Stayed 7 days in this perfect, cozy, little apartment above a garage. Very bright, lots of windows, tall ceilings, charming. Well-stocked kitchen, Keurig coffee maker, etc. Albertson's is very close. Fun time in Boise !

Boise stay
My daughter and I stayed one night while touring BSU. It was a quick car ride to the college and downtown. Kate's place was easy to find, had great parking, CLEAN and super cute. We had a little hiccup that happened but Kate was AMAZING and handled it promptly and professionally. I would definitely stay here again and most likely will! Thank you, Kate

Good times.
Cute place. Nice, quiet neighborhood location. Everything is clean and comfortable. Nicely appointed kitchen. It is on the 2nd floor with outside staircase leading up to it. Host communication can be improved. No actual address was given in the instructions (took neighbor’s house number from the listing picture and plugged into google maps). The entry code wasn’t sent until after we arrived at the property and called/texted the owner and waited 15 minutes. All the anxiety could have been easily avoided if the code was e-mailed/texted earlier that day. All that said the owner had some unusual circumstances (having a baby?) so hopefully this is an exception and not the rule.

Bright and sunny
This property was in an excellent location. I wish I would have found and booked it before I booked hotels for us previous nights. The kitchen and laundry make it a superb spot to hunker down for a few days during travel. Kate was highly responsive and helpful. Plus, this little place is a gem. So cheery!
