Top Indianola Hotel Reviews

Stoney Creek Hotel Des Moines - Johnston

Stoney Creek Hotel Des Moines - Johnston

8/10 Good
"Not a great breakfast spread, but a really good pool/hot tub area. Very fun. Themed rooms and quiet place. We had the massage chair, but it feels like it’s trying to split you in half when the shoulders compress. Very painful for my fiance. Can be a little hard to find your way around the property, but the staff is very helpful."
