Colorful and welcoming

So cute and welcoming! Had everything I needed. Loved how bright and colorful it was. Bed was super comfortable too! Best night's sleep I've had in a while! Balcony was a great spot to sit and have my morning coffee.

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 !

I loved this boho beach-feel space. It was so comfortable and convenient. It displays so much TLC and care put into the home. I’ll stay there again.

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.
