Great place, great location (tucked away but easy walk to downtown!), and price was high only because it was family weekend. :) Would definitely stay here again!

many aspects were really excellent. I would suggest bringing a small fan in bedroom or owner adding that feature.

Great Place to Stay!

This was the perfect place to stay for a couple! Nice, quiet and very easy to find. The location is great. Rick made the check in process easy and everything that was listed on this was true. Will definitely be staying again!

Clean, comfortable, and convenient

We had a truly excellent stay at Rick’s place in Iowa City. It was spotless, very comfortable, and walkable to downtown and football. We’ll look to stay here again on our next trip to IC!

A very cosy room and fairly close to town and campus, though 10 minutes is an exaggeration except for a few outlier businesses (I'd say 15-20). The place had everything I needed. The only downside is the thin walls cause you to hear even the smallest of noises from neighbors, especially plumbing, so if you're a light sleeper, I recommend bringing ear plugs.

Perfect for what we needed it for. Quick parents weekend to Iowa with everything you need! Kitchen, bathroom and a wonderful big size king bed. Super clean and very updated. Communication with owner was great. No problems checking in or out. Would recommend staying there, and as a matter of fact we are staying again in November. Looking forward to it.

This vrbo gives you no access to the thermostat at all. It's a basement dwelling and 2 days after I arrived we had a blizzard with - 10 degrees and it was very cold inside. I contacted the owner about increasing the temperature and 3 weeks later they got back to me. I would not recommend this vrbo.

Great place but thin walls/noisy vents

This place is as advertised. Small, cozy and clean. The king bed was very comfortable. Rick was great. 10-15 minute walk from downtown Iowa City. The big problem is that noise travels from the upstairs through the walls and vents. And with extremely amorous neighbors who were up late and then surprisingly were at it again at 7am both mornings, unfortunately didn't make for a restful weekend for us.

This is a comfortable, clean, and convenient location with everything I needed. It would be perfect for 1-2 people to visit family, come to a Hawkeye game, or attend a conference at the University. It's not immediately downtown or on campus, but it's a short walk, bus ride, or drive. Having a kitchen was great and the bed is very comfortable!
