We had a lovely stay with my family, it was great to have a separate space upstairs for the noisy toddler but a large downstairs space for socialising. The house was well stocked & clean, beds were super comfy! We really enjoyed hanging out on the porch swing in the warm afternoons. Easy to find and great walkable location for NewBo and Czech Village, so many lovely cafes and bookstores nearby.

It was nice to have designated parking spots for easy loading and unloading. Everything was easy for a check in. Cute neighborhood close by. House very clean.

Loved our stay! We had two families that wanted to stay together, but also have our own space. This place worked out perfectly. Each family took one floor of the house. It was easy to communicate with the owner, the house was clean and decorated very cozy. There was lots to do in Cedar Rapids, specifically close to the house. Great restaurants (LP street food!) convenient parking. Clear directions on how to check in, house rules and how to check out. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Location is excellent. Communication was great. Bottom living room needs more seating. Sleeper sofa was broken and not comfortable to sit on. They did attempt to fix it but it was not repairable. Pets were allowed but not allowed on any furniture which we weren't notified of until we checked in. Kitchen could use more utensils and storage for leftovers. Door in front bedroom unlocked from the inside by turning handle so not great if small children in the room.
