A very clean, safe house, close to everything in Iowa City.

This is a clean and simple townhouse. The beds are comfortable.

PRO: Location, it was clean, off street parking and quiet area.CON: Minimal Furniture but matches pictures, Couch small and sits low to ground could only fit 5 adults but could sleep 8 in beds, one cabinets was broken notified host he didn’t respond, No Wash Cloths, pillows thin with 1 per sleeping spot (we only had 5 people so worked out), kitchen table was card table with folding medal chairs, Master Bedroom Smoke Detector removed and on floor of storage closet. Didn’t receive code so reached out hour before arrival with no quick response called VRBO and he did communicate saying glitch with VRBO but we stayed at 2 other properties during this trip without issue. My Opinion this was bought and furnished as a Rental with Minimal Cheap Furniture. Would not book this unit but will continue using VRBO.

Pros:• The property was clean and had ample room for a family, even if it was almost entirely without decorations like lamps, rugs, or anything on the walls. • There was enough bedding and bath towels. • The washer and dryer were nice to have since we were there for five nights. • There was ample parking in the back. • Walking distance to downtown is really nice. Cons: • It would have been nice to have a few more amenities in the kitchen if you are planning to eat there. There were only 7 forks and 8 large plates (just means having to do dishes after every meal for a group larger than four). Not a deal breaker, just not convenient. • Oddly, there were no wash cloths. Again, not a deal breaker, just a first for us and not ideal. • The couch was busted. Someone had clearly tried to fix it and then shim it up with what turned out to be three unopened packs of shims stacked under the broken part. Kind of hilarious, actually. • The lack of sound buffering: without any kind of floor or wall coverings in the downstairs, and only one busted couch, every noise sounded loud and echo-y. If you do bring your pet, or if you have noise-sensitive people traveling with you, you might want to keep that in mind. • Communication was nonexistent. I let the company contact know about the couch, and communicated a couple other things, and there was no reply. Maybe they didn’t reply because I wasn’t asking them to fix it, but I was surprised no one ever got back to me, at all.
