6.0

Clean, spacious room and nice staff. Convenient parking. Amenities were so-so. Hand soap far from sink and faucets barely went into sink so there was always water and soap on counter. Breakfast was bland. Close tohighway so easy for a one night stop.

"Will definitely stay here again when we return to Des Moines."

10.0

I’m very picky when it comes to cleanliness and our room was perfect. I felt completely comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and the hotel staff were kind and attentive.

I wish it was a little closer to attractions, but that is something I knew when booking. The beds were are little more firm than I like, but that preference.

"Short and sweet."

7.0

Breakfast was very good. The hotel was very nice. The other guests were problematic. There were several baseball teams who over ruled the pool.The children were disruptive and did a lot of running.

The fellow guests. No one stopped the baseball players from running in the room above us or in the hallways. They took over the pool and sloshed the water throughout the lobby.

"Good hotel, no issues at all, thank you!"

10.0

Very nice hotel, clean room, good breakfast, and the best part was the coffee machine, which made GREAT coffee. Housekeeping staff and front desk staff were all very nice. No issues with the hotel whatsoever, plenty of convenient parking, easy location for getting in and out. Thanks for making my overnight stay in the Des Moines area very pleasant.
