The Modern is my favorite hotel in Boise. The staff is nice, the design is great, the restaurant and bar are excellent. I recommend that every one stay here, unless I am in Boise and need a room. The Modern is the illest!

Modern had a great vibe. Staff is insanely competent and friendly. Great bar. The place probably isn't for everyone but for a "transformed" travellodge motel it is pretty damn cool. I'd stay again and very easy access to the airport and access to the freeways around Boise. And a 5 minute walk from all the trendy restaurants.

What a delightful hotel right in the heart of downtown Boise. The staff and service was first rate — friendly, professional, informed people. Had a delicious dinner at their restaurant (yum!) and the complimentary breakfast was terrific. Everything worked like a charm — good air conditioning, pristine room, etc. If I get back to Boise, I will stay at the Modern again. terrific!!
