Upon arrival, parking in site was full. We had to park in a parking garage and walk to the hotel. The room was fairly quiet except in the mornings. The cleaning crew spoke loudly in the hallways which woke us up. The hotel was within walking distance to the capital and several restaurants.

Feels like home
I always love my stays at the AC Hotel Des Moines. The staff are always friendly. I got to meet the new front desk host Heather, who was great. Tim, the shuttle driver, is always so good and so accommodating, and always asks how my mom is doing. And it was good to see Quincy again, also on shuttle duty, and Sheila at the front desk. I didn’t get a chance to see Nicholas and Peyton this trip, which is a shame b/c they always make me feel welcome and I’ve known Nicholas for probably six years. But best of all is the bar genius Trent, up at the Republic Bar on the 6th floor. I walk in after a two-month absence, and Trent smiles and says “Welcome back, an Albariño for you?” This guy knows where I live, why I’m in Des Moines, what I like to do on vacation. He knows the things we have in common and tells me stories he knows I’ll find interesting. He’s a wizard and (other than visiting Mom) the best reason to come to Des Moines. Can you tell the AC Hotel staff feel like family?

Awful stay.
-broken mini light (right side closest to window) -broken toilet paper holder (and toilet paper just sitting on back of toilet) -greasy marks on bathroom wall -no side chair in room 410, just a random end table by the lamp, but our other rented room 417 had a chair with the end table and lamp -originally given a room (419) with someone already occupied in it —keys didn’t work and had a do not disturb sign hanging from the door. -was told parking labeled guest parking only was only for employees (never been to a place where employees get better parking than paying guests) -was told there was conjoining rooms when I called a month prior to reserve (and webpage lists conjoining rooms) and asked for that or side by side rooms—given rooms on 2 different floors (419 and 519) Lady said she didn’t know what we were talking about but Franco said he could see in the “special requests” section that we did request conjoining rooms next to each other. -was told she couldn’t help us because she got off work at 3 and it was past 3 and “someone lied to you” any time I mentioned things that were promised to us -couldn’t find different rooms for us bc hotel was full (despite check in being at 3 and we arrived right at 3) and wasn’t able to move rooms around bc hotel already full (we know at exactly 3 everyone hasn’t checked in yet and we really know that wasn’t true because Franco was able to move rooms around for us) -out of characters but so much more wrong. Will be calling.
