For the price I paid to stay here- there is no reason I should have had a leaking shower and faucet in the bathroom. There was no toilet paper in the room and only 2 towels. Wouldn’t stay again especially for the price.

The staff at The Embassy Suites in Des Moines was simply amazing!! Eddie gave me a room upgrade because I had four teenage girls with me and was going to sleep on the couch. He moved us to a two room suite so I would have a bed too and it was so incredibly nice of him. Then my teenagers were still sleeping and were going to miss breakfast so the staff made up to go boxes for me to take up to the room! How very kind of them! I will definitely be staying again. Thank you to the Embassy staff - I’m very grateful for their kindness and generosity.
