As a person who builds apps for customers who don't care about flashiness and only want a working useful app. I'm right there with you.

I've gotten compliments from customers on how good my bog standard bootstrap sites look.

Having websites look and feel similar to other familiar sites is a good thing.

That and the collosal amount of testing bootstrap gets in the real world, it means you run into far fewer niggles and edge cases so you project a sense of precision even if the UI bit is a bit bland.
As a full stack dev that doesn't really have time to deal with CSS, I'm really glad bootstrap exists (and things like wrapbootstrap.com)
