Great apartment stay

The communications were 5 star. So clean, modern and comfortable. The river view you step out to is gorgeous. Best stay in Ft. Madison we've had yet. Hopefully we will stay again on future visits.

Best Prison Stay Ever!

This apartment was perfect for us. The location was great, within walking distance to the downtown area and the Ft Madison riverfront park area. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and had a creative prison theme that gave it a unique charm. It met all our needs and even had thoughtful extras like a sleeping mask, which was a nice touch. Having a personal parking spot made things super convenient. Highly recommend for a cozy and hassle-free stay.

A tall person's shower

Nice little apartment. Clean. Bed was comfortable. I'm 6'2" and I didn't have to bend over to wash my hair. Most showers are made for people 5 ft tall. This one was a pleasant surprise.
