I’ve stayed here several times. It’s always a pleasant stay. The beds are too firm for my taste. But that’s just what it is, my preference. I will definitely stay there again.

Place is beautiful, full breakfast offered though it’s noticeable that they have few staff, Netflix doesn’t work, had a blocked toilet that I informed them about but nothing was done about it. For the price I absolutely think they can do better!

Staff are very friendly and helpful with dinner recommendations. Elevator was out of service when returning from dinner, long painful walk to my 5th floor room after a big meal. Only other con may be thin windows or insulation. So much traffic noise at all hours of the night. What is with Des Moines motorcycles and "race cars" constantly cruising around downtown all night long? Overall, lovely hotel with character and near excellent dining (Centro). I recommend and will return next time I'm in town for work.
