10/10 Excellent

"Perfect for our visit to see family. Close to everything. Parks within walking distance as is grocery store and coffee shop."

Ankeny Heights - A 4 bedroom and 2 bath home

8/10 Good

"The check-in was super easy and the listing was pretty much as described. There's a Hy-Vee grocery store within a half mile, which was super convenient. There is some local road construction which slowed things down a bit, but that project looks to be wrapping up soon. The property is nestled in a nice residential area. The property on the outside could have used some TLC. Yes, the lawn was freshly mowed, but the weeds were in full summer mode and the two trash bins by the garage were already filled past the brim. It wasn't the best look when we initially pulled up to the property. Pros - Inside, the air conditioning was set at a nice temperature and the rooms were clean. There were plenty of towels available. Check-out instructions and wifi information was posted in a highly visible location within the kitchen. We enjoyed the open concept living room, dining room and kitchen area. There were six in our party, so we pulled a couple of the extra stools up to the dining table to play board games in the evening, which was nice. Cons - Overall, we were happy with our stay, but a few improvements would elevate this listing. The bedroom I personally stayed in had two pillows in decorative shams, but no actual sleeping pillows. There's a hole in the wall where the bathroom door knob has bumped into the drywall. Most, if not all bedroom and bathroom doors creaked with each opening and closing. Minor things to be sure."
