1st room, 1st night=85 degrees, no way to adjust it. Room 348 2nd room, 2nd night=no heat at all, and the watermain broke in hotel. All guests had to evacuate at 11pm. Room 470 3rd morning = the shower in my room wouldn't work, so no shower on the way to the airport. The staff was so very nice, and polite. Wonderful! Corporate is really letting them down by providing this absolute crap to work with. As it is, I cut my stay in half because of the conditions. It seems to me that I should be reimubursed for the whole stay.

The history of this hotel is great. New guests need to be brought up to the real of status of the Red Lion Chain. And the staff are excellent. Prices are best I have seen in years. This puts me back into some travel into the new year. Also the connection to Sonesta seems to be a great partnership. Thanks

There was a spot on the ceiling that looked like had a leak…. Did not look very good. Also had toilet paper stuck to the ceiling not sure what that was about?… when I went to use the tap water it came out as the darkest brown color water I’ve ever seen and I’ve been to Mexico… definitely expected much better from a red lion hotel.

We checked in and checked right out. This property has not been cared for in years. There were water leaks everywhere, it’s smelled horrific and the water in our bathroom faucet came out as brown as dirt. This hotel should not be offered on your site. We’ve requested a refund because we had to pay to stay somewhere else. The owners of this hotel should be ashamed of themselves.

I only live about 45 minutes away so this is always my go to spot to stay at when in Boise for concerts! Rooms are always clean and comfortable and I say that as a former housekeeping supervisor for a hotel chain. Always a good stay here, but my girl Serena at the front desk? GIVE HER A RAISE!!! She remembered my boyfriend and I from a stay back in September. Remembered that I like a fan in the room, and when my airhead self left my hydroflask at the front desk she happily brought it up to my room. Definitely will always recommend this hotel, and if Serena helps you it’ll be an even better stay! Thank you! :)
