The suite is nice to travel with your family. The property definitely is older, but well maintained and clean. The breakfast was my favorite part, lots of choices and the quality was decent for a hotel breakfast. I loved their coffee! They also have snacks at night, which is nice.

This was by far the worst Embassy Suites I have stayed in and I was highly disappointed. Our room smelled very musty. The light fixtures in the bathroom were rusted all over terribly and the grout was moldy in the shower. The window tracks were full of dirt and not clean. My daughter went to sleep on the pull out couch and it was full of crumbs and the most uncomfortable thing ever. The mattress was thin and you could feel every spring. The double beds are small. Our air conditioner froze us out. There was no adjusting the temperature without just shutting it off which made the room smell worse. Our things like curling irons would not stay in the plug ins, they just fell out and some of the plug ins didn’t even work at all. The breakfast cook at the omelette area was grumpy. The cupboard doors in the food area were crooked and not straight on the hinges and the wood looked terrible on them. Just not a very pleasing sight as you were eating breakfast. It just felt run down and not kept up very good. I was highly disappointed because the room was VERY expensive!! When I was asked at check out how it all was I told the lady and she said she was very sorry but there wasn’t anything she could do since I booked through Hotels.com. She said she was going to give me 5000 points added to my Hilton membership but that wasn’t done either.

It was not horrible but torn wallpaper in spots. The furniture in our room was “worn”. The shower in our room needs new caulk. The bed was hard and my husband did not sleep well. Carpet outside elevators was dirty and worn. Our lady that checked us in was amazing but unfortunately I forgot her name :(

Room looked clean but the bathroom had a funky smell as if wet towels had been left in there for a few days and the mirror frame needed to be wiped off. It's those tiny details which need to be remembered. Staff was professional and courteous. Location was great. Beds were comfy.

Great location, plenty of parking nearby in a large garage across the street, friendly staff (especially the morning breakfast manager gentleman), clean. The towel bar in room 709 bathroom is partially pulled from the wall. But the shower really needs work. There’s one of those half-door/wall deals that completely floods the bathroom floor. It’s really frustrating.

Excellent staff including receptionist staff and breakfast staff and housekeeping team. The hotel was full and everyone worked together to make my stay a pleasure. Being able to walk from hotel to Arboretum event was pleasant. Also being able to walk to downtown farmers market was fantastic. The hotel people made me feel like family. I definitely recommend this hotel!

The snacks for evening reception had a lot to be desired: trail mix, chips and salsa, and vegetables and dip. And the breakfast buffet in the morning was lukewarm at best, unless you ordered the made to order omelet. We arrived right at the start of breakfast and it had cooled down that quickly.

My room was gross, old banana peel on the floor, appeared to be fieaces on the wall , soda all over front door back and front. Walls black from ventilation vents. All walls so dirty , furniture was like it belonged in a motel 6 . This is the worst embassy I have ever stayed at !!!! I travel alot and hope they can improve from this review . I will never stay here again , staff were nice but the property or rooms are gross!!! Even the breakfast was disgusting

Great location in the Capital district. We had a wonderful view of the Des Moines river and bridge. The hotel could use some updating and maintenance. Our window leaked when it rained and the doorknob to the bathroom came off when pulled. Breakfast was decent, but food service for dinner was limited and not as good. Very friendly staff.

Most hotel clerks greet you when you get to the counter and confirm the rate of the room, tell you that they will take a deposit per night. This man said none of that. He said hello and next words out his mouth were you can swipe your card when you’re ready.

The rooms were awful. Dated and there was a noticeable smell when you enter the room. The carpet was nasty and I didn’t even want to stay but it was only for one night.

Bright spots- valet, both the evening and morning guys and our server in the restaurant/bar area that evening was very nice.

I stayed there because it was the Embassy Suites, but never again.

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.

The staff was excellent in trying to handle the unfortunate mishap with our dog. We checked into our room it was warm and you could tell it hadn’t been open for awhile. Next morning still warm in room. I turned the heat down to 68 in room and fan on high.Went to our wrestling meet. Came back from meet our room was over 85 degrees and my dog was having a seizure from the heat in the room. They came to room checked temp said it was over 85 10 minutes after opening door and trying to get things cooled down. They said someone had turned the hot water line on only in the room cooler, they should have had both turned on. I seriously think we should be compensated in some way for this horrible experience of almost losing our poor dog and who knows how this is going to effect him in the future.

Hotel is outdated. House keeping kept bugging us, the knocked multiple times each day to check if we were in the room because they thought we were checking out and no one was in the room. There was no body wash, we asked for body wash, they gave us hand soap. When we checked in the lady said valet was $18/day, valet said it was $30/day. We opted to find our own parking. For an out dated hotel with no parking, we would have stayed somewhere else.
