Dorothy's place is cute, cozy and comfortable. It is on a very quiet street in a nice neighborhood. It is located about an 8 - 10 minute walk to the greenbelt and Boise River and about a 5 minute drive from Whole Foods and Winco Grocery stores. It is also well stocked for cooking. Dorothy is a great host - highly recommended.
