Find Hotels with a Pool in Central Iowa, IA

"The staff was helpful and kind. Checking in was easy. The room was clean and comfortable. Location was also convenient and there was plenty of parking, which made parking a single car hauler easy. I'll definitely consider staying here again if the price is right. "

"Breakfast was the same 2 days in a row, would have been nice to vary sausage and bacon. Perhaps some danish or donuts for variety. They were having trouble with the elevators and had to use the stairs one day of our 2 day stay. Very nice staff and the room was very clean. We like all Drury’s throughout the US. Wish they had more!"

"Everything was great. The bathroom door wouldn't shut. So we put a wash cloth in between. The person upstairs had heavy feet. But other than that. Great. "

"Pros: The beds were wonderful, soft and comfortable. Location was great, easy access to the highway and very quiet. Bathroom fixtures, especially, looked new. Cons: We were told upon our evening arrival that the elevators didn’t work, and so we would have to carry our luggage upstairs. We are seniors with disabilities, so that was not good news. They couldn’t switch us to a first-floor room because we had booked through Expedia, but we could get our money back and go somewhere else. After traveling all day, we weren’t up to trying to find another hotel, so we made the 2 or 3 trips up the stairs. The desk clerk came off as rude, although I don’t think he meant to be. The tv turned itself off at midnight and would not come back on. Not sure if this is a hotel setting to keep it quiet at night, but for travelers trying to keep tabs on dangerous weather patterns, it was inconvenient. We didn’t eat the breakfast, but it looked like the usual fare. Overall, though, we would stay here again, mostly because a truly comfortable bed is hard to find while traveling, and, hopefully, they’ll get their elevators fixed or hire a temporary bell hop."

"Always the best choice downtown! "

"So fun !"

"Great location and wonderful staff"

"The front desk staff was very friendly every time I had to visit the desk. The room was clean. The pool was perfect for my little granddaughter. The hot tub was one of the hottest I have ever been in. The pool was a good temperature as some hotel pools are a little colder than I prefer. The pool area might have needed some new atmosphere as at one time it might have had more plants and decor but now just a few average looking tropical plants and some furniture that maybe needed a good sanding and cleaned up a bit but still had lots of life in them. The beds and bedding were comfortable. The location was easy enough to get to but the signage for check in might need to be better marked. The very first time we stayed at The Gateway we drove around several times before we found a check in area under a canopy or underpass looking area that we thought might have been an entrance to a parking garage and while we where here we noticed another vehicle doing the same thing. But after our first day we found another entrance on the other side of the building where you park that was much easier to use and closer to the elevators. It also has nice little short walking path if you just want to be outside. The patio area did not have any furniture outside at the time we were there in early May except for 2 plastic chairs but there was a nice little waterfall back there. Aside from no continental breakfast, I would say this hotel marked every box we look for in a hotel."

"Hyatt Place is always a desirable hotel for me when I travel. Clean comfortable rooms. Great amenities. The breakfast is always really good, too."
