About The 208

The 208 Apartments is a new and welcoming student community located in the heart of Boise! Away from the cramped dorms on campus, we strive to provide affordable, independent student living only one block away from BSU! From fully furnished rooms that include all utilities, to the private courtyard and friendly staff, everything at The 208 is catered to the needs of our student residents. Recently we have been developing the community with updated roofs, paint, furniture, and more! A state of the art security system and new laundry equipment were installed in Spring 2019. New package lockers and an Amazon HUB package locker were installed in Fall 2019, and our office and courtyard remodel were completed this year!

The 208 is an apartment community located in Ada County and the 83706 ZIP Code. This area is served by the Boise Independent District attendance zone.

Neighborhood

Situated at the heart of Idaho's largest city, downtown Boise combines the amenities of a modern city with the warmth and safety of a small community. During the day, the wide streets buzz with professionals. In the evening, the restaurants and bars near the intersection of West Idaho Street and North 8th Street come alive with live music and outdoor dining. Residents enjoy a range of housing options, from sleek apartments near the commercial area to single-family homes on the surrounding residential streets.

After work, residents head to Bittercreek Ale House for a draft beer and a locally-sourced, grass-fed lamb burger — for an indulgent snack, try the poutine, a local favorite. When you want an active evening, go for a run in the spacious Julia Davis Park and pause to watch people tubing down the Boise River. Well-maintained sidewalks and dedicated bike lanes enable safe walking and biking around the compact neighborhood.
