Family gathering

Lots of beds but not enough chairs. We could not eat together and had to borrow folding chairs for meals and to play board games. Kitchen is also very small and not well equipped.Toilet was running when we arrived and not flushing. We reported it but because we got it to flush no one was sent to repair it. This happened again the second day of our stay and again no one came, even though the host said they were coming. Apparently they can't do weekend repairs. With only one bathroom, having to fix the toilet after each use was a worry the whole trip.

Family Stay in Des Moines

House was as advertised and worked well for our family. One thing to note is that one bedroom, while nice, is at the back of an unfinished basement and our kids were uncomfortable sleeping down there. Luckily there were enough beds on the main level.
