Stayed here in Dubuque while visiting my son at college. I traveled with my mother-in-law and it was a great fit for both of us. The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. Check-in was easy and the host communicated clearly. The location made it simple to get around town and to campus. Would absolutely stay here again on our next visit.

The host was great with communication and recommendations for area restaurants. The location of the house is perfect for walking to the museum, and down Main Street, even in the snow!! Check in was a breeze, checking out, we're just locked the door behind us. The home was very clean and comfortable, perfect for our ladies weekend. Of note, the stairs to the third floor are steep and narrow. We arrived from different corners of the state with four vehicles. We found parking in the lot on the corner for all our vehicles.

the house for fun and held several of us (6) . The table was big enough for us all to sit and be comfortable and it was near downtown so we walked to a lot of the tourist items we were visiting.

Charming home!

Had our family with us for a wedding and needed a place to stay overnight. This worked perfectly for that purpose. Having only one bathroom would’ve been a challenge if we were staying longer, but the home is very well kept and quaint.

Great Stay for Concert

This was the perfect spot to stay for going to a concert downtown. Everything was clean and well taken care of. All downtown shops and restaurants were easily walkable from the house. Would stay again next time we’re in the area!

The bar out back is way too loud. The music is pounding until it closes.

Not good. People from the bar partying all around the house.
