Ramada Tropics Resort & Conf Center by Wyndham Des Moines

10/10 Excellent

"Overall I would say this is a 4/5 star. Pros- beds were super comfortable, nice clean linens and rooms. Which were even furnished with a small kitchenette that had a single cup coffee pot, refrigerator and microwave!!!! AC in Room worked great. Cons- the shower head didn't work as well and most the water was leaking from the faucet. The outside needs cleaned up as trash was blown everywhere, however it did not effect the inside. I would definitely stay here again!!!!! My kids really enjoyed the Waterpark as well and everything was In working order."

Stoney Creek Hotel Des Moines - Johnston

8/10 Good

"Very cute place to stay. Room was clean. Safe area. Didn't get to use the pool or hot tub as they were under construction. Didn't use the bar but it looked cute. Felt safe in the area. Good parking lot. Had to leave before breakfast hours but they did offer breakfast. Would definitely stay again!"

Comfort Inn & Suites Ankeny - Des Moines

8/10 Good

"Overall the room was clean, but the air conditioning didn't remove much of the humidity so wet clothes and towels didn't dry. Our stay was 3 days which is how long they go between housekeeping when you are staying longer than one night. On the 2nd day we asked the front desk for housekeeping to bring more towels, but they didn't and when we asked for some we had to go down to the desk to get them. The breakfast was okay. There is no longer a whirlpool/hot tub in the pool area. The pool is not heated, which was ok since we were there on some of the hottest days of the summer. The hotel is right off the interstate, which was very convenient and it wasn't far from other things in the metro area. Our rooms were on the end closest to the highway, but were couldn't hear any noise from it."
