Weekend Getaway

We had a wonderful time at this downtown loft. We were close enough to walk to some classic Des Moines attractions: farmers market, Science Center, Wasabi Tao. The community room and exercise room were excellent! And our host was helpful and communicative. Perfect trip!

Perfect Stay, Thoughtful Amenities

Everything about this property exceeded my expectations. And for a price that cannot be beat. I instantly felt right at home. I have zero complaints. Everything was clean, including the fridge and sheets on the bed. All amenities were taken care of. It's the little things that I appreciated as well, like a clean and full brita water pitcher. Thank you Daniel, it made my visit to Des Moines stress free. I have already recommended to all.

Cute modern place

It was a cute modern place. Definitely downtown vibe if you like that. It was Definitely different not being able to see out the windows but worked for the 2 days we were there. Laundry detergent was very strong on the towels and bed sheets... if you are sensitive to smells. Otherwise the place was clean and nicely decorated. Parking ramp was close to building and we used the sky ramp to walk over. There was a washer and dryer in the apartment. Nice sushi restaurant a couple blocks down.

Awesome!

We normally stick with hotels but thought being able to cook meals during our son's state championship would come in very handy. But after staying in this apt, I don't think I'll stay at a hotel anymore! It was very handy to cook every meal and for our son to have his own room for quality rest. Easy access to the connected skywalk. Easy check in / out instructions and the host was very quick to respond to any questions. We Plan to come back this summer when our kids will have another competition.
