Had to cancel at last minute
Didn't stay there. VRBO said pet friendly. Property owner said no to pets. Was helping daughter move from New York with 2 pets to Washington State. We didn't notice property only took service animals until the day before. We had one service animal and one other pet.It was an expensive rental. Gave us $25 back. We felt ripped off.

Highly recommend!
We had an excellent one-night stay at the flat! The space was clean, charming, and short walking distance to the capitol building and downtown. The host went above and beyond to ensure our stay was seamless.
Easily one of the cleanest properties in which I've stayed (and I am a 'neat-freak', so my bar is pretty high). Close / walking distance to tons of great cafes, pubs, restaurants, shops, museums, river walk etc.

short stay in Boise
Everything was exactly as expected- comfortable beds, an adequate kitchen. The location was perfect; we walked downtown several times. The floors were a bit creaky, but that was expected in a house this old. Thank you!

Great getaway for two
The old home was very charming. My wife and I stayed for four nights and enjoyed every minute of it, despite daily rain showers. We enjoyed our coffee each morning in the little nook and planned our day. Most days, we walked all over downtown and found all sorts of fun places to spend time. It's such a clean city. The owners checked on us via message and were exceptionally welcoming. When the time comes, we will return to this home again!
