Book a hotel near Val Air Ballroom, Des Moines

"Really nice historic hotel in downtown. Good value for the price. On a quiet street with not much to walk around and do. Carpet was dingy and stained. Housekeeping showed up once the 3 nights we were there to see if we needed anything. It wasn’t explained to us at check in that we wouldn’t get service unless asked for so wondered where they were all weekend. My daughter thought the front desk person was rude but I just thought he was ok and just disinterested. Overall, I would stay there again."

"The sink drained very slow, took hours to drain. We washed up and brushed our teeth with the bathtub faucet. We were not aware that there would be a pet fee of $30.00 per dog per day."

"We have stayed at this rental multiple times. The property and apt are well mantained, very clean, and comfortable. The backyard is lovely in the warmer months. It was extremely hot while we were there and the rental was very comfortable the whole time. The bedrooms are cozy but roomy with good beds and the kitchen is well appointed for cooking. There was a coffee station and a complimentary bottle of wine, which was nice.. The neighborhood is quiet and very pleasant to take walks, and the rental is central to anything in DM.The landlord is quick to respond and communicates well.Highly recommended. "

"Cute little home that was perfect for two folks. Me and my daughter were in town for a softball tourney. This house has way more room and provides way more privacy via separate bedrooms than you would get from a hotel room... And it's more affordable! Great location in West Des Moines that was about 20 minutes from everywhere we needed to be this weekend. Also within walking distance to a gas station and only a block or two from a Walgreens and HyVee grocery store.Definitely have no issues staying here again if we are back in town for another tourney in the future. "

"Wonderful house with fabulous amenities within great proximity of Valley Junction and much more! Our group enjoyed our stay very much. "

"The house worked out great for our recent visit for a family wedding. The location was convenient, and the home was clean and exactly as advertised. The owner was very responsive to any questions we had, which made everything go smoothly. I would definitely stay here again on a future visit!"
