Nice hotel!
Staff was great! My room 314 was nice with a balcony facing the river. However i woke up with a spider crawling above me on the ceiling.

Great!
Great clean stay! Rooms were great, pool and hot tub were great, wish it stayed open a little longer but oh well!
Ashley, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We enjoyed our visit! This is our second time staying. The first was a couple, the second was as a family. We liked our room with a balcony and the view of the river. Great location & breakfast. Only point of concern would be that half of the jets in the hot tub didn't work.

One of our favorite Des Moines stays. We’ve done plenty of hotels in the area, and this one was the best. Great river view, comfortable bed, clean shower and decent sized restroom. Having a fridge and microwave a plus, and the swingable TV.

Sean N, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

As you scale the hotel food chain, you generally lose amenities as the price and star rating goes up. This is the best of both worlds. An affordable nightly rate in a hotel that feels luxurious, plus all the amenities you could want. Pool, hot tub, and a complementary breakfast. Not much more to ask for.
Lane, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location. Plenty of restaurants and bars. DesMoines downtown is very clean.
Louis, 3-night trip

Convenient location; close to restaurants, and events. Room was clean, quiet, comfortable, spacious, and well-equipped. No additional charge for internet and breakfast. Breakfast was good. Staff was friendly and helpful. Parking garage connected to hotel.

Donna, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice hotel, but....
All in all, the hotel is great. In our room, 602, the bedside table lamp needs replaced as the bulbs flicker and one shade was broken. We did report that as we recd a text asking how things were so far. Realized our toilet was stopped up in middle of the night, but didnt have a chance to tell anyone until check out. The shower water wasnt very warm and what was warm, didnt last very long.
