Kasa | Family 2BD, Iowa Events Center | Des Moines

JudyRating, 5 stars6 months ago
Although a very short stay with just one night, we really enjoyed our stay at Kasa. The location was perfect and check in/check out process was so easy. Enjoyed watching the traffic zoom by and the church across the street was a great view. Would definitely recommend staying at this location if you don't mind traffic and keep in mind the noise level was kept down by very good noise cancelling windows.
A modern living space is highlighted by a brown leather sofa adorned with blue cushions. Two wooden tables sit on a light rug, complemented by a black accent chair. Natural light enters through two windows, enhancing the simple, clean design.

Loved this place! Very clean, bed was super comfortable, it was the perfect place to stay after having been on the road for 11 hours! We were just using the place for the evening so can't comment on the surroundings and location per se but this place was a fabulous for a little R&R from long days on the road. Would definitely stay here again!

Lisa’s place is beautiful! It was well cleaned and matched the description and photos 100%. Our family has been renting Airbnb for a little while now and my wife and I were just saying on the way home that this was probably the best one we have stayed yet to date. We have family in the area, so I am sure we will be looking to stay again!

Joshua's Northland Bungalow

Dale JRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Two of us in town for a memorial service and gathering of friends. The place was great-perfect size-two bedrooms worked for us perfectly-cute place. Minor point is a bathroom typical of these little homes, with a toilet literally right next to the tub/shower with only an inch or two to spare on the sides-made for some interesting "negotiating!" But as I said, this is minor. Shower great! Located in a great neighborhood, peaceful, safe to walk, close to a mall and restaurants etc. Be aware there is a basement tenant- took us by surprise but that was because we didn't read the description fully! They were super quiet and we barely knew anyone else was there. Their apartment is separate from the unit. Definitely recommend the place and Josh was quick to respond to any questions we had. Great front porch for sitting and watching the world, lots of windows, good linens and towels, extra blankets, easy on street parking., Keurig, so very quiet-we would rent again in a heartbeat....

The Hills Hideaway | Private Entry | Near Downtown

TimRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Nicole’s place was better than the pictures indicated. Very cute decor, exceptionally comfortable, and the easiest unloading we’ve ever experienced in an Airbnb! Couch and bed were also VERY comfortable! The location was very convenient for all that we wanted to do during our weekend. Highly recommend this spot, and we will definitely go back. So glad we found it (and we bet you will be too)

Cozy cottage in the woods

PaulRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This is the ideal spot for a weekend escape. It was exactly what my wife and I needed to unwind and recharge from our hectic lives. The location is incredibly private, peaceful, and nestled within serene, secluded woodlands. Kathleen was excellent at communicating and tailored our stay to make it truly memorable. This place represents the standard that other Airbnbs aim for. The space was immaculate and had everything we needed—and more. We will be back.
