Nov 30, 2025 Liked: Check-in, location The place was quiet and generally clean, with a nice view of the Mississippi. However the shower floor was visibly dirty. The lack of curtains or blinds over the bedroom window, where a bright streetlight shone directly in, was not conducive to sleeping. Communication from the host was a bit spotty. This property was satisfactory but below what I usually experience through VRBO. ##### Susan L.
