Ramada Tropics Resort & Conf Center by Wyndham Des Moines

Ramada Tropics Resort & Conf Center by Wyndham Des Moines

10/10 Excellent
"Was nice hotel little outdated in room curtains are very worn but overall room was clean. Breakfast was good nothing special waffles and cereal along with fruit and granola bars. Was disappointed Sunday when went down to breakfast early Sunday to watch Vikings game in the breakfast area(which is the bar in the hotel) asked to turn on tv(which were working sat morning) but was told they don't come with the breakfast area and the bar people won't be there until 11 to turn them on. 😔 will probaly stay again if in area the kids love the pools just needs some updating in rooms."
