Overall this was great! We stayed in a suite and it was wonderful!! The only negative was that the floors were dirty. I got out of the shower and walked across the bathroom floor and my feet were almost black on the bottom. Wiped up some water with the towel and clearly very dirty. Maybe because the floors are so dark that this gets missed but that was an issue for me. Everything else was fantastic! I would still recommend this mohel.

The staff was helpful and friendly(top notch!), the room was clean and decorated pleasingly, but our stay was a little uncomfortable because of the noise we could hear (neighboring rooms and trains) and we didn't sleep well in the bed.

Wonderful Surprise
We’ve stayed at a number of hotels in Idaho Falls. We will definitely come back here. It is a very cute, beautifully decorated motel with wonderful, friendly staff and a great location. It is close to downtown and directly across the street from the River Walk and a gorgeous park along the river. The rooms are tight but nicely decorated and remodeled. The breakfast is unusual, in that it has upgraded food from what you usually get at “free breakfast” hotels and offers each guest access to an Omelette Station, where you can have eggs made to your preference by an on-site cook. We will definitely return. A lovely place and a great stay.
