Clayton is a very responsive host. Every question I had was answered within minutes. The property looked exactly like the pictures, but the description wasn’t clear about the floor plan. The small kitchen area is not attached to the main living and sleeping area. I was a bit disappointed in the amenities such as no coffee maker, just a bar of soap in the shower, and no real “extras.” This was a good place for a weekend but probably not a long-term stay. The location was great and very private with easy access to shopping, restaurants, and the DM Rec Plex.

The location was absolutely perfect being on the very edge of Des Moines. It was quiet, no city distractions and very private. The space was very clean and Clayton was very friendly and personable. We definitely would stay again!

Disliked: Cleanliness

Host canceled day of. Very unprofessional.

Showed up to the property about five thirty in the evening to the owner standing out front. He told me there was construction going on inside, the house wasn't ready and he had to cancel. He said he should have blocked out those dates. He apologized, but that didn't fix the predicament he put me in. Seemed like a nice place, but I wouldn't recommend anyone put their faith in this host. 0/10.Would NOT book again or recommend.I feel like VRBO should ban this host. Maybe I caught him at a bad time, but whocan say another renter wouldn't run into the same issue.And, to make matters worse, he listed the cancelation as a "rule violation", which tarnishes my rating on here. Not sure if that was a mistake or spite, but either way this cancelation was 0% my fault, 100% the unprofessional owner/host.Beware.
