The Sparrow Hotel downtown Boise Idaho
The hotel is centrally located in downtown Boise, and is within walking distance (10 minutes) of the capitol. There are many restaurants and shops nearby as well. Unfortunately for my stay, there is a new building under construction across the street, so it was a bit noisier than I was used to, and my stay was from March 13-16, 2025. I enjoyed the location and proxmity to so many food options and entertainment options.
