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

The place smelled musty. The pool tile was dirty and the pool was cold. Looks like it was renovated recently, but poorly done. There were no extra pillows available and they were out of pool towels.

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!

There was cob webs on my light fixtures. Stains on my mattress protector. By the pool the vents are thick with black mold or lint not sure but not cleaned and concerned what the kids were breathing. They say there is breakfast but they give you a voucher to go to the deli next door and then one of their workers had no idea how the voucher worked and tried to charge me to the point I was not going to do this everyday. I think the folks who run the place are sweet but wyndham clearly slapped their name on it and did some renovations but truly skipped the basics.

We stayed in a hot tub room and it was by far the best hot tub/whirlpool private room I have ever stayed in. The heart shaped tub was huge and the Jets had a lot of pressure. Only downfall was it took forever to fill up and it blew cold air from the Jets, which cooled the hot tub faster, but we will definitely stay in again. They need to also vent the whirlpool rooms because there is mold growing above it on the ceiling and all the floors get slick in the room from the condensation. The free breakfast at the restaurant was awesome and the service was great. All employees were very kind. Beds were comfortable. I really enjoyed our stay. I highly recommend it.

The pool was freezing. I was having a bday party for my 6 year old we had family surprise us and show up to visit and the guy at the desk said that my visitors had to leave in 15 minutes or I would have to leave. They were going to just go ahead and stay there also but not after that I checked out a day early. The pool was freezing the kids couldn't even stand it.

The room was clean, but the fit and finish of all the tub area and the bathroom was very poorly done. Plus the toilet was loose from the floor. The shower control valve handle came off in our hand. The TV remote wouldn’t work unless you were standing right close to the TV. The barn door going into the bathroom wouldn’t hardly open far enough to get in the bathroom. Other than that it was pretty nice. Ironing board cover look like it had mold in one end of it.
