The apartment is very clean and cute. Loved the shower and the decor. Getting the key fob was a chore. I am barely over five foot tall and couldn't reach the lockbox. Also, I wouldn't suggest using the parking space unless you are young and small. The spiral staircase is tiny. Tall people or people with bad knees or whatever would find it very difficult to use. The space is charming, but the bed was very squeaky. The cute fireplace did not work. The location is ideal for downtown evevts and using skywalk. The price was right.
Everything was very secure, we felt very safe. If you can follow instructions itâs a peace of cake. Next time we are in Des Moine we will be calling.
Right in the middle of downtown Des Moines. Walking distance to Wells Fargo arena. Botanical garden nearby. Instructions to enter were clear, and once inside, everything was perfect. The bed is amazing. I love a firm bed. No wiggle transfer when you change positions. The floor is a bit cold, so bring slippers! The street is a bit loud. Perfect view of the sunrise!!
This is a spacious and roomy apartment...bright with plenty of windows. The full kitchen + washer and dryer were a big plus for our five night stay. The bed is comfortable and the apartment is fully stocked with everything you might need. It is only one block to a full-service grocery/drug market. There are dozens of great restaurants within a few blocks. The off-street parking is secure. We were completely impressed.
Clean, cute, just like the photos. A bit complicated with parking garage and key fob and codes, etc. The apartment is a good mile from âEast Villageâ though so there was lots of walking involved to the other side of the riverâŠ. I would suggest more amenities to offer. There were 4 kurig cups of coffee for the two of us for a 2 night stay, had to run to Hyvee and buy more! Added touches go a long way with VRBO stays, this was more bare bones. But Iâd still recommend it to others as long as you know itâs a 9th floor studio in the heart of downtown!
The building had a great old charm to it. The location is amazing and centered close to bars and restaurants. The place was clean and charming. The property manager was great, walked us through finding the keys and parking which was very helpful. He also always answered the phone, was attentive and even offered some restaurant choices
Wife and I was visiting from IL to attend the state fair. This place was perfect for us. It is located in walking distance from so many night life activities and food options. The room is very clean and we had everything we needed for our stay. The private off street parking garage was a plus. I highly recommend booking this location and we will definitely be staying again when we return.
I stayed here with my daughter for a swim meet. It was great to have a close place to everything we needed. It was a quick and easy skywalk or outside walk to the pool, coffee, and grocery store. Nice to also have a kitchen and washing machine and a very clean, bright place. Will consider staying again for future visits.
Great place, right in the heart of Des Moines. Easy walking to everywhere including the Botanical gardens. Very prompt response from owner/manager. Highly recommend
We loved the apartment, very cozy, amazing location! The apartment was spacious and comfy, we loved watching movies on the couch with the projector! The farmers market was about 50 feet from the door which was super convenient! Overall our experience was awesome!
