The breakfast was fantastic, offering tons of fresh options, and the room was spacious with a great kitchen layout. However, the train noise was a bit annoying at night. I would definitely choose this place again!

Couples looking for space will like this place
The room was spacious, had a full kitchen like a restaurant, and a comfortable sofa bed. The hotel staff really stood out, especially the friendly woman at breakfast, she made sure everything was stocked.
It wasn't exactly cheap but acceptable enough for the comfort offered.

The King Studio with Sofa Bed was spacious and well-equipped, making it nice for a weekend stay. Local cheese was a tasty addition to the breakfast spread, which had some friendly staff assisting, unlike the front desk experience where service felt a bit lackluster and disinterested. The location is convenient with several restaurants nearby. however, the noise from the passing train was disruptive, particularly in the early morning, which detracted from the overall experience.

Fantastic stay with great downtown access!
I loved the spacious two-bedroom suite which was perfect for our group. The hotel's proximity to downtown Des Moines allowed us to easily explore local restaurants and attractions. The evening gatherings with generous snacks and drinks were a highlight, creating a nice social atmosphere. One downside was the high parking fee, which added to our overall costs.

We stayed in a King Studio with Sofa Bed. The layout was cool, with a kitchen area that was nice for hanging out. But the mattress was pretty soft, and I wasn't a fan of the pillows either. The window view looked out onto a brick wall, which was honestly a drag. It just felt a bit outdated for a Marriott. The bathroom was decent size, though!

Nice hotel with great amenities like fast wi-fi, a cute 24-hour reception, and a pleasant indoor swimming pool. I fondly remember how the staff helped my elderly parents during our first visit. I'm eager to return for my next trip.

But honestly, the toilet paper holder was sagging like it was auditioning for a soap opera! And with all that space, I still couldn't find my forehead in the morning, too much room for me!
