Work Trip Stay
The house matched the description provided and met our expectations. The fenced in backyard was great for our dog. Amenities met our needs for the three days we were there. The neighborhood was great, everyone was friendly. Would recommend to anyone who needs a place to crash and doesn't want to stay at a hotel!

Conscientious Hosts/Clean Property
VRBO 6212 Boston Ave We booked this property after checking several pet friendly properties in Des Moines. We have a cat, and pet friendly does not always mean cat friendly. We always check if a cat is allowed. The hosts for 6212 Boston Avenue were very responsive to our inquiries which is always a good sign for us. There are two hosts that manage the property, and we found both to be very professional, helpful, funny, and responsive. The home is as advertised, clean and uncluttered. There is plenty of storage in the kitchen along with a pantry. It is well stocked with dishes, cutlery, pans, etc. The knives were dull and hard to use. Dishwasher works great. Plenty of cleaning supplies under the sink. The mirrored medicine cabinet is nice for storage. There are lots of closets with hangers. The linen closet is well stocked with towels, toilet paper, and games. Beware the hole in the floor for the Wifi router cables if you have a curious kitty. Luckily the door latches securely. Some suggestions: Sharpen the knives Secure bathroom rug; it slides around Add a dry mop for the vinyl plank floors (There is a broom in the pantry.)

Snowy Des Moines
Only reason for the 3 star for location was due to the massive amount of snow on the roads getting to the house which made it difficult to get a larger vehicle in the driveway (which the host cannot control). The home was warm, secure, very comfortable, and I felt very safe staying there. The fenced yard was perfect for the dog. All in all, I would stay here the next time I am in the area.

The blue house
This is a lovely house in a good neighborhood. Communication between the initial manager was excellent, the second manager I had minimal contact with but was also responsive. Kudos to the the handyman Micah, he was also responsive to my requests and always let me know when he was doing work around the house. Location was great to get around Des Moines, close to Merle Hay… also easy access to I 80, 235 to west Des Moines etc Well appointed kitchen… dining rooms chairs were not too comfortable Bedrooms were comfortable Overall a nice place to stay

Great Place
My number one thing communication. Communication with manager was so easy and fast! Super clean and easy check in. Great fenced backyard and not over decorated which is important for a 2 year old to stay out of. Thanks for hosting! Super duper close to groceries, gas, and food.
