Rowat Lofts

Property managers are terrible. Will ignore you if you have a complaint about loud neighbors banging on the wall that are knocking stuff over in your apartment. They also let the trash room overfill with garbage and will blame the residents for “overfilling” because they’re too lazy to do anything about it.

Great location, decent pricing. Old property manager is as so personable and communicative with people beyond a email or flyer. Just changed management, so hope it holds up.

I moved to Des Moines about 3 months ago from Nashville, TN and at first the building wasn't what I expected. The whole building was dirty, the carpet was stained all over the place, elevator was always dirty.
Not long ago Indigo Management took over here at the lofts and I'd say that has been the best decision they could of made. Ashley has been a great property manager, she's answered all my questions and catered to all my concerns and needs.
Maintenance people did an awesome and fast job... resolving my issues here at my apartment. Carpet is not stained anymore, there's not a lot of packages on the floor by the entrance, there's a clear path for me to grab my mail. Everything is starting to look better and cleaner. Overall I'm glad there's a new team making sure our place of living is comfortable and convenient.

This place stinks horribly in the hallways of dog pee. The trash chute is always full by Mondays and have seen multiple cockroaches near the hallways of the trash chute room and in the room. Dogs barking at all hours of the day. Front door handicap access broke. Elevator broke. DONT BE SHOCKED; my rent has also gone up over a hundreds dollars just like everyone else. Don’t live here.

Emily was very helpful in the leasing office. Nice amenities and close to downtown in a newer apartment. Amazing place. So glad I decided to move here.
