Great little suite
Check in was easy, communication was great. All the necessary amenities. I was staying for work and mostly ate out so I can't really say how the kitchenette was supplied. Bed was very comfortable!

Great place and great location
Spent one night here while driving across the west. Found this property and it was perfect. The location is minutes from all that downtown Boise had to offer.
The space itself is clean, well appointed and feels very relaxing and zen. Plush bath towels, wonderful bed with plenty of pillows and a kitchenette that was really well thought out and useful. I’d recommend for a solo traveler or a couple for sure.

Perfect get away!
This place was wonderful!! The bathroom is amazingly spacious, the unit keeps a great temperature very easily, the kitchenette was just what I needed for a shorter stay, and the bedroom was quiet and extremely comfortable! The owner, is super friendly and very conscious of noises and very responsive for requests!
