Perfect Stay

Our stay at Holiday Inn & Suites on Merle Hay Rd. in Des Moines, IA was wonderful. Employees are very accomodating. They had a restaurant connected to the hotel, which we did not go to but was nice to know we could have. Pool is open til midnight and they are very child friendly. Will definitely be coming back next time we travel to Des Moines.
Rachel, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Good, almost great but not quite there

Hotel staff was amazing. Our room was nice. Lots of dings and scratches all around that made me nervous if theyd charge us for it even though it was there prior to us. They didn't have trash can liners that i thought was odd. Found a dog chew toy up agaisnt the bed frame on the floor but everything else was super clean! The bed and pillows were perfect.
Elizabeth, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Bed bugs in the room.

Hotel room 220 had bed bugs. We have bites all over body. Management was made aware. They said they would return my stay payment but only gave me a discount for the inconvenience. Wich did not even cover for the precautions we had to take in order to not expose our home to bed bugs. Terrible experience, painful and uncomfortable.
Nubia, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Comfortable and Quiet

I was traveling for business in the Des Moines area and stayed here. Commute to and from downtown Des Moines wasn't bad, with travel time around 20 minutes one way. The room was clean and quiet. The shower head didn't have a lot of power, but it got the job done and was the only negative from my experience. Overall, the hotel was great, and I will stay there again in the future.

Hotel and out room was very clean , room was quiet with a comfortable bed and clean bathroom.
Joanna, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The only issue we had was paying for a suite that was near something that made outrageous noise kicking on and off. Was told at checkout it was the elevator. Would have appreciated some type of compensation for not sleeping due to noise.
Brenda, 1-night trip

Should have free breakfast!
Lee, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Don’t waste your time staying!

I was double charged and have yet to see my money back, I called to the front desk and they were short staffed so they couldn’t bring me what I asked for & the hotel was crowded w antique pots bc they had a sell going on within the rooms so it caused for slow elevators etc
