The staff were great, all the way from the concierge, breakfast crew to the cleaning group. They were friendly, helpful, and diverse. The property has old facilities, which is understable given the hotel's age. The location was great as it was in Downtown Des Moines and had many great walkable options. The parking filled up quickly but there was a parking facility by the city in front of the hotel that was fairly accessible and reasonably priced (max of $10 a day).

The hotel reception area was very nice. When we got to our room initially looked well done. We had 2 water glasses for 4 people, 1 of which had many fingerprints and we chose not to use glass. 2 late to get replacements. The curtains did not close properly so lots of light in the morning. Construction right under our windows. I need darkness to sleep. On the other hand breakfast was great..

Roof was leaking in main area. Microwave had garbage in it that was not cleaned out. The toilet was leaked every time it was flushed. It was over priced and would not have stayed there if I didn’t have to for a scheduled event on the premise.

First time staying here. Overall a great place to stay although the sofa bed mattress was very thin and ended up just sleeping on the sofa itself without making it into a bed. Convenient to restaurants and parking available across the street.
