Downtown boise
Cool modern hotel close enough for walking to dinnner and shops. Room was comfortable and good value. Only down side is the barn door on the bathroom, Not a great deal of privacy for sound or light when sharing a room

The Sparrow was Delightful
Charming and personal hotel in downtown Boise. It's a great place to stay for a short visit. Friendly and helpful staff, cute lobby/coffee shop, and comfy beds. The included 'prize fighter' style bathrobes in the room were cozy and fun! I recommend this property. Parking was very convenient.

Good, Great after construction is done
Great cost effective option in a convenient part of downtown. Walkable to many great restaurants and shops. The only issue was the current construction across the street which started early and ended late in the day.

8/10 Very good

Nice location near downtown. Very clean, new condition, nice staff. Comfey bed and soft sheets. Wi-Fi did not work well. Decor is very minimalist, stark, like a dorm room, hard chairs and no place to have food or a drink, so not super comfortable. Otherwise a nice place to stay.

Clean and comfortable
The room was very clean and comfortable. Sheets were buttery soft. The bunk beds were full size, so plenty big enough for adults too. Also the pictures online make the room look smaller than it actually is. It was perfect for 3 of us friends to share for a girls night in Boise!
