Pros: Clean room, pretty quite
Cons: Room did not have a view of the pool, which we paid for. Booking said it included breakfast, not true, just got vouchers for 18 dollars of and had to pay the balance which was $11,very expensive for what it was. Was told the total would be $179 and was charged $195.

Pros: Kitchen and housekeeping staff was very friendly.
Cons: Bathroom was small. Miscommunication on breakfast included, get coupons up to $9 value for up to 2 people when we had 3 in our party. Game room was huge disappointment, none of the 5 games worked. Hotel was under construction so some elevators were not in use.

Pros: The balcony access was nice, although there was no way to access the room from the sliding glass door without unlocking it from inside.
Cons: The included "free" breakfast was only for two, in the form of vouchers. We were traveling with children so it cost us another $20 for breakfast that we weren't expecting.
The rooms were of adequate size and cleanliness, but we had trouble getting it cool enough for sleeping temperature.
The pool was much smaller than it looked online. The room was listed as a balcony/pool view room. We did have a view of the pool/common area, but the common area is divided into two levels with the pool on the lower portion so we couldn't sit outside our room and watch the kids play in the pool.

Pros: The hotel is well located, with easy access from the airport, Hwy. 65/5, I-235, and downtown Des Moines. The courtyard area is very pleasant and the fitness center is above average. I stay here a couple of times a year for meetings.
Cons: The only issue I had was with parking. When I arrived, there was no parking available that I could find. There were signs advertising free valet parking, but when I spoke with an attendant, I was told that it was only for guests at the evening event, not overnight guests. I think overnight guests should ALWAYS have first priority on parking at a hotel.
