This hotel is old and dirty. The pictures of the property online are misleading. My first room had no hot water and there was a moldy bath mat in the shower. I was switched to a slightly better room, but it wasn’t great. The room had dingy window curtains and duvet, nasty looking toilet & shower, and scuffed up furniture. Do not stay here.

Disappointed

The pull-out couch bed had holes in it the beds were uncomfortable and the pool was questionable so we didn't let our kids swim in it the staff was extremely friendly and the breakfast was pretty good..... but having to pay $30 for parking was a bummer..... if I would have known about that we might have stayed somewhere else we have stated other Hyatt locations like in downtown Oklahoma City and it was a 10 out of 10 experience unfortunately the downtown Des Moines Hyatt was disappointing

Depreciating value.

Staff was decent. This not being our first stay at the property, we expected the usual. However, the property has consistently gone down hill in comfort and condition. King room mattress was worse than the mattress on the sofa bed. Shower door and bathroom tile condition poor.

Overall it was a good experience but we found a big pinkish/red stain on the sheets when we went to bed and the glass shower door wouldn’t stay shut so water went everywhere. The staff was very nice and the breakfast was great.

Perfect Nights Stay

It was absolutely perfect, from the moment we were greeted by the person at the front desk to last moment we were saying good bye. We were only staying one night and didn't know what to expect but the price was right and the access to the Skywalk were the reasons we chose Hyatt Place. Now we are staying there again because of everything else. The room was large and clean. The bed was very comfortable, and the free breakfast was spot on. Great job and thank you!
