Top West Des Moines Hotel Reviews

SpringHill Suites Des Moines West

SpringHill Suites Des Moines West

8/10 Good
"The room was well-arranged, clean, and comfortable. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Breakfast was exactly what you would expect- nothing fancy, but tasty, well stocked, and clean. Our only complaint is that the AC seemed to be struggling to maintain a comfortable temperature, leaving the room mildly warm. They appeared to be in the process of updating the units, we were just unlucky and got a room that hadn't been updated yet."
