Staff was not the nicest. 5 of us staying and were only allowed 3-4 towels at a time. To get more towels we had to take dirty towels to front desk to exchange for clean. One wash rag was used to clean up a chocolate ice cream accident, staff gave attitude because of this and said I could be charged because now they have to use bleach to wash. Due to staff attitude and rudeness I would not stay here again.

So/so

We stayed for two nights; they don't offer house keeping during your stay, so you have to go to the front desk if you want more towels, shampoo, etc. Breakfast was ok, not so may options but warm eggs and sausage was great. The website and this app are outdated though, as they said they had an exercise room but did not. Pool room was very humid, very chlorine smell, so much so it'll make your eyes burn. That being said, I'm not sure if their venting system is working, as the door frames and metal all around the pool was very corroded and rusted out. Room could use more cleaning as we found popcorn under the bed from previous occupants.

We booked what I thought was a king suite with a sofa bed for our mini vacation to Adventureland. We arrived in Des Moines an hour early and they let us check in early. However, the room was just a king bed, no sofa bed. The gentleman at the desk quickly helped us out and got us switched to a room with two queen beds. The room was clean, quiet and the AC worked great. Bed was comfy. Good value for the money. All the staff members I interacted with were accommodating and polite. The location is also great. Close to lots of restaurants and stores, and a 10 min countryside drive to Adventureland.
