Very nice decoration, super safe. Everything we need was there good size rooms. Thank you!
Stay was terrific and exactly as advertised! Condo was clean and nicely decorated. Perfect and comfortable accommodations for our family of 5. We would most definitely stay here again!
The location was perfect, we attended the Iowa Basketball Games as Wells Arena and could walk to the venue, parking was close and lost of restaurants close by.
We spent the weekend in Des Moines visiting our daughter. Our family enjoyed using the game room in the basement. The building itself was exceptionally secure. The beds were comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Very comfortable for my daughter and I. No issues with parking and we felt very safe here. Thank you for a great space to come back to after a long, exhausting day of dance!
I'm a travel nurse that works night shift and this apartment was perfect. It was quiet and the bed was very comfortable. One of the bedrooms does not have windows which is perfect for a day sleeper. I will definitely stay here again if available.
The condo was exactly as advertised. It was very clean and centrally located in downtown Des Moines near the locations our event was occurring. The host communicated well and check-n and check-out were very easy.

Property is quiet. A little tricky to navigate but they provide good directions.
We did a girls trip for the Shania Twain concert and this was the perfect location! We were able to walk everywhere and it was very clean and safe area of town. The parking garage across the street was perfect as well. The only issue we had was with the key fobs - they were tricky to use in the elevator and we got stuck on the 7th floor.
Property had a cool industrial feel and the condo was nice, but the rest of the property has not been maintained well. Neighborhood was great. Check-in was easy.
We needed a quick overnight stop on the way from Denver to West Michigan that would allow pets. We arrived very late and getting in was a breeze. The apartment was very nice, easily accessible, and just down the street from a great bakery/coffee shop for our early departure. Just what we needed. Would happily stay again.
We only stayed on night but it was perfect, The apt was clean, in a good area and close enough to several restaurants, breweries, some tourist spots and a DG for last minute items. Beds were comfy and location of bedrooms provided privacy. We would definitely stay there again if ever in the area. Host was.very responsive and provided clear instructions. Thank you
Description online was very accurate. More then enough supplies stocked and very clean! Will definitely stay again if we ever need to go to the Civic Center again! Super quick walk to get there and very convenient.
I would recommend packing food and drinks. There are vending machines but the snack one was empty. My own fault for not planning ahead better. But just a note for the next person!
