This is an older motel with a new facade on the front entrance and the rooms have been recently renovated. Unfortunately the walls are thin and can hear EVERYTHING in the next room through the connecting door. One bonus is the morning breakfast which is at the connecting diner with made to order meals, good portions, and fast service. #1 option was two eggs, hash browns, and toast.

The hotel was decent, the bed was made, sheets clean. There is no elevator and my room did not have black out curtains so it was a rough morning getting woken up early by the sun coming in the window.

Our room was clean, hotel was quiet, staff was extremely friendly & accommodating. The diner on site had great service & the food was delicious! We did have to switch rooms on our last night due to a major leak in the ceiling, but were reimbursed for our trouble. Would definitely stay here again!

Maybe a two star hotel. Stains in the carpet. Even the attached Ankeny Diner food was poor. AC unit in the room was loud and you couldn’t really control when it would run or not. Windows were half sized and we looked into the roof if you were tall enough to see out the window. Would definitely spend more to stay elsewhere

Check in went well. The room was spacious, but the smell wasn't good. TV, fridge, and microwave worked well. The bed was somewhat uncomfortable and the pillowcases on the larger pillows were too small. The bathroom and the ceilings could use some updating. A pipe under the sink leaked a little. Breakfast was good, and the staff in the dining area was very friendly. The ice maker nearest the room did not work. The children had a blast in the pool area!
