Very clean and modern suite room. Free full breakfast and free Mon-Wed cocktail hour with hot food. Rooms were very quiet and blackout shades were excellent. Five minutes walking distance away from downtown dining district and sports locations. Full-sized refrigerator and even had dishwasher, stovetop, cooking implements and dinner setting for four.

We love staying a at StayBridge . This was the first time to be unhappy. We where there 8 days and they made the bed and cleaned the room 1 time. And I had to find a housekeeper there and ask for it to be cleaned.

The hotel staff were amazing. Everything was perfect. I was visiting Des Moines to watch my grandson in the NJHRF, but I was in a virtual class throughout the day. I felt safe, the breakfast was amazing, and the WiFi fit my needs. I highly recommend Staybridge Suites Downtown Des Moines. I can’t recall the name of the lady at the front desk most of the week, but she was fantastic!

Comfy hotel in the heart of the city

The hotel was overall fine - no frill or anything exciting but we enjoyed our stay. The rooms were comfortable and it was an overall nice hotel for a family stay.

The sofa bed mattresses are very uncomfortable. We had 3 rooms and all were the same. Our group had to lay on just the sofa or put extra pillows on top of mattress to sleep on it. There seems to be stiff cords under the mattress cover that make it feel like the springs are poking through. The breakfast offered healthy options. The reception staff was very pleasant!
