We were in DM for a hockey tournament and were supposed to stay at the 'valley west inn'. Thank goodness for TripAdvisor, I avoided that scary place. I usually stick to the IC Hotels or Hilton brands, and got a deal at the Staybridge through my company's corporate rate. The King Studio has a full sized kitchen, nice bath separate... more

This was the nicest hotel we stayed at on our trip, and one of the most reasonable. The hotel was brand new - granite countertops in awesome kitchens, and great furnishings. The decor was teal and brown, very modern. The hotel was immaculate, and pet friendly. A great location at a great price. Breakfast was good too. They have a... more

No complain about this place,everything were great. Unfortunately they raised the price this year, too high to stay there again. more

We had an after hours for a bachelor party here. We requested a room with some leniency in regards to noise level, and they were fine with that. Pool is open 24/7, which is a huge plus. Excellent breakfast in the morning. Definitely one of the best hotels for the price in the Des Moines area. more

The Holiday Inn Staybridge Suites was located in a former, I believe, Hawthorne Suite location in the Jordan Creek area of West Des Moines. I thought... more

We stayed here during the Iowa State Fair. While the rooms are large and reasonably well-furnished, we found management unresponsive. We have a two-year old daughter. My brother and his family were also visiting, he has a one-year old daughter. We had each requested cribs upon reservation, and I called the day before our arrival to confirm a crib. Upon... more

I stayed at this hotel on July 20th and it was great. Well taken care of, efficent staff, clean rooms all the things you could want in a hotel. We were on the first floor, so I'm not sure what part of the hotel was "tired" as the reviewer before me stated, but the part I was in was great.... more

We have stayed at this hotel for the past five years while we visted family in West Des Moines Iowa. It is getting to be a tired and run down hotel. Sofas and chairs in the rooms are showing wear and water stains on the ceilings and mold growing in the bathrooms. A broken door in the pool area with... more
