    We stayed in the room with a queen bed and bunk beds. The room was clean and well laid out, the bathroom looked very new and everything worked, nothing leaked. We didn’t try the little Nintendo gaming machine that was plugged into the tv but I thought that was a nice touch. They didn’t have parking available for my stay but it was probably cheaper to park in the street anyways - it’s less than $4 to park from 8am to noon, and we were out by then, and didn’t come back to the hotel until after the street parking is free at night. The lobby cafe was reasonably priced.

    Great spot! Would recommend. Like staying in an apartment not a hotel, great location.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Perfect location downtown Boise, price was fabulous, parking onsite and everything else was walking distance. We love getting to stay downtown when we are in town for shows.

    Stayed there on our way...

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Proximity to everything that we wanted to do! We loved it all, but reported one small issue with noisy plumbing that woke me a couple of times overnight.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Sparrow was awesome. Unique character hotel in heart of downtown walking distance to everything. Staff was very friendly

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    The location, the look, the restaurant. All great! I loved everything. Only very minor things I wished were different. The bathroom door was a barn style sliding door and it was difficult to close. Also the full length mirror was behind the door and hard to get to. I wish there was a mirror in the room

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    It had such a cozy, unique feel and was the perfect place for our little Boise getaway. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Boise! ✨

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Super clean, night staff was super helpful and all amenities worked properly. I’ll stay again

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    It is in downtown walking distance which was a plus. But at check in I found the throw not clean there was all kinds of human and dog hair. Probably hasn’t been washed ever. They charge for parking and the spots are so small that if there is a bigger car there’s a chance you can’t get into your assigned spot. It’s was renovated but wish there was at least a full length mirror. The air conditioner was stuck on 67 I kept trying to raise the temperature but it wouldn’t change.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Very friendly staff always willing to help and make your experience even better. Location is perfect right in the heart of Boise. Very good coffee spot for breakfast.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Everything There were two things on my receipt when I checked out that I was not expecting. Charge for parking&our two waters. We were never told we would be charged. I would appreciate those items being refunded if possible.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Slept in. The AC noise was too loud. We finally figured out how to disable to system.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    The location was perfect, close to restaurants, bars and walkability to the extent that a car was not needed. The air conditioning was a bit noisy but ear plugs were provided

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Exceptional

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    I liked the size of the room. The person who checked us in was friendly and welcoming. Everything was clean and organized The parking lot is small, and the parking stalls were also too small. No resturant on site.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Stylish hotel with well appointed rooms Charges for parking but let us park our motorcycles in a safe spot for free

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Superb

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Cute little hotel. Very clean, modern and comfortable. Front staff was very accommodating for our large van we had to park over the weekend. Forgot my toothbrush and was able to get one of those as well. Amazing dinners within walking distance and felt very safe. Will stay again next year for sure.
