Overall Score5.0/ 5
We had a wedding in downtown Des Moines and this hotel was in a great location and the staff was very helpful with advice and places to see in the area. We liked the rooms and the hotel decor is amazing!

"Sunday night stay."
Overall Score5.0/ 5
Everything about my stay was beyond my expectations. The lobby is gorgeous. The rooms are so well designed. And they are energy efficient. A key needs to be inserted into a key holder for the lights to be turned on. I will definitely be staying here again! The front desk person, Sean, was very helpful as well. Gave dinner recommendations, made an espresso for me and gave a brief history of the hotel. Bravo!

"Adequate"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
No breakfast, no coffee in room, parking fee, extreme rate price. Why? Weekend rates? Bar prices, still Covid gouging?.
