Check in is very easy and host is very accomodating. I will have to say that the supplies are very minimal. I always have to bring my own tea towels and dish cloths. The bed is super comfortable and the people who live in the building are very friendly. There are plenty of big windows for those who love lots of light but a black out blind in the bedroom.

They still owe me a 150 refund for an incorrect charge. Not sure if or how I will get that back. They said they can't reverse it. My car got towed, even though I had a parking permit (they didn't see it under the frost on window). The TV didn't work, the bathtub was missing the plug, kitchen was lacking (at least get some salt), only two shower towels provided, light bulb in bedroom didn't work, tons of random hair and dirt from previous visitors, ran out of toilet paper, even asked for more with no response. Don't expect help on the weekend. Parking lot is not directly behind the building. Every door and elevator needs a key, and you only get one, so consider that if traveling as a pair or family. The area is loud: you will be directly next to a the train tracks, fire department, a huge construction site, homeless shelter with lots of random yelling and screaming, your neighbor practices his saxophone - all right outside your window.

The directions are fail proof. We ordered in most dinners but there is a coffee pot with filters. So much better than a Keurig.

Wonderful night in DSM
This location was so close to some great areas downtown in DSM, couple blocks from the sculpture park and a couple minutes from the Hoyt Sherman Place where we enjoyed a show! The building was so nice and quiet, with a beautiful patio out back to relax or swim as well! The unit itself was so clean and cozy, with a lot of space and a very comfortable bed with a great view :) I’d love to come back again and highly recommend this place! Also, when we needed to communicate with the property managers, they’d reply promptly which is very much appreciated!

Perfect place to stay
The condo was very clean and nicely decorated. We loved all the big windows and modern decor. The bedding was so soft! The kitchen had everything you would need. Great restaurants within walking distance. We loved Vibe down the street. We needed more towels and the host delivered them to us and was very responsive. We very much enjoyed our stay!
