Tall ceiling and lots of sunshine. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen clean. Felt like a home away from home. The view of the capital building was a fun little plus. The lock box to get into the building was a bit difficult, but once inside it was fairly easy. Close walk to restaurants, bars, and parking garages. Would stay again. ##### Deirdre R.

Dan was great and quick at communicating with us. Dan gave us ideas for parking and places to see. Read the direction for check in and check out carefully which will result in easy entry when you arrive. Location is near restaurants and a short walk to the Cubs Stadium. The apartment with clean smelled fresh. We'd definitely stay here again! ##### Tom C. Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Tony M. 30 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Good sized apartment in downtown Des Moines Nice, open concept living area was nice. Good sized bedrooms with high ceilings. Bathroom is a little small for sharing with four people, but that is to be expected in a downtown apartment. Good location with on street metered parking available right next to the building. Apartment was in general clean, but some areas could use a deep clean (older carpet and dusty baseboards). Overall, we enjoyed the space and our stay. Would recommend it to others. ##### Tony M. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dusty L. 26 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect for farmers market We travel for the farmers market every Memorial weekend since 2019 and the hotels locally were just outrageous this year. Happen to check VRBO and this listing was available. 2 blocks walk to the market, few blocks to nice restaurants and parking. Secure entrance and convenient to the elevator. Space was perfect for us. Small but not too small but not big either. Four of us stayed and were very comfortable. Highly recommend this location ##### Dusty L. Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shaunna H. 6 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Will be back! Overall great apt! Communication was great! Check in wasn't ideal- requested early check in- 1 hour, as we had an athletic event that started at check in. It didn't work out- which is fine, but getting keys late at night and being approached by a few men asking for money wasn't a good start. Floors/counters could have been cleaned better. I was told it was b/c I asked for early check in, but that didn't happen so I feel they could have done better. Section of a rug was a trip hazard- we put a chair over it, so we didn't go that way. Layout was great and spacious. Kitchen was stocked with pans and other items to cook all our meals. Location was great- walkable to hyvee and our events. Skywalk was a little tricky, one set of doors shows 'unlocked until 6pm', but was always locked. This property manager is always quick to respond- we will def be back. ##### Shaunna H. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jessica L. 13 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Spacious and modern Apartment is very nice on the inside. Large rooms with tall windows. Not all windows have shades on them so that was a little uncomfortable. Kitchen has limited cooking utensils and pots/pans which was a disadvantage for us as we were wanting to make meals. No toaster to be found also. Location wise: entrance is not well marked and difficult to find. Not much for street side parking to unload your things if traveling with many bags/small children. There was a good amount of homeless people hanging around building but the building has double doors with FOB access that have 3 check points for security so that made us feel very safe. Host was very accommodating and responsive. Would stay here again. ##### Jessica L. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cydnee G. 20 May 2025 ##### Cydnee G.
