The hotel is hard to find because it is located in the Jordan creek center so when I mapquested it took me in all sorts of directions accept the right one but once I found it it was a nice hotel. The picture they have on file does not do it justice. The inside is very nice for a 3... More

We used the Residence Inn in West Des Moines for our annual winter get-away. We had 14 people coming from various parts of Iowa and met at this location. The main gathering room was a 2 bedroom suite with a nice sized living room area. What we liked about this room is that it had enough room for everyone to... More

I don't want to be negative, but I stay in Hotels 3-4 nights per week. Decided to try the residence inn in des Moines. I travel to this area on a regular basis and have not found my home yet. I assure you this is not it! Great location within walking distance of great restaurants and a shopping mall. But... More

Our family of six (kids ages 9-14) spent a night here on the road between Colorado & Chicago. It was a little hard to find because it is in the rear of a large mall/shopping area, but it is not far from the interstate, and I'm guessing that folks who stay for long periods would enjoy the short walk to...

I needed a place with at least a microwave and fridge in order to feed myself - Residence Inn has a full, well-appointed kitchen.

We stayed here for one night over Christmas break. We had zero complaints. The lobby refreshments for the evening happy hour was a great surprise, and hit the spot. The pool was large, and nice and warm. Our room was clean and well appointed. The breakfast was also really great. Lots of good options. The patio was pretty and if... More

We were visiting family over Christmas and stayed for one night. The room was large and had a sitting area and kitchen with stove, fridge, microwave, and dishwasher. Great location next to Jordan Creek Mall, restaurants, and other shopping within walking distance of hotel. Will definitely plan to stay again when traveling in the Des Moines area!

Staff very friendly and helpful. Awesome location. Was on a girl's weekend, parked my car on Friday and didn't get back in til Sunday. Is within walking distance to a couple malls, restaurants, and movie theatre. Will return! Only complaint is sofa sleeper - not very comfortable.

Great happy hour every day. Close to mall. Wifi very spotty in room 213. Far from airport. Good for a few nights.
