Location & Access

The hotel is a 5-minute drive from the Iowa Events Center and Iowa State Capitol Building. It connects to 4 miles of climate-controlled skywalks leading to the Ruan Center, 801 Grand/Principal Tower, and other downtown buildings. A free shuttle operates within downtown and to the airport.

Services & Conveniences

Guests have access to dry cleaning, laundry services, and express check-in/out. The hotel provides three meeting rooms and a 24-hour business center. Odds & Ends offers must-have items for purchase or borrowing.

“There's a modern energy to this downtown spot, from the tech-ready rooms to the climate-controlled skywalk that whisks you to nearby attractions; the 24-hour quick service is a definite plus for late-night cravings or early-morning fuel. I see it as a practical choice, especially with its pet-friendly policy and complimentary breakfast, even if some operational hiccups occasionally surface. Overall, it seems a solid base for exploring Des Moines.”
