Des Moines Trip

The property was very nice and clean... check-in was a bit confusing because there was another apartment with the same number right next door. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and it was probably one of the cleanest/nicest VRBOs I've ever stayed in.

Best Experience Ever

We arrived at the property after a long day and it was retreat. The communication was excellent. The view of the city is amazing. My family wants to come back to Des Moines just to stay at the property again.

Sister’s weekend

Very clean and modern. Decor and attention to detail was appreciated. Parking was a bit of a challenge. Although a two car garage was described in the listing and available it’s really meant for compact cars.
