Wildwood Lodge
10/10 Excellent
"I was in town for a baseball tournament and had stayed at Wildwood a couple years ago for the same reason. Wildwood was just as great then as it was this stay. Staff were very friendly and very patient during the busy breakfasts. Actually, the guests getting breakfast were pretty chill, too. And there were quite a few folks taking advantage of the free breakfast. :) The rooms are a little dated but my room was clean and in pretty good overall condition. Overall I’d definitely stay here again next year."
Des Lux Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Staff and room were exceptional in everyway!"
Embassy Suites Hotel Des Moines Downtown
6/10 Okay
"The location was great, so many places within walking distance. One of the reasons we chose this hotel was it advertised free parking - which was not true. It was $38/night to valet or parking was $10/night in a ramp across the street, which was a bit of a pain to get in and out of. Also, there was an extremely large wedding that occupied not only the ballrooms, but much of the shared common space and the music was so loud, so late, that it was hard to sleep."
