This was a lovely hotel, very close to the Skywalk, which is an amazing walking network, connecting much of the downtown area - safe, secure, and climate controlled. I was in a tournament at the Iowa Events Center and it was an easy 15 minute walk - no car, no hassle! The staff were friendly and helpful. Des Moines has a lot of construction going on.

Best place to stay in Iowa!

We came for the Senior Olympics and had three hotel rooms at the Surety. Each one was fantastic and super clean and comfortable with ice cold air conditioning! The rooms were very well kept and appointed. Beds were super comfortable and the shower/bathroom had nice toiletries. The lobby was where it was at though! It had a wonderful little coffee shop and pastries place. A wonderful restaurant we ate at 3 times! And my kids loved the pool table and hung out there a lot! The best part though was the wonderful hotel manager who knew my name and gave me a shout out every time I saw her! She was amazing. She was a truly wonderful person and had the biggest heart! It was like you were staying at a family member’s place! She was that warm and friendly. You will not be disappointed. There are a ton of great restaurants as well within walking distance, plenty to eat, see and do! Loved Iowa!

Great, stylish property in a central downtown neighborhood. Comfortable, well-designed & appointed rooms. Excellent restaurant/bar on site. Hotel’s reception is found in a spacious lounge-bar area that doubles as a workspace & comfy social gathering spot during the day. Plenty of street (metered) parking available in addition to paid lots. Close to perfect…wish I could have stayed longer!
