Stoney Creek Hotel Des Moines - Johnston

Stoney Creek Hotel Des Moines - Johnston

10/10 Excellent
"This is a good clean hotel to stay at. We had a room upgrade so that enhanced the stay for sure. It does have minor cosmetic issues but that does not really affect our stay. Staff was nice and friendly. Breakfast was what you would expect. Hot tub was clean and hot. The bed was a little to firm for our liking but was doable. All in all it’s a good place to stay clean and close to many attractions."
