Boise Guest House

Top choice in Boise


A veritable home away from home, this appealing old house has a handful of contemporary-styled suites with kitchenettes and living areas comfortably arranged and tastefully decorated. All rooms have access to the large grill in the relaxing backyard, red-and-white cruiser bikes and laundry.

The more creaky 'Annex' a few blocks north is surrounded by an urban vegetable garden.
