Very uncomfortable. Took pics of room camera didn't use flash.
Pros:

The room was fairly clean. The location worked out for the purpose of my visit to DesMoines.

Cons:

My meetings were over that having to stay another night was not necessary (booked room for 3 nights). The meeting ended a day early. They would not refund me for my room. The flagpole lighted was shining directly into my room. Mentioned to management with no response. I have been a customer of Hilton for many years with a Hilton Honors account. I will never stay in any of their facilities again and inform as many people as possible of their disinterest.
