Staff was great! This is an excellent hotel. We had a great experience. Nolan and Brenda were personable, professional and especially helpful. Our room was very nice with an excellent rate. The restaurant staff and food were great, too. We will definitely stay here again.

Good for an overnight easy access from Interstate 80. Well done renovation with freshened rooms. Attached restaurant was a bit understaffed and overwhelmed though the food was good. Were told there would be a 45 minute wait for a table. We sat at the bar and had menus in our hands within 5 minutes. If there was any improvement to be made it would be in breakfast offering. Only a full buffet was available, no cold buffet or light breakfast.

Horrible hotel Disgusting. Smelly rooms elevators that do not work. Stay away. Smells like smoke all over the place and in the rooms. Ac shifts off. Bathrooms so cramped. Would never suggest anyone with a family stay at this specific location. The rooms are so small. They are not spacious at all.. .

Dirty, Chaotic and Loud The check in process was slow and chaotic. The carpet in the room was not clean and the shower had long hairs in the tub. The room door would not close. The hotel has a smoking area outside the hotel which is very near hotel rooms. Smokers congregate early in the morning (6:00 am) and they make a lot of noise waking hotel guests. This hotel was a major disappointment.

There's a Mouse in the House My family (including a baby) were traveling west and stopped at the Holiday Inn in Des Moines along the way. The staff was friendly, and the room was comfortable and quiet. You could tell it was a bit older, but still very nice. We ordered from the restaurant, which was decent. I would not recommend it unless you wanted to stay close to the property for the evening. There are better options if you venture out a bit. I did experience an issue during my stay. Around 4 AM, while I was caring for my infant daughter I saw a mouse in our room. I went down to the front desk and alerted staff of the issue, and they informed me they encountered the issue on two other occasions primarily on the second and third floors. They offered to move us to another room, which we did. We were also offered free breakfast coupon, money off our bill, and additional rewards points. We did not receive the additional money off the bill or rewards points. After contacting the hotel about it, I did not receive a response. Overall, the hotel was quiet, comfortable and staff was friendly. However, I cannot recommend staying here until the rodent issue is handled.
