The property and staff were average which I expected. The desk clerk asked me three times if I had a pet which I didn’t??? Room was clean but average. Breakfast was subpar. Feel like I paid too much for the stay

Clean, comfortable and location was good. Booked through Expedia, but when I called directly to the Hotel to ask to reduce our stay by one night, I was put off by staff / owners and told they could do nothing for me, and since I booked through Expedia, would have to deal with them about it. Expedia was great, and got our reservation fixed, but had to call the Hotel directly to do this. I feel like the hotel could have fixed this from my call to them.

Friendly staff...cleaning needs improved
The room worked for what we need and rhe staff was very nice. The room walls werent clean nor were the hallway walls cleaned. I found some type of stain on the wall in the room and i cleaned it up.m but for the life of me; I cant figure out how they didnt see when cleaning the room. The main hallway on the first floor has similar stains and just plain gross. Up on the 3rd floor there was a something hanging from the stairwell ceiling on the northside. Looked like a possible wasp nest instead. Didnt hang around to get a picture. Other than that....friendly staff...rooms and inside of the building could use some work

This was actually my favorite motel over our 3-week road trip. I didn’t realize there was no fridge/microwave, but we had an ice chest. The bed was comfortable, I loved the window seat for morning coffee, it was clean, and quiet on our floor. The lobby had a really strong smell of pot. There were 2 people in the lobby waiting area but it might have been related to guests on ground floor. The check-in clerk's name was Happy and he was so awesome. He was helpful, cheerful, and had great suggestions for dinner as well as places to stop along I80 as we travel west. The room was smaller but it didn’t really feel too cramped. It was warm and inviting. Great experience.

The room isn’t as clean as you see in the photo. The room carpet is dirty, bathroom is dirty. There was a couple dead bug in our bathtub. There was a stain on our bedsheet. I understand for the price we can’t expect it to be a 3-5 star but overall it’s just really dirty and I was concern for my new born baby.

The property was beat up quite a bit They did not service room at all and we only had 1/2 a roll of toilet paper and 2 towels provided for 4 of us The bathroom door wouldn’t close, the room was full of dents and paint missing on walls The breakfast was awful and area dirty and not serviced. The front desk was not helpful at all. We were there 4 nights and had to leave a day early and they would not even accommodate and cancel the 4th night for us We won’t be coming back. There are many other hotels in Des Moine area to choose from
