This a very affordable and convenient location to the downtown Des Moines area. This may be one of only a few downtown hotels that has free parking--very easy to get in and out. All the staff were wonderful. I also really appreciated my cooler that I had left in the fridge was found and waiting for me--thank you so much

We love the property it was walking distance to the event center. We didn't know they were doing construction/remodeling until we got there. It was fine just unexpected.
