Fine for one night stay near airport

No one at the front desk on multiple occasions. No elevator- had to drag heavy suitcases up a flight of stairs. Room was clean, AC worked well, close proximity to airport.

Not as good as reviews say

The staff at checkin wasn’t straight rude but definitely not friendly. The overall appearance looked of remodel not quite done right, tape on the floor, patches showing and painted over, etc. And the cameras everywhere made it feel like it was not a good part of town, which the beachfront area of Des Moines is definitely not a bad area. And the bed…I think I would have rather slept on a cot. For the amount of good reviews this place has gotten, very disappointing

Fairly newly renovated. One block from puget sound bay. The Breakfast was very limited because it was continental. Planes would go over frequently but you never heard them in the inn. Convenient small grocery store across the street. The inn had it's own free private parking. Very little traffic. Staff was great. Great value and budget minded so don't expect high quality sheets and towels. They had one coin washer and dryer for laundry. 2 story building with no elevator so if stairs are an issue you need to request a 1st floor room. Only one luggage cart dolly available. Overall we would stay there again.

This room was the largest of our 10 nights on vacation. We loved having this extra space because we were preparing to fly the next day. I liked the various lighting options in the room and the separate counter with extra sink for food and beverage prep! Two blocks from the Pugent Sound with overlooks that was nice to walk to. Biggest disappointment was the breakfast, which was minimal with a bunch of carbs and yogurt cups and no one really staffing it. Fortunately we had food to eat in our room. Staff wasn't the most friendly of the 3 ppl we saw. If you get a room on the 2nd floor, there is no elevator.

My terrible experience starts from the check-in. The lady at the front desk was like, why I'm there at 11 pm. She didn't want to answer any questions I have about the property amenities. I asked her that do you have any drinking water here or a vending machine. And she said you can check over there by the breakfast station but I don’t know. How do you not know? You work there. She was very rude and showed me an attitude for asking questions. I found the vending machine and I put money in it. But everything was sold out. It won't give me my money back either. If everything is sold out then why didn't you put a sign there or just turn it off. There were long hair on my bed sheets and even on the towels. They were dirty. It was a terrible experience staying at this hotel.
Dirty towel with a long hair stuck in it.

Nice room for the price. Beds were comfortable and the room was a little bigger than most. Our room had a fairly strong smell of cleaning product.
