Hotels in West Des Moines, IA

“We came to town for a friend's baby shower and absolutely were blown away by the quality and cleanliness of our room and the complimentary continental breakfast. The front desk displayed excellent friendliness upon arrival and upon checkout. We had no problems during our stay which was wonderful.”

“The rooms are sizeable, nice and quiet, fullsize refrigerator, stove burners, no cookware or utensils. The breakfast is limited. The grounds are very nice for sitting outside. I did find it very difficult to teach the front desk on several occasions in my 1 day stay.”

“Great location - short overnight stay. Hyatt members and booked with the free night on my husband's account but they wouldn't let me use it since he wasn't there, which has never been a problem in the past. Overall room was pretty clean, but there was a build up of dust/dirt all around the ceiling vent over the closet that should've been cleaned.”

“We had just stayed at a Hilton Garden Inn the previous night for the same price. Apples to apples Sheraton surpassed that Hilton because of... Pillows, noise level, seating, TV (showed show you were watching and also what was on next!) The only complaint I would have is we asked for 2 more coffees and the front desk clerk said he would send them to our room and we never got them.”

“We recently stayed at this Marriott and had the absolute pleasure of being helped by Tyson. From the moment we arrived, he went above and beyond to make our stay exceptional.
He was incredibly friendly, professional, and attentive, and personally arranged a generous upgrade that turned our standard reservation into a true luxury experience. It was clear he’s passionate about delivering outstanding guest service.
Tyson is the kind of employee every Marriott should have — proactive, kind, knowledgeable, and truly dedicated. He made us feel valued and taken care of the entire time. Thanks to him, our stay was memorable for all the right reasons.
If you’re staying at this Marriott, ask for Tyson — you won’t be disappointed. He deserves all the recognition and praise from his leadership for the incredible job he does. Highly recommend this property because of stars like him!”

“We stayed there recently for 5 nights. Super clean hotel. Great room. Great location - close to highways and many food options. 15 minutes to get into the city. A special mention to Susan who maintained the breakfast area - the food was always stocked, she worked diligently to keep the place clean AND she was super nice!! My wife Natasha and I enjoyed chatting with her.
Thank you again for a great 5 days there!”

“So I actually stayed here for about 7/8 weeks I believe. Jan to mar 2026 when I moved here recently. Had everything I needed and more than the previous numerous hotels I’d stayed in at a cheaper cost. Had a nice small kitchen, place was clean, heating/ac worked fine. I’ll honestly have fond memories of my time here while I settled in to the city before getting my apartment. The staff were really nice and helpful in any way they could be. I managed through those weeks without a car at that time also and it was useful to have some nearby things like gas station, places to eat at walkable distance and also a bus stop close by, which is only a few minutes walk if you cut through the hotel next door. This hotel was basically my first home after moving to Des Moines. If I have friends or family visit from the uk I’ll happily suggest this place to them.

I’d moved the chair myself to that position since I knew I was going to be there for quite some time. Normally it’s out of the way in the corner.”

“I thought I got the motel 6 deal next to the airport, I guess the deal transferred me to this one several miles away, even so the service at this motel was excellent front desk people with top notch, and of course the reason I was here was dogs stay for free, highly appreciate this opportunity, motel 6 rocks.”
