Nice place, clean and roomy for us. Wifi was a bit spotty but overall an excellent place to stage for a trip to DSM.

Quick visit

This was a great quiet location for my family and I while we visited Des Moines for a concert. We were able to walk everywhere and our host was helpful and accessible.

Great Location in Des Moines

Enjoyed our stay - within walking distance to several breweries / restaurants. Place is clean (but definitely an older house so keep that in mind). Communication with the property manager was smooth. Thanks!

Good location

Good space. Great location. House was clean however, the vent in the bathroom and the one in thebliving room floor had huge amounts of dust that made my allergies very very bad. The house could do with a good duct cleaning. It is otherwisw charming. Host was lovely.

Cozy place on the edge of downtown

Our family stayed for a long weekend and this cozy place was a good place to relax and slow down. It was also a good starting point for enjoying what Des Moines and the Des Moines area has to offer! And there are some fun restaurants a very easy walk from the place if you want to treat yourself.

Excellent location!

This home is in an up and coming neighborhood near a lot of great restaurants and coffee shops. Great access to bicycle trails and a short drive to many parks, lakes, and trails. Beautiful yard and updated older home. We would stay here again.
