Hampton Inn Des Moines-Airport

10/10 Excellent
"The room was nice , clean and comfortable. The shower was great. The staff was friendly. Only complaint is the air conditioning and refrigerator were not as cold as I would have liked. Even turned the air way down where the room should have been freezing but it was not."
