Lovely 3BR Close to Downtown

Great 3BR, 2 bath house in quiet residential area has everything you need for a home away from home. Close to downtown, grocery stores, restaurants, coffee shops, a great brewery, parks and public transportation.

2 Bedrooms are situated upstairs and a 3rd is on the main floor. All have large closets, fans and beautiful lighting. The living room, dining room and kitchen have a great flow with a semi-open floor plan. The deck overlooks a backyard with a privacy fence. The keypad entry ensures a safe and easy check in and check out. Other highlights include comfy couches, a Smart TV, an awesome dining room table to seat 5 (or 7 with a leaf), and a bar with 2 stools. The well-stocked kitchen has a great gas stove and lots of storage. The house has varied lighting options, from bright and cheerful to more intimate. On-site parking for up to 3 cars (in a single-car garage and alongside the house in the driveway). Additional street parking is available.

Nice place and neighborhood to walk in. Coffee shop close. Owner reached out with personal message before check in; nice touch. Clean and had everything we needed. Bed comfortable downstairs (we didn’t use the upstairs, but it was nice as well). Back porch was nice to have since weather was perfect. Thanks for sharing your home and addressing any concerns.😊

This place was great! Fantastic location in a quiet neighborhood. Close to the downtown and the hospital/college but far enough away to not have all of the noise. We absolutely loved the house, it was so cute. Communication with the property owner was fantastic. We will likely book this location for our next visit.

Great property
We were in town for my son's wedding and needed a place to land for four days. This property offered up everything we needed to be comfortable during our stay. The location is very nice and we felt safe the entire stay. The neighborhood is quiet and close to everything you need. If you don't mind walking, you could certainly reach everything by foot. We hosted a small brunch at the property for family members the morning after the wedding and received many compliments on the overall appearance and functionality of the property. Many were able to sit outside, while others were in the kitchen and dining room. My favorite areas of the house were the great kitchen and the awesome upstairs shower. Thanks for a great experience in Iowa City. We would definitely use this property again.

Cute small house, well located
Much cuter and nicer than the photos looked! Great space. Small bedrooms, but nice communal spaces. Would prefer standard height dining table & dining chairs, the tall ones are very uncomfortable. Had an initial issue getting checked in, but was solved fairly quickly. Nice host.
