Perfect if you're going to the airport.
Pros:

The location near the airport and a steakhouse within walking distance was great. I really liked the park and stay, option. It was cheaper to pay that and leave my vehicle at the hotel than to use airport parking. And their shuttle picked me up and dropped me off.

Cons:

I had recently stayed at a cheaper but nicer hotel in Kansas City, so I was slightly disappointed by the room at this hotel. It was fine - clean and adequate, and the staff here were very nice.

Pros:

The included airport shuttle system is a HUGE plus, all we had to when we landed in the Des Moines airport was talk with the concierge, we were given contact information, and the shuttle was already at the airport.
Excellent location and the driver was very sweet.

Cons:

No complaints 😊
