This place was great. The room was spacious. The hotel was right across the street from the beautiful waterful in Idaho Falls. The room was quiet. The breakfast was the best we had on a 16-day trip, and the person cleaning and supplying in the breakfast room was diligent. The omelet you could order was delicious.

Wonderful location, clean room, comfortable bed, great shower, loved the breakfast as well as the friendly and helpful staff. Appreciated the beautiful hot tub and the nice exercise room as well. The basics were covered so very well here! Don't expect absolute perfection (room chair was well worn but still fuctional - the parking in one area is just a bit tricky at certain times because of the required turn around, but there were always plenty of spaces). The essentials were covered so very well here that this will be our go to place when visiting idaho falls.

I really miss the era when hotels had kettles, the coffee machines never boil the water hot enough. The stay was great, easy check in and out. Room good size, amenities all there and shower great. Parked the car directly outside the room - great. Location couldn't be better, quiet area. Woken up in morning to the ducks - marvellous, lovely view and walk along river and falls.
