4.6/5
Outstanding
We had a weekend visit with family. Modern, very clean hotel across the street from Drake University. Near some good restaurants and at least one coffee house. Easy to drive around town. We had a suite that slept six with a small kitchen. We really used the fridge and microwave. Fold-out sofa was comfortable for me, with two queen beds. Shower could have used more power. We never tried the breakfast. My middle school nieces liked the indoor pool. Pretty quiet for the most part, but was getting crowded on the weekend. Appreciated the security features, such as no way to access elevators without room key. Staff were very helpful. Easy check in.

This review is about a month and a half late but better late than never. My partner and I were in town for a family emergency. Upon arrival we were greeted and checked in by Charlie, whom we later learned was just in Des Moines to help out. Charlie was phenomenal for the entirety of our 4 day stay. He was very welcoming and professional - when the rest of my family came over before we went to the little restaurant/bar downstairs Charlie took the time to give us a little tour and history of the building. Not only is the building history very intrigueing but Charlie did a great job of making us feel right at home. We also learned a little about the hotel company and are looking forward to booking a stay at another venue soon. Highly recommend the hotel- very cute, and cozy. The barista in the morning helped us with coffee and was very nice. The service at the Restaurant/bar was a little slow but we also came in toward the end of the night so I'd assume everyone was just tired and ready to get out of there. Overall 100% - I am originally from Iowa and will be staying at the Surety Hotel for all future return trips.

TTravelerfromArizonaOkay, where to start? 1. They do not have an airport shuttle after midnight. This is NOT stated on their website claiming to be an ”airport” hotel. 2. It took a bit to get a $27.50 ride that was less than 2 miles to this hotel 3. The ”lady' at the front desk hates her job. 4. When I said these things, she comment was take it up with management. She said they never listen to them etc (she hates her job) I said I would and I will drive the point home at this point, I guess this flipped her lid. She slaps the keys on the counter after several guffaws and such. I picked them up the same way she slapped them down. 5. This really set her off and she got nasty. I told her I picked them up the same darn way she slapped them down. She said f*ck you, I said it back and she kept going and going, at this point I felt the need to keep her going as I walked to the elevator and she did not disappoint. This hotel is clearly poorly run. The employees hate their job and the ”guests” are clearly a nuisance to them. Short of me yelling or getting out of line there is no cause for her mouth, other than she is a miserable human being (at least tonight). I had a second reservation for tomorrow night and I cancelled it and will be staying downtown. I only hope that hotel is not under the same management (stay tuned) When you are traveling, things don't always go well. This was a long day and it was made far worse by Brandy. Brandy is not a happy person and she hates her job. My guess is the shuttle driver does and probably everyone else here does as well. I will make sure this one is on the never again list. That makes 2 or 3 over the last 30 years, quite an accomplishment a few minutes into the stay. If you are flying into Des Moines it is advisable to prearrange transportation as the airport and the surrounding hotels are not up to the simple task of getting you to the hotel. When you call them out, they are not capable of a rational response or anything even remotely professional.

EEthan ClarkNo itemized receipt. The hotel just charges whatever they want and you have no idea for what. Cash less amenities bar, anyone can charge to any room without verification. Pretty sure unless there's a $120 charge for nothing, I paid for someone else's stuff.

Very good hotel, every service staff is very patient... I can hardly speak English, and I can use translation software to be barrier-free... Good breakfast, very good drop-off service... Very close to the airport... The big supermarket next to it is convenient Shopping for food... I haven't commented on Ctrip for many years, this hotel is worth recommending...

GGuest UserMy wife and I arrived around 4pm. We were greeted right away, and given a king bed room on the first floor, facing the parking lot. Check in and check out went great. Both desk clerks that we visited with were very nice and friendly. And the other couple of employees we ran into were equally as nice. Our room was clean, and smelled good. It’s not a huge room, but it worked for us. Bathroom and shower worked great. The shower was actually quite powerful. There is a microwave and refrigerator. Tv worked great, with plenty of channels to choose from. I did not hear much noise from surrounding rooms, or the hallway. The parking lot is large, and is well lit at night. The hotel is a stones throw away from one of the entrances to the Iowa State fairgrounds. E Grand avenue heads back towards downtown. It is a straight away easy way to head to downtown and back. You drive right by the State Capitol building. The breakfast serving area is tiny, but it works. They did have biscuits and gravy available. We had a very nice visit, and the price was quite decent. We would stay again.

GGuest UserThis is the best extended stay I have used. It is not new but it has several bebefits. First, it has real he tv. The tv is large and the picture is real hd, not the usual he tv but not an he signal. The internet speed is adequate, I could stream on my computer. Restaurants are within walking distance, including Mcdonalds, taco bell, Bennagins, and Perkins (which has an excellent Senior menu). The staff is friendly. Much better than the AirBB I used. Excellent stay.

SSophiaSunNZBooked an early flight and stayed at the hotel the first day. The freshman went home during the winter vacation and just turned 18. The other hotel did not allow check-in. I temporarily changed to this hotel. I called the front desk in advance and confirmed that I could stay at the age of 18. The hotel's pick-up and drop-off service is great, there are a lot of delicious food around the hotel, and you can also order takeaway to the room. The free breakfast was actually served at 3 am, the room was very clean, very close to the airport. This experience was great and will come to live next time.

GGuest UserThis was one of the worst hotels I've ever stayed at. Our first room had a ”view” of the atrium (and I use that word generously), meaning that we would need to keep the curtains closed at all times. We didn't keep that room for long though -- not after discovering more problems (no soap in the bathroom, somebody's ice packs in the refrigerator and worst of all WADDED-UP DIRTY CLOTHES IN THE DRESSER). I called the front desk about the problems and they said they would inspect another room so we could move. Thirty minutes later, our 2nd room was only slightly better. We wiped down all the surfaces with Clorox wipes and saw that the bathroom counter was especially dirty. Basic things you need in a room were absent -- we had only two hangers in the closet, and no luggage rack. Both rooms' sinks and bathtubs were dated and rusty. Someone else in our group rushed over to Wal-Mart to buy flip- flops because she didn't want her feet to touch the bathroom floor or tub. Way, way overpriced at $154/night including taxes. If we hadn't been stuck at this property because of a group reservation, we would have asked for a refund and bailed out.
