Townhouse complex is in a transitioning neighborhood, with some construction nearby and a mix of older and newer houses, mobile home park, commercial property. Quiet location. Close to I-90, coffee shops, restaurants, a dog park, and the Corn Palace. Spacious, open areas including kitchen, dining and living space. Good place to congregate. Bedrooms upstairs made it easy for everyone to have their own space and we really liked the 2.5 baths. Large 2car garage and ample parking in front of the townhouse. Pleased we could have our dogs stay with us. Like any townhouse, back yard area is small and patios weren't very private. Fortunately there is a construction lot next door for walking the dogs, and a dumpster at the back of the lot made disposing their waste convenient.
We wish the townhouse had been cleaner. There were wipe marks on the surfaces and mirrors which made it feel dirty or at best, carelessly cleaned. We bought our own cleaning materials as there really weren't any in the townhouse. Pillows did not have any bedbug or protective coverings and did not smell the best. The beds were OK. The bed we were sleeping in had broken slats. It was very hot the day we arrived (95°+), and it was difficult to keep the bedrooms cool. Found that the vents were closed and beds placed over them, so we rearranged the beds to allow airflow. We think the door code stays the same for each guest, so that had us worried about security. We followed the checkout policy: strip the beds and leave in hallway (found out the mattresses were heavily stained), load and start dishwasher, garbage in dumpster, clean up after pets (we wanted to vacuum, but couldn't find one). We were in town for a wedding, and there wasn't an iron or ironing board, so we asked one of our family members to bring those with them as they were arriving a day later. Fam member brought clean towels for us too.
Overall, the unit we stayed in was pretty great and we were excited when we first arrived. We wish it had been cleaner and felt more secure. Ultimately, we checked out early.
