I know it was very cheap, there could be plastic or foam drinking glasses in the room. The room smelled horribly of cigarette smoke. The poor desk clerk was embarrassed for not being at the desk when we arrived. He was taking out the trash. You need to hire more help.

The motel is old, but that's no excuse for how dirty the location is. The bedding was horribly stained, mold in the bathroom, broken chair, breakfast was a crockpot full of sausage, old cereal, white bread for toast and make-your-own-waffles with an incredibly dirty waffle maker. The place smelled of vomit and weed. Staff was nice and all this is beyond them. Wyndham, do better.

I wouldnt know how the room was. I booked the room last minute while traveling. When i got there hours later i wasnt able to check in. According to expedia, if you book through them you have to have a certain amount on your card for a hold. That was not noted during checkout. So my two kids and i slept in the car, because the manager would not help.

Terrible in every way
The worst hotel stay I’ve ever had. 40 minutes at reception before someone showed up to check me in, then when I got to the room it had broken furniture, the bathroom light was broken, and tv remote was hidden somewhere (later found by housekeeping). The room was noisy whenever other rooms turned on their water, and I woke up to bites all over me (presumably bed bugs). I wouldn’t stay here again or use this chain again on the same basis.

Barely lit bathroom

For the price , we got pretty much what we paid for. Both bed spreads were stained…and one was torn. There were NO cups or glasses in the room. One wash cloth, one hand towel. Two bath towels. No Kleenex. One vending machine was not working. No sign to let you know.

The shower didn't work. The whole place needed repainted. The tv didn't work. The breakfast consisted only of breads, cereal and waffles. There was no fruit, juice, yogurt, eggs or protein. The staff complained about the owner and how cheap he was.

Would give it negative stars if I could
Do not stay here. The entire hotel is dirty and outdated, and our room was gross. When we first walked into the room, it smelled musty but the AC was really low so we thought maybe it was just humid while we waited for the AC to kick in. There were multiple burn holes in the comforter and a black stain on the sheets. The shower and sink were rusty and crusty. We didn't spend much time in our room thankfully but when we came back to the room it smelled like pee. My husband ended up smelling around and deciding someone likely peed inside the AC unit. The rest of the hotel was gross so we didn't bother asking for a new room, we just spend that night with the window open and AC off. At checkout (a Sunday at 9:45 am) I was going to inform staff of the issues we had but no one was at the desk so we dropped our keys and left. Whoever is running the hotel obviously pockets the money made and doesn't put a cent back into the place so it's a dump. We brought our suits and wanted to swim but didn't want to risk a skin infection. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.

Won't stay again.
Room was clean, but very old. Blankets and carpet stained and worn out. No facial tissues, no water cups, no refrigerator, VERY small pillows. It is inexpensive but I will pay more to stay elsewhere on my next visit to Des Moines. The breakfast consisted of cereal or a waffle. No hot water or tea at all. Front desk was not helpful at all. They just said wait until the next morning to talk to a manager!

My stay was just to arrive at night and sleep, but there were some very noisy guests. They woke me up twice at 2 am and 3 am. In the almost 4 days I was there, my room was never cleaned. Not even a change of towels. I had to demand dry and clean towels.
