Palaces in Iowa

"The staff was friendly. The hotel was clean. Breakfast was great. Beautiful lobby. Would definitely go again!"

"Staff, vallet, and room service was amazing!"

"Very clean hotel. Up to date. The double queen room was very large. No microwave in the room and the pool was small; otherwise, great stay. Loved the starbucks, bar, food options in the lobby."

"Yes"

"Waterpark was closed, so that was a bummer and not advertised on Expedia. But the main concern, was the fire alarm went off at 3am and the entire hotel had to evacuate. There was something wrong with the alarm in my room, as it emitted a typical loud fire alarm sound-but for some reason, it also emitted an extremely high pitch sound that was the loudest thing i have ever heard in my life. As I write this the next day, my ears are still ringing horribly. The sound of the alarm after 5 mins of trying to frantically get out of the building while cupping my ears in my room, likely has done permanent damage to my hearing in some Level. I mentioned it to the front desk the next day and told Then that if a baby or child was in that room, it could have serious permanent hearing loss. They gave a “sorry, we will get someone to check it out. Take care.” I come to Dubuque often, but will not Come back here -only because of the damage to my ringing ears."

"We always look for a Drury when traveling. Great locations, rooms very clean rooms, good food, excellent value!"

"So I actually stayed here for about 7/8 weeks I believe. Jan to mar 2026 when I move here recently. Had everything I needed and more than the previous numerous hotels I’d stayed in at a cheaper cost. Had a nice small kitchen, place was clean, heating/ac worked fine. I’ll honestly have fond memories of my time here while I settled in to the city before getting my apartment. The staff were really nice and helpful in any way they could be. I managed through those weeks without a car at that time also and it was useful to have some nearby things like gas station, places to eat at walkable distance and also a bus stop close by, which is only a few minutes walk if you cut through the hotel next door. This hotel was basically my first home after moving to Des Moines. If I have friends or family visit from the uk I’ll happily suggest this place to them. "

"Breakfast was heated in the microwave and was subpar. There was a homeless man in the front lobby for 2 of the 4 days we stayed, and he and the front desk receptionist were arguing. Beds were queen size but felt somewhat smaller. The bathroom had no exhaust fan and when the restroom was used it smelled for quite some time, also when showering the bathroom turned into a sauna... not good. But otherwise if looking for an extremely budget friendly hotel in a good part of town, its a go to."

"The rooms were extremely clean, the staff were outstandingly amazing, the breakfast every morning felt like home cooking and tasted just like it to, and the pool area was perfect for children and adults! Overall 10/10 love this place!"
