While a studio, the stay offers a full kitchen, complete with baking utensils and pans, and it is very conveniently located in the heart of Des Moines. The bed was comfy, the shower strong, and soaps, shampoos and other bathroom articles were provided.

Great studio in a great location! Easy access to the skywalk which was perfect in the winter weather to get to the Arena. The studio was quiet, well furnished, and comfortable. Easy check in and check out with lots of parking (paid) options close by.

The host Emily was so attentive to our needs, worked with us when we had a last minute schedule change, and was always willing to go the extra mile. Thank you so much for all the support to make my daughter’s and my weekend go smoothly. Plus, the space is the cutest.

There were things in the kitchen that we could have used. The only downfall was the listing stated enough room for 4. It was a studio with only one bed.

This is a little spot with a great location!!!! The space was nice and overall clean with the exception of some dirty dishes and random hair accessories on the floor. We swept the floor and did some dishes then all was great! We had some issues with the internet and found the best way to contact the host was via text message as a phone call and message through the app went unanswered. However, she was very responsive with a text to her number. I found the bed to be very comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped! The shower was lovely and had a wonderful pressure!!!
