Great experience
The hotel stay was amazing and we really enjoyed the jacuzzi in our room. The only downfall is that the breakfast options are the basic options at most hotels but it was still good. I would definitely stay here again.

Just what we needed
Stayed for the Iowa State Fair with the family. The employees were always working hard and available if needed. We found the room clean, comfortable, and very accommodating for our needs. It was also a convenient location for all the things we did while in town.

Family Getaway- Successful/relaxing
Rooms were clean, breakfast was always fresh and they kept the hot tray full. They had many varieties of food selections. Pool was spacious and perfect depth for kids. Hot tub was even better and kept at a perfect temperature. There was always someone at the desk and was very helpful with all our needs. Wifi is available and smart tv was available in our room for streaming access. We stayed 2 nights and they were the most comfortable and peaceful nights staying away from home. Very close to multiple attractions and shopping centers. We will definitely be returning in the future for our family trips!

We booked what I thought was a king suite with a sofa bed for our mini vacation to Adventureland. We arrived in Des Moines an hour early and they let us check in early. However, the room was just a king bed, no sofa bed. The gentleman at the desk quickly helped us out and got us switched to a room with two queen beds. The room was clean, quiet and the AC worked great. Bed was comfy. Good value for the money. All the staff members I interacted with were accommodating and polite. The location is also great. Close to lots of restaurants and stores, and a 10 min countryside drive to Adventureland.
