This is hands-down the best apartment complex for the money, period end. The building has undergone some anomalous maintenance problems, but now that thatâs behind us â thereâs no better value proposition in downtown Boise. This location has too much going for it to not be considered a serious option for those looking to live in downtown Boiseâ¦
1) Trader Joeâs is DIRECTLY across the street (say goodbye to having to plan grocery runs and play âParking Lot Tetrisâ).
2) <5 min walk from all the best bars and restaurants.
3) Locked indoor bike storage with tools & air pumps for bikes.
4) Rooftop deck with a grill and fire pit.
..As someone who moved to Boise from out of state, I found that living in the Vanguard unlocked the ability to enjoy everything downtown Boise has to offer - staying in close proximity to nightlife, downtown events, and mountain biking trails. This allowed me to network, meet people, and become established. Lastly, The building staff are excellent and very accommodating. I would highly encourage anyone to live here. If you find yourself on the fence, stop in and talk to the staff - theyâre more than happy to show you around!!
