Typical/average room. Had trouble getting connection to internet, but problem was resolved.
It was an okay experience. Good value for the room
The object was to be close to DSM for a 5:45 am flight. Could have walked there in 5 minutes if the limo did not arrive: mission accomplished. Unexpectedly, at check-in, reception offered a bag of breakfast goodies since the breakfast restaurant would not be open. That was great! It would have been lovelier if the lounge/restaurant had been open for a drink and meal away from the swimming pool, but in a few months that will happen. Hope it is good.
Very comfortable stay convenient grill located inside
Staff was very professional and helpful. The front desk made check in and out very easy and quick. The driver that took us to airport was friendly and courtous. We had breakfast at the hotel and it was fast flavorful and staff was knowledgeable about the menu. Rooms were very clean and and well equiped.
Easy check in & check out. Across the street from the airport.
Relaxed
I stayed overnight for an early flight. The staff was hospitable and I recommend the food from the lounge restaurant.
I travel a lot for business and see a lot of hotels. This one was a very pleasant surprise for my wife and I to stay the night. Wished we had the time to experience all the amenities.
It was great from beginning to end. We also flew back into town a week later and they were more than happy to come pick us up and drop us off at our car in the neighboring secured parking lot.
everything went as planned good food nice room
The pool area is nice, but the entire hotel is rather dark. Front desk construction is going on. The resturant which is pool-side was very ad-hoc and not appealling to the eye. We elected to dine else-where. The air-conditioning and humidity levels in the building were high. But this is typical for July in Iowa. It is extremely close to the airport. (DSM)
