8 / 10Excellent·Jan 2026
We liked the location of the VRBO. It was walking distance to a lot of bars and restaurants. The hosts were great at communicating and responded quickly if we had a question. The place did have a bit of a cleaning solution smell the whole time we were there, like pine sol. Plus the beds, couch, chairs were not very comfotable. We were excited to come home to our own beds.
10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2025
The apartment was very clean and a great East Village location. Check in and out was very easy as the host sent very clear instructions prior to our arrival. Will definitely book again when we visit Des Moines.

Good location in East Village. Check in process was made difficult because the apartment numbers did not match listing as they had been changed. Looked for correct number for about 30 minutes before calling.
