The prioperty was exactly as described. Very spacious, clean and a great value for the price. The location was excellent as we needed to be in downtown Des Moines. The only negative at all was the sketchy feel to the neighborhood. The Bodega next to the property entrance always had a number of people milling around day and night, and there was a Police presence there several times which made us wonder. We had no problems personally.

Great stay

Worked out great for 6 of us. Be sure to rent room with the theater. Need the shower. Great overall space.

I think this property is ideal for party-goers but not for families. Having 1 tiny shower in only one of the 2 units is not comfortable or feasible for a family of 7 and an infant. A lot of the furniture was broken, the carpets in both units were filthy, and the check in process was confusing with having to get a fob to get into the building and then using a different code to get into the units. Our codes never worked but the property manager was extremely friendly, helpful and responsive. The neighborhood did not seem safe and there were multiple homeless people loitering right outside the entry doors. There were blinds on all the windows and the curtains didn’t fully cover them in the smaller unit which meant my infant could not fall asleep until much later, and there was not enough extra bedding or towels. The movie theater was fun for the kids and we appreciated the responsiveness of the property manager but we won’t be coming back or recommending.
