Property Ratings at 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.
Property Manager at Rowat Lofts, Responded To This Review
We're sorry to hear about your experience. Your concerns are important to us, and we take them seriously. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by noise and trash issues. Please reach out to our office directly so we can address your concerns promptly. We want to make sure to address your issues - thank you!
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. - Marian Aleman
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.

Dear James, Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the inconveniences you have experienced. We take your concerns seriously and will be following up privately to address them. We appreciate your residency and are committed to improving your living experience. Best regards, Rowat Lofts Management Team
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.
Modern space and amenities, but it is a little pricey for small spaces. It does have free street and back in angle parking for visitors around the building, although it does get taken up quickly after work hours. Quite space other than the train, which is expected but not bothersome. Lets lots of light in and even though they have small studios there is a lot you can do with the space.
Very new and modern looking and feeling. Lots of natural sunlight to keep the mood up in the winter. Great courtyard the makes the place feel spacious. Rent is on the high end but it's kind of worth it.
Way to expensive for the what they are offering. Dirty courtyard. Filled with dog poop. Very small apartments.
My wife and I lived in a studio and loved the community. The courtyard is amazing (we have a dog) and you don't find green space like this anywhere close to downtown. The amenities are great - fitness room, sky lounge, pet wash and more. Management has done multiple events such as courtyard concert, courtyard yoga, and grill out with food, drinks, bags, etc. In regards to the reviews about thin walls, we had neighbors on all sides and were in a studio and RARELY heard neighbors/noises. We had parking right next to the building and paid half what our previous landlord charged for ramp parking, plus street parking is free and ample, so friends always had a place to park nearby. Management was always quick to respond and address work orders. We were able to get a move-in special making the rent super reasonable for a brand new building. Overall, we will and have recommended Rowat to many friends and if you are looking for a place to live, definitely go tour and decide for yourself. You won't be disappointed!
We really love this apartment. They are a brand new complex so they have good quality appliances and up to date amenities. The location is perfect. Kristen, the apartment manager, is really nice and friendly as well.
