Reviews for Safari Inn Downtown Boise

Review 1：They allow smokers to smoke on steps to the rooms...smells like your walking in ash tray. Charged $200.00 for room deposit in case you destroy your room....seemed excesive

Review 2：Booked queen bed, got a tiny (cosy?) double. Breakfast was a bit sad, although we didn't expect much. Nothing worth complaining about.

Review 3：Location, location, location. Hotel is basic, but pleasant.

Review 4：There is not enough parking so we park on the street. They do have overflow parking across the street.

Review 5：It was comfortable and quiet. Breakfast was okay but not great. Convenient to downtown.

Review 6：The shower couldn't figure out what temperature to be. The breakfast was lacking. But that stuff isn't really that important anyways. Still a great place!

Review 7：The location was great, and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful.

Review 8：Noise in the wee hours of the morning. Not the fault of the hotel though, but construction making lots of noise next to the Safari Inn.

Review 9：Location - downtown

Review 10：the assistant manager checked us in and was very rude and seemed bored with her job...the breakfast left much to be desired.

Review 11：The location was great and the rooms were very clean!

Review 12：Had some issues with the shower water holding a temp... went from hot to cold. I never thought to mention it when I left. Not sure if it was a water pressure issue or what. Breakfast was a bit sparse when I got there but adequate.

Review 13：Bed was comfortable, room was quiet. NO problems or issues with checkout. Floors were clean. I always check mattresses and it looked brand new. I always love the giraffe in the lobby. LOL For the area, the price was the cheapest and I trust it to be clean.

Review 14：The handicap facilities were inadequate. There was only a grab bar in the bathtub which didn't help you get out of the tub and the toilet paper roll was quite a reach for a handicapped person.

Review 15：Close to everything, very comfortable, all the employees were very friendly, very pet friendly.

Review 16：Not very comfortable..small parking area . Shower and sink way too low. I am a bit of a hotel brat...usually stay at Marriot Hotels or The Hilton so my opinion is a little biased

Review 17：Friendly Staff

Review 18：Staff was less than charming, one girl at check in counter was obviously disapproving of lesbians. Was very short and had an attitude. I will still stay at this hotel again, though, price is one of cheapest for the quality and location.

Review 19：Price and location

Review 20：The parking was a bit cramped to get in and out of especially during a busy weekend like BSU graduation.

Review 21：When you book a hotel downtown you always figure there will be noise from the city, however I was pleasantly surprised how quiet my room was. My room was facing 11th street and the noise was hardly noticeable. The room was extremely comfortable and clean. A bit outdated with decor but that wasn't a problem since it didn't smell like it was an older hotel. Very pet friendly and appreciate the friendly front desk staff.

Review 22：The bed was very uncomfortable. Motel's Parking for ones vehicle is very constrained. However if one doesn't mind walking, just park your car in motel's lot and venture out to a variety of Boise's downtown venues and restaurants.

Review 23：We liked the proximity to great eateries. Great choices for eating out is all in walking distance of the Safari Inn. We liked the Farmer's Market across from the motel on Saturday mornings. If you want more, walk to the town center for more.

Review 24：Bath was dirty/hair. Pulled bed down, found water bottle on the floor by bed. Bath sink drain was VERY slow/plugged. Asked about a different room, was told no because of booking through booking.com. no refund.

Review 25：The location is good if you need to be downtown. I have stayed here previously and was pleased. Not the same experience this time.

Review 26：Noisy neighbors (not the hotel's fault), breakfast and coffee not very good. Parking was a nightmare. TV was minuscule. Basically the draw of this place is that it's in downtown Boise, and the ride on that alone. Not much effort is made otherwise.

Review 27：Right in the middle of downtown Boise, close to all the bars and restaurants. You can park your car and see the sights on foot.

Review 28：Room was cleaned well except for coffee bar area; was restocked but not cleaned up.

