About this property

Cozy #2 for YOU! 1-bed apartment in fantastic Sherman Hill Downtown Des Moines

Sherman Hill blends Victorian-era charm with modern Des Moines energy. Historic mansions line leafy streets, while Hoyt Sherman Place hosts art shows and concerts. Locals grab coffee, browse boutiques, and enjoy nearby eateries before heading to downtown events. It’s a very walkable neighborhood where 19th‑century architecture meets today’s urban lifestyle. Very walkable and centrally located!

Great location for doing downtown things. had everything we needed. Being in a historic district made it nice for walking the neighborhood. Older building so there is only window airconditioning.

This apartment is in a quiet neighborhood and would have served us well if the kitchen and utensils were clean. The bedding and towels and personal hygiene items were fine. The bedroom rug needs to be replaced.

This is a great place! Very cozy apartment that is well laid out and in both a quiet building and neighborhood. There is lots of easy access to shops and restaurants around and it was very easy to access from the street parking. The space is very clean and well furnished with everything needed for cooking in. The host was very communicative and responded quickly to our messages, answered our questions and provided the info we needed to access the space. It was a quick stop for us on a long road-trip, but we would most definitely stay here again when in the area. Many thanks for a Great Stay!!

Everything was neat and tidy. The reason for only Good review was because it's an older building (no fault to the host). My husband is over 200 lbs so the mattress was a little loud. Other than that, our stay was great and we'd definitely stay again for the location and price. Eric was very attentive and we appreciate being able to stay.
