Clean, quiet, convenient.
We stayed for close to a week while visiting family. It was an easy location for us to be and perfect for a family of four. Looks like there will be even more room there once the basement is finished.

Perfect for College Visit
My son and I stayed here for an Admitted Students Day at U of Iowa. The accommodations were extremely comfortable and close to campus — also Hawkeye-themed! Stacey was very receptive with messages, even helping us find a place for takeout pizza. For our first time in Iowa, our stay was perfect, would definitely stay here again.

Stayed one night for girls state wrestling tournament! House was as described and very clean and cozy. Bakery treats were delicious, thanks! Only suggestion i would make is blinds or room darkening curtains for bedrooms. Would definitely stay again!
