Shilo Inn - Boise Riverside Reviews

Our room smelled like cigarette smoke though it was non-smoking. Our shower curtain had mold on it and the wifi speed was dial up speed. This hotel is old and delivers what would be expected for the price.

The hotel was dirty, smelled like cigarettes smoke and pet urine.

While the staff was extremely friendly, it did not make up for the dingy conditions. The hotel is in need of some major over hauls and a good deep cleaning. Our room was not what I consider clean. Dirt build up along the baseboards, dirty walls, shower dingy, and the sink was broken. There was also some type of high school event going on and they put us in a room on the ground floor right next to the exit and stairs. Our family did not sleep at all!! When we took the kids to go swim we discovered that the pool was disgusting. I will never stay here again.

Room itself was okay as far as being clean. Noticed a hair in the shower not of my making. The door was difficult to open. Almost couldn't open it trying to get out the last day. If I were a little old lady I would have definitely been stuck.

The... THE... best thing about the Shilo Riverside is that it is (truly IS) on the Boise River, right on the wonderful riverside walking and cycling path that connects a lovely string of parks all the way across town. We asked for and got a third floor room facing the river. Our view, with sliding glass door and balcony, was full of trees with glimpses of the river and a grand view of the walkers, strollers, runners, and cyclists using the fantastic path along the river. That river frontage and easy access to the bike path is why we chose the Shilo, and we're very glad we did. The Shilo is just a few minutes from downtown via car or bike and maybe 15 minutes if walking. The path is interesting, safe, and attractive all the way, a real PLUS for the up and coming capital city of Idaho.

It was not clean. There were spiders and cobwebs in the window sills, and other maintenance problems. That The beds were reasonably comfortable is the only positive thing I can say about it.

Not really close to BSU. Old facility with large rooms and decent beds.

Room through expidia was wrong, room was not up to minmuim standard. Overall hotel condition was poor. Love the location, hotel needs upgraded in a bad way!!!!

I had a two day stay at the Riverside Shilo for a conference being held at a nearby hotel with higher room rates. The room was clean and updated.

The Shilo Inn is a nice hotel, but don't expect too much. If all you are looking for is a clean place to sleep for a night or two, this is the place. Simple rooms, simple breakfast, simple "workout" room.
