The best characteristic of this hotel is the staff, who are so friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The breakfast is great. The rooms are comfortable with good closets and very nice mattresses and pillows. A very special thanks to Darcy and Kathy who welcomed me every morning to breakfast. Their kind and cheerful demeanor really helped to start my day well.

Hidden gem

Skyline suite is absolutely stunning. Almost apartment like. Parking was full but Des Moines has skywalks that lead to parking garages which make it convenient in the winter.

Great family visit

When we arrived we were greeted immediately and the gentleman let us know about our parking options. He also helped bring our bags, from a family of 5, up to our room and unloaded them all. I wish I would have grabbed his name!
