Did not have breakfast. I stayed in Des Moines for the Paul McCartney concert. I was hoping your bar would be open after the concert as many people wanted to continue the party. Lots of people standing in the lobby talking about concert and if the bar or a coffee bar would have been available that would have been perfect. Our room was awesome and your staff is very friendly.
