A couple of suggestions- 1) a full size refrigerator; 2) a closer, designated parking spot (wintertime); 3) the bedroom with sitting area - needs darker shades or curtains - street lights were too bright - way too much light coming in ##### John B.

This house was exactly what we expected based on the photos and description. We have young children who enjoyed the third-floor bedroom. We were a little concerned about the bar next door, but it was not noisy or disruptive at all. The owner was very responsive and helpful. We were able to walk to nice little restaurants and it was very centrally located for activities. Would stay here again if we ever needed to return to Dubuque. ##### Lindsey M.

It was nice to have 1 reserved parking spot. We decided at the last minute not to bring our dogs. The host was willing to work with us for a refund on the pet fee, but we are still working to resolve the issue as the customer service was having technical issues and host was unable to figure out how to fix on their end. We enjoyed our stay. It was hot in the upper rooms compared to the lower level, but host did provide many fans. Would stay again. ##### Amy B. Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bill S. 4 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Very nice place 👍 We’d thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Everything was clean. Checking in was a breeze. Bedrooms are on the 2nd and 3rd floors, so be sure stairs aren’t an issue for you. Also make a shower plan. With one bathroom, it was a challenge for the 7 of us to get out on time 😁 There isn’t a stove, but they have a full size fridge now👍 If you’re a really light sleeper, you might have an issue with the weekend crowd at the bar across the parking lot. But overall, we really enjoyed our stay with our 5 adults and two young kids. ##### Bill S.
