Staybridge Suites Des Moines Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"The greeter at the front desk was pleasant and knowledgeable. We were attending a concert at Woolys. Easily walkable to the venue and we had dinner beforehand at the Iowa Taproom. Also easily walkable. Clean hotel and room. Coffee was delicious the next morning. Breakfast looked and smelled great but we chose to eat at the breakfast club a couple blocks away. "
