Bed was comfortable. The entire hotel needs a good cleaning and updated decor. No air conditioning in the hallways. Not much for on site dining, although breakfast is included (standard fare). Friendly staff!

The property has a good feel and I think it could be amazing. However, many things need to be updated. From the carpet in the hallways to the furniture in the rooms. My room had a musty smell in it. The staff were great to work with…5 stars for them!!

Cabin not in the woods

This place is amazing. I’ve never stayed in a place quite like this. I got one of the cottage themed rooms and it was amazing. It was extremely comfortable (except for the pillows but it’s rare to get good pillows in a hotel). It was so spacious it felt like the room kept going. The room I booked had a fireplace which helped my wife stay warm even though I was hot and she was cold. The shower had good room and pressure. The woman who checked me in was very friendly and informative. I don’t know if I’ll ever go back to Des Moines but if I do I’m staying here no questions ask. In fact I’m going to find out if Stoney Creek has other places. I loved this place.

My kids loved the hotel. Lots of options for big families. The property is dated and desperately needs a face-lift, but it's clean and the rooms are comfortable.

Location is great. This place needs a little love. It was pretty clean. Has an inside/ outside pool and a hot tub. Pool is not heated. Pets are welcome and I didn't hear any noise. A few restaurants were within walking distance.

Great place

We have stayed at Stoney Creek many times over the years we love the rooms they’re always clean. The only thing I would say is we got a room with a fireplace and it wound up not working other than that which is just a maintenance issue great place to stay

Staff is good, very hospitable. 2nd and 3rd look great. Great conference rooms, but man the lower level and pool area need serious remodeling. Tape holding the wallpaper on, carpet not being held down anymore, and horribly humid down there. It does not smell the greatest.
