Idaho Downtown | Safe, Clean & Shockingly Affordable!

🛍️👟Just spent a few days exploring downtown Boise and here’s the real tea: This might be one of the most underrated city centers in the U.S.! Safe, walkable, and surprisingly quiet – in a good way. 🏙️ First Impressions: Clean & peaceful – Very few homeless people, especially compared to other downtown areas Stores close early – Most shopping centers shut by 7 PM ⏰ Low sales tax – Only 6%?! No wonder shopping feels like a hack 💸 🏨 Riverside Hotel Review: We stayed at the Riverside Hotel – great location right by the river and connected to a beautiful park trail 🌳🚶‍♀️ ✅ Spacious rooms ❌ Facilities feel a bit dated 🛍️ Shopping Haul Alert! Boise’s malls might be quiet, but the deals are loud! I walked out with FIVE new pairs of shoes 👟👠🥿 – all heavily discounted, plus that sweet 6% tax. Basically felt like legal theft 😭💘 💬 Final Take: Boise’s downtown is perfect if you love: Relaxed city vibes Nature trails within steps Guilt-free shopping Not the place for wild nightlife, but 10/10 for safe, slow, satisfying travels. #US #ID #Boise
