    great access to parks and landmarks for city strolls

    During my stay, I appreciated how close we were to Blank Park Zoo, which made for a great afternoon of walking and sightseeing. The scenic views around Mac Rae Park were a perfect spot for a relaxing stroll. the accommodations themselves felt more like a motel, but the comfortable bed made for a decent night's rest after a busy day exploring the city.

    clean room
    limited breakfast
    rundown property

    The staff was friendly, and the room was clean, but the breakfast options were limited and I found some maintenance issues that should be addressed. The location is convenient, yet the property itself feels quite rundown and could use an uplift in decor.

    family-friendly activities
    spacious room
    unsafe pool area

    We really enjoyed visiting the Blank Park Zoo, where my teenagers were amazed by the over 800 animals! The variety was impressive and it made for a fun family outing. Our room was spacious enough for us, giving everyone a little breathing room.

    My kids wished the pool area was safer and better maintained. A clean and working pool is a must for families looking to relax together.

    strict breakfast policy

    Nice stay with some quirks

    I was really happy with how clean the place was and the staff was super friendly. The lobby’s nice and the BBQ restaurant was a fun treat. Just a heads up, breakfast rules were kinda strict and we had a little issue with our tub not having a drain stop. Overall, it was a decent experience.

    comfortable bed
    quiet air conditioning

    The stay was nice overall. I appreciated the comfort of the bed and the quiet air conditioning in the room. The location was good, making it easy to access local attractions. I did encounter some creepy crawlies during my stay, which impacted my experience, but I managed to enjoy my time. It reminded me of nature back home, which is quite different from the city life in Rome.

    italian pizza
    breakfast spread
    torn carpet
    lack of hot water

    If you’re on the prowl for authentic Italian pizza, you’ve hit the jackpot in Des Moines! Gotta rave about that slice. Plus, the breakfast spread wasn’t half bad, despite needing more fresh options.

    But the room was a hot mess—one washcloth for three people and the shower ran out of hot water faster than I could get my shampoo in. The hallway was practically a horror show with torn carpet and smells of dinner wafting around.

    clean atmosphere
    attached restaurant
    relaxing pool area
    inadequate equipment
    restrictive policy

    The hotel provided a clean and inviting atmosphere with a beautiful lobby that sets a positive tone upon arrival. I enjoyed the convenience of the attached restaurant, which served delicious meals and had a friendly staff. The pool area was relaxing, and the workout room, although in need of some maintenance, was adequate for my business needs.

    The workout equipment required maintenance, and the breakfast policy in rooms was restrictive.
