We came up to watch a football game at Drake with little kids and had a great stay! The ice cream shop around the corner is NOT to miss! Huge breakfast in the morning. Highly recommend.

We stayed at Home2 Suites Des Moines at Drake University in June 2025 for freshman orientation. I was blown away at how clean, spacious and helpful the amazing staff was. As someone who is extremely chemical sensitive, it was wonderful to walk into a room and not have chemical smells, perfume or odors. Hotels that choose to use scents in their cleaning products and in their hotel have stopped me from traveling. This was such a relief to not have any of that and be able to focus on our son and his college orientation. The kitchen was fully equipped as well. I travel with my own food and it's awesome to have a full-size refrigerator to store my food and not some tiny dorm fridge. Sink, microwave, dishes etc. all available for use. Andrea at the front desk was wonderful from greeting, check in and answering all of our questions. She was welcoming, kind, professional and such a pleasure to speak with. She is truly a treasure to have as an employee. We had a fantastic 2 day stay and will be returning for many more stays.

We have stayed at this Home2 Suites at Drake many times for football games. We are Drake football parents and have stayed numerous times over the last 4 years. Great rooms, coffee, breakfast and gym. It’s close to everything. Andrea is TERRIFIC! She always remembered me and was so helpful at the front desk and during the breakfast rush. We will miss staying here. !
