Ramada by Wyndham des Moines Airport
3.4/5104 Reviews
This was one of the worst hotels I've ever stayed at. Our first room had a ”view” of the atrium (and I use that word generously), meaning that we would need to keep the curtains closed at all times. We didn't keep that room for long though -- not after discovering more problems (no soap in the bathroom, somebody's ice packs in the refrigerator and worst of all WADDED-UP DIRTY CLOTHES IN THE DRESSER). I called the front desk about the problems and they said they would inspect another room so we could move. Thirty minutes later, our 2nd room was only slightly better. We wiped down all the surfaces with Clorox wipes and saw that the bathroom counter was especially dirty. Basic things you need in a room were absent -- we had only two hangers in the closet, and no luggage rack. Both rooms' sinks and bathtubs were dated and rusty. Someone else in our group rushed over to Wal-Mart to buy flip- flops because she didn't want her feet to touch the bathroom floor or tub. Way, way overpriced at $154/night including taxes. If we hadn't been stuck at this property because of a group reservation, we would have asked for a refund and bailed out.
Staybridge Suites Des Moines Downtown, an IHG Hotel
4.6/5100 Reviews
Two bedrooms, one king bed, two Queen beds, two families, and a washing machine dryer on the first floor, very convenient!
Fairfield Inn & Suites des Moines Downtown
4.3/575 Reviews
The hotel is close to the city center, and the transportation in and out is very convenient. The price is very close to the people, it should be said that the price is very high. Especially the breakfast, which is richer than the average three-star hotel. There are some choices, which are quite real.
Quality Inn & Suites des Moines Airport
3.5/5103 Reviews
Stayed here while visiting family in Des Moines. Pleasantly surprised by the overall condition of the property. Usually airport motels are rough and run down. Not this one. The check in was smooth and very friendly. We got a room just off the lobby. Quiet. Room was super clean. Carpet fresh. Bathroom was new looking. No complaints. Bed very comfortable and slept so well. The pool area was very clean, ample towels, and nice size. Water was crystal clear and looked like the pool had been renovated, cause so clean and pure. Only complaint I would have is that the hot tub was not working. I would definitely stay here again.
Holiday Inn Express & Suites des Moines Downtown
4.5/597 Reviews
The staff was so friendly! We had a bit of miscommunication between the hotel and trip.com regarding payment, but they got it worked out quickly and the staff were quick to make things right for us! We enjoyed both the hot tub & pool and both were exactly what we needed!! The hotel was far enough from downtown to be peaceful but close enough that everything was accessible. The biggest thing that stood out was how accommodating the staff were. Absolutely recommend.
