Great place but thin walls/noisy vents
This place is as advertised. Small, cozy and clean. The king bed was very comfortable. Rick was great. 10-15 minute walk from downtown Iowa City. The big problem is that noise travels from the upstairs through the walls and vents. And with extremely amorous neighbors who were up late and then surprisingly were at it again at 7am both mornings, unfortunately didn't make for a restful weekend for us.

Perfect for what we needed it for. Quick parents weekend to Iowa with everything you need! Kitchen, bathroom and a wonderful big size king bed. Super clean and very updated. Communication with owner was great. No problems checking in or out. Would recommend staying there, and as a matter of fact we are staying again in November. Looking forward to it.
