I wish they could have made the room at least once. We spent 3 nights and the room wasn't cleaned during the entire stay.

Only thing keeping this from being the perfect hotel was the extremely slow elevator (waited over five minutes one time before choosing to carry our luggage down four flights of stairs).

This seems like a very new property and it shows - super clean, fresh rooms and lobby. It even smelled clean and fresh. Beds were so comfy. Staff was very nice! The 2 queen room was sleek and clean and lots of room. My only issue is that it was a bit LOUD. Not sure if it's the hardwood floors, but we could hear the people above our room loudly walking around super early in the am. Woke us up!!

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel in Des Moines! The property is definitely brand new and spotless, which made for a really pleasant experience. The breakfast was quite good, offering a nice variety to start the day off right. The staff were incredibly helpful and made sure everything was perfect during my visit. I truly appreciated their hospitality and attention to detail. I will absolutely plan on returning here on my next visit to the area!
