Staying here was a blast with my little one! We had a chance to visit the nearby Blank Park Zoo, where we were delighted by over 800 animals, from playful lemurs to majestic birds. The pool was also a hit with the kids, spacious and inviting.

For dads, it would be great if the breakfast options were more family-friendly. My kids wished for a variety of healthier choices instead of just standard fare.

The indoor pool area was relaxing. I found the bedding very comfortable. Check-in was seamless, and the location was convenient for attractions. The breakfast spread offered a decent variety. Overall, it made for a pleasant stay.

The room was super clean, and I loved the comfortable bedding. The indoor pool and BBQ facilities added a nice touch for relaxation. Just a heads up, breakfast could use a little improvement, but overall a great stay! 😊

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.

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.

I enjoyed my stay. The indoor pool area is relaxing. The bedding was comfortable, and the air conditioning worked quietly. The location is convenient for local attractions. The atmosphere felt inviting and well-maintained. 🏊‍♂️

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
