Comfy Cozy
Our stay was great, other than a clogged bathtub drain and a drain stopper that wouldn’t lift in the extra sink. Staff were friendly and helpful, food was great! The beds were comfy and the room was clean.

This hotel exceeded our expectations! We pulled up and couldn’t believe how nice it was - way better than the pictures. The rooms were huge and clean and the bed was comfy! Room came complimentary with two free drinks a piece and free snacks in the evening. The lobby and bar / breakfast area was beautiful. Definitely will stay there again if we go back to Des Moines

Good area and accommodations were okay. Small beds. Called the front desk three times and housekeeping once and no one answered. I went down to the desk and three attendants were there just chatting.

Acceptable
Parking is NOT FREE (my fault for not noticing). Furniture needs a good update. Tub had a rust. The TV was cutting out and the pool was COLD. Breakfast was decent. The free drink from the bar was so watered down we didn’t bother the second night. Location was good. Probably won’t choose to stay there again.

Futon dirty when I pulled it out to make up my bed. Wedding reception going on 2 floors below us till late at night so noise carried thru to our room. Loved the location (close to shops and restaurants and easy to get to car show at the fairgrounds) carpet in our room was frayed and needs replaced

The extra couch pull out was very uncomfortable and had no sheets to put on it. The room was freezing and we had no way to change the temp on the thermostat. The couch cushions were torn and had holes in it.

The room was in disrepair. Mold on the ceilings, paint peeling and cobwebs in multiple places. The milk was spoiled on the breakfast buffet, the food was flavorless and the guy at the omelette station was rude. The bartender on Friday night swelled like he hadn’t showered in a week, there were no snacks left at 6:30 for the cocktail hour - just an overall bad experience!
