The location is great. We walked right out to the farmer’s market on Saturday. Ken was very responsive throughout answering questions and refilling paper towels. I would definitely stay here again. My only recommendation would be to use better toilet paper.

Thank you for your review, Lily! We’re so glad you enjoyed the location and were able to walk right out to the farmers market. We also appreciate your kind words about our responsiveness. Thank you for mentioning the toilet paper. We normally provide Member’s Mark Ultra Premium 2-Ply in all of our units, so it’s possible a roll left behind by a previous guest was mistakenly used during your stay. We’ll be sure to double-check our supplies moving forward. Thank you for staying with us. We’d love to host you again on your next visit! Ken

One night stay

In town for a family wedding. Apartment was located only blocks from reception venue. We arrived in town a little earlier than planned and Ken was kind enough to let us in the apartment an hour early to store our bags while we attended the wedding. Place was clean, quiet and welcoming. Would not hesitate to stay there again.

Immaculately clean. Beds were very comfortable. Excellent location. Safe area. The only thing I would caution is to be careful of the stairs. They are steep and narrow. This property is not suitable for people with mobility issues. Overall, it was an excellent stay. Ken thought of everything. I also liked how cupboards were labeled.

Great stay!

Ken's place was great for the wedding we attended! The location worked well for us to be able to walk to the reception, as well as check out a couple of other local establishments. The apartment was bigger than anticipated and well appointed. The air conditioners in the bedrooms as well as the option of individual fans was a big plus! Ken immediately got back in touch with me when there was a mix up with the parking and was able to offer a solution. We definitely would recommend staying here and will definitely keep it on our radar if we return to Dubuque!

About the host

Hosted by Ken

Host profile image
Hello, my name is Ken. I was born in China and moved to the United States in 1997 with very little English but a strong desire to build a better life. I first worked in restaurants in Chicago before moving to Dubuque in 2000, where I worked at Hy-Vee as a cook and later became the Chinese department manager.
In 2003 I began investing in real estate, and in 2008 I left my job to focus on real estate full time. In 2018 I followed my passion for cooking and opened Oolong Asian Cuisine here in Dubuque.
Over the years I have had the pleasure of hosting thousands of guests from around the world and have received over 4,000 guest reviews across my properties. My goal is simple: provide clean, comfortable homes and make every stay easy and enjoyable.

Why they chose this property

chose this neighborhood because it is one of the most vibrant and historic areas of Dubuque. Many of my properties are located near the downtown Millwork District, which has become a lively destination with great restaurants, breweries, coffee shops, and local businesses.
Guests enjoy being close to the Mississippi River, the riverwalk, museums, and many of Dubuque’s historic landmarks. The area also has beautiful historic architecture and a welcoming small-city atmosphere.
Whether guests are visiting for work, a weekend getaway, or exploring the region, this location makes it easy to enjoy everything Dubuque has to offer.

What makes this property unique

Our properties are designed to provide a comfortable and reliable stay. Many of the homes are located in historic buildings, but they are carefully updated with modern amenities, fast Wi-Fi, smart TVs, and fully equipped kitchens.
We focus on cleanliness, comfort, and thoughtful details such as quality linens, well-maintained furniture, and convenient self check-in.
With thousands of positive reviews from guests over the years, our goal is simple: provide a clean, safe, and enjoyable place where visitors can relax while experiencing the charm of Dubuque.
