I believe this hotel is in need of a renovation, as the bed and couch in my room were outdated. Additionally, there were issues with the elevator, which was shut down for a couple of days during my stay, forcing me to use the stairs to get in and out. On the positive side, the staff were wonderful and very helpful, which I greatly appreciated. However, for such a beautiful hotel located in the heart of downtown Des Moines, it did not meet my expectations.
