Sleepover | Charming 1BD/1BA - Downtown Des Moines

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect spot for my needs. I am a retired traveler, and this place had everything I needed. The photos are accurate, the apartment was very clean, and everything worked properly. It is in a great location with plenty of restaurants and nightlife within walking distance (the Thai restaurant in the building was a huge bonus). It is in walking distance of the Capitol Building, the sculpture garden, and Gray's Lake. It is on a major surface road, but there was zero noise in the apartment. All-in-all, just a great spot to be. I would certainly stay there again. I really enjoyed it."
