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!

Perfect Stay in Downtown Boise
The Sparrow was the perfect find for my stay in Boise. The staff is super welcoming and friendly, the entire hotel is so clean and trendy, and the location is perfect for walking around downtown. Highly recommend staying here!
