Cozy Bluff St Escape - Downtown

Modern comfort in Dubuque’s historic district. Set on a quiet downtown street, this freshly remodeled and beautifully furnished stay feels warm and welcoming. Perfect for couples or visiting family. Sleeps up to four, with a full kitchen for easy meals. Walk or take a short drive to cafes, the riverfront, and Loras College. Note: This historic building may have some upstairs noise (footsteps and daily activity), which is part of its charm. For comfort, we provide disposable earplugs and a fan.

THE SPACE
Bright, cozy living room designed for unwinding after a day in the city. The sofa converts to a king to sleep two comfortably. Separate bedroom with a comfy queen bed, quality linens, and blackout curtains. Clean bathroom stocked with fresh towels, makeup wipes, and essentials.

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
• Bedroom: 1 queen bed
• Living room: sofa that converts to a king
Sleeps up to 4 comfortably — great for couples, two friends, or parents visiting students at Loras College.

KITCHEN & DINING
Cook at home when you like. The full kitchen has cookware, utensils, dishes, and a coffee station with Keurig cups (coffee, tea, hot chocolate, latte options). A small dining nook is perfect for slow breakfasts or simple dinners. You’ll also find multiple bottles of chilled water in the fridge.

COMFORT & AIR QUALITY
A quiet retreat with an air purifier running to keep things fresh and a dehumidifier for optimal comfort.

The unit was very clean and as advertised. The host was very communicative and prompt to answer questions. It suited our purpose, as we just slept there, however we weren’t crazy about the location.
