Drury Inn & Suites West Des Moines

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel. Rooms very clean and comfy. Only problem was one (out of 2) elevators was not functional. Needs to be fixed asap as the wait for the one elevator was LONG and very crowded once in! Stayed 5/29/26-5/31/26."

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Des Moines West, IA

10/10 Excellent

"I really enjoyed everything about my stay. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean and spacious, with comfortable beds and pillows. The bathroom, tub and shower were all clean and included a fresh smelling body wash. The pool area was huge and clean with plenty of towels and seating. I appreciated that it stayed open until midnight daily, with the last hour being 'adults only' which allowed me to thoroughly enjoy the large working hot tub in peace every night of my stay. The free breakfast was basic, but good and appreciated. The coffee was great and there was plenty of my favorite flavored creamer to accompany it. I will definitely stay here again and recommend to others."

Holiday Inn Downtown - Mercy Area by IHG

2/10 Terrible

"The air conditioner was barely trickling out anything cold. When we woke up in the morning it was almost 80° in our room. The TV did not work at all. It's been a known issue for a while and they didn't bother to mention any of it on check-in. No discount was offered because we looked through hotels.com. I would never stay there again"