Review 29：Close to great restaurants and not really far from anything you'd like to do in the city. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. So happy over how quiet the air conditioner/heater was and how well it worked.

Review 30：My only item to wish was different was the showerhead. Admittedly I'm a snob here, but both the height of the head and the power of the spray would have been better for me if the head were higher and the water flow more powerful. That said however I showered just fine and the water flow was enough to get my hair rinsed well. :)

Review 31：We were less than a five minute walk to the Grove, where our conference was held. The Inn's location couldn't have been better! Pillows were plentiful and the beds very comfortable; everything was so clean!

Review 32：had to walk too far from parking to room, and had to walk across the parking lot, and across the street to take my dog out to go to the bathroom...

Review 33：helpfulness of staff

Review 34：I have stayed here a few times. This place is within walking distance of all the downtown attractions. A good clean comfortable room and you can't beat the value.

Review 36：location, well priced for what you got

Review 37：They could improve the selection at the breakfast.

Review 38：Great location. This motel has really improved over what they were like a few years ago. The location is great, right in the heart of downtown, and the staff was very friendly.

Review 39：the continental breakfast had no variety. It wasn't very good

Review 40：love the location, most amenities, clean, comfortable beds, always stay there when I go to Boise.

Review 41：My Doctors office faxed paperwork twice in order for me to get a discount on my room. The girl at the front desk said that it did not show up without even looking. I had to come back to the hotel after my appt. I usually would not mind but was on a limited income to have my daughter see a specialist.

Review 42：The staff is usually friendly. The rooms and facilities are always great.

Review 43：Breakfast selection very limited (bread items, yogurt, fruit cup), and for two days there was no yogurt at all. Rooms and corridors had stale odor, carpet and upholstery needed cleaning.

Review 100：Cigarette ashes on the blanket. Makeup on the sheets near the pillows. Stairwells had a bad smell, like a funeral home.

Review 101：Location near downtown was walking distance

Review 102：The property description does not mention that "Mulligan's Pub and Eatery" with outdoor seating was right next to some rooms. Extremely loud crowd and music until 2 AM. Staff was "aware and sorry" but their wi-fi "for some reason doesn't work properly with Apple products" (iPad /iPhones) Sometimes it would work - other times "no internet connection" Had to use public computer in lobby several times.

Review 103：Friendly helpful staff - excellent downtown location

Review 104：yesterday when checking out around 6:10 am, nobody was at the counter for almost 10 minutes. he was in the bathroom. Thinking he might have been ill, I asked how he was feeling. he said "better than you." Took me aback a little.

Review 105：location and price is reason we stay here.

Review 106：Breakfast was skeletal, although I did arrive later during the time period.

Review 107：Pleasantly surprised for a modest-priced facility. Location is excellent -- downtown close to restaurants, freeway, everything.

Review 108：The staff are always friendly. I appreciate that when I have meetings scheduled nearby the Safari allows me to park my car in the morning before I am able to check in.

Review 109：Our room was RIGHT next to a very loud bar. Even with out window closed you could hear the bar all night very loud and hard to sleep. Continental breakfast was not good. It was one small cabinet of stale bread products and pastries.

Review 112：Loved the location and convenience!

Review 113：Room #363 Wi-Fi was sporadic or difficult to use (more access points on the network might fix this). Cable TV reception was not satisfactory, especially for local channels.

Review 114：Room #363. I liked having the daily local newspaper available rather than USA Today. Coffee always available. Adequate breakfast selection. Helpful staff. Good location.

Review 119：Noise transmission from room to room may be a little higher than some.

Review 120：Location convenient to my meeting, near by restaurants outstanding, staff were polite and helpful. Cleanliness was exemplary.

Review 121：The room needs updated regarding the lamp shades, wall paper in the bathroom and overall maintenance The TV didn't come in too well on some stations and that was probably the cause of a really old coaxial cable The "breakfast" was non existent at 7am
