  • Great Apartment

    February 27, 2025
    The location is unbeatable—right in the heart of downtown Des Moines, with shopping, dining, and entertainment just steps away with access to the skyway. The management team was always friendly and quick to respond whenever I needed anything, which made the whole experience even better. For anyone looking for a blend of luxury, convenience, and urban living, Maxwell Apartments is hands-down a fantastic choice.

  • AMAZING place to live!

    February 13, 2025
    Love living in an amazing apartment building so close to restaurants and other fun things downtown. I love being able to use the skyway to go to the gym in the morning. The YMCA has so many amenities.
