Clean property. Easy check in. Parking close to the apartment. We were in town for a wedding and only went to the church and reception but downtown was nice. Close to many restaurants, the Capital Building, botanical gardens, etc. Host communication was superb before and after stay. Would definitely recommend!
We had a wonderful stay. The place was convenient and had everything we needed. Really liked the layout and proximity to the parking lot etc. Comfortable beds, clean and modern. Fun decor, beautiful TV with all the good channels and great for entertaining ourselves in between meetings this weekend. LOVED the deck! The view of Des Moines was perfect! Thank you so much!
The apartment was very modern and beautifully decorated. We did have some issues with vheck in and getting the correct code but it was quickly resolved. Owner is very responsive and helpful. Would definitely stay here again as the beds were super cozy and the views were spectacular!
The apartment was very clean and a great East Village location. Check in and out was very easy as the host sent very clear instructions prior to our arrival. Will definitely book again when we visit Des Moines.
A very comfortable vibe! The space was beautiful, the communication was perfect, the beds were super comfy! The extra games were a great addition! We will definitely be back in the future! Thank you again!
Great communication on check-in process and the location amenities were top notch. Great property & a MUST STAY for the Des Moines East Village location.
We liked the location of the VRBO. It was walking distance to a lot of bars and restaurants. The hosts were great at communicating and responded quickly if we had a question. The place did have a bit of a cleaning solution smell the whole time we were there, like pine sol. Plus the beds, couch, chairs were not very comfotable. We were excited to come home to our own beds.
Nice spot to walk all around the area. Easy and ample parking. Quiet stay with a beautiful view. Bed was comfy. Watch the video for accessing the unit, it will save you time and confusion.
The Cartier is within walking distance to the farmers’ market, restaurants, fun shops, & nightlife in downtown Des Moines. It is very clean and well furnished inside. There are beautiful views from the outdoor deck.
The apartment is easy to check in and out and very clean. Quiet and cozy. Great location in downtown Des Moines. Easy walking distance to many key venues and to the beautiful State Capitol. Hosts are good with communication. Would stay here again.
