Overall this place was pretty good. Floors are really creepy tho so you'll here everyone's movement including your neighbors but overall I couldn't complain
Very nice hotel. Looked like it was recently updated. Very clean and modern. Felt very safe. Front desk was super friendly. And was really quiet. Would definitely stay again.
I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the door to my room, quaint, just remodeled, very clean with a wonderful heater/ac unit and clean fridge. No hair blow dryer, glad I brought mine, but overall, 5 STARS the price was right too!
Very clean quiet and love the staff especially the front desk gentlman sian

The bathroom door lock was broken. The front door was difficult to lock. The bathroom did not have hotel shampoo.
On a good note, the room was clean and the bed was comfortable.
GREAT STAFF. Fun to see the same staff for our monthly visit. Good value for the price and a great location. Our go to motel when we travel to the Des Moines area.
