2/10 Poor

Our stay was not great. The room smelled of a moldy washer. The first room I was in had dog pee in various spots on the floor. The bed may or may not have been made with fresh sheets. There was trash already in the trash can. We did request a new room second room had brown ring that was not wiped on bathroom counter. Mold starting to grow in spots on the wall and in between the cracks of the headboard. Both rooms had moldy bathroom ceilings. All around bummed about the whole experience and wish I could get my money back and I would have slept in my car. I do have photos but this won’t let me add the photos for some glitch reason.

Meh?
The door to the room was very hard to open. Almost felt like we had to break it down to get in. And then force it shut. The rooms and halls smelled of mildew. But it wasn’t bad for us just needing a place to sleep on our drive

2/10 Poor

Not clean
A non-smoking room can’t smelll like smoke. The shower drain was clogged and the tub filled with water. Overall the cleanliness of the room was less than desirable.

An older facility, but clean. Convenient next to a major interstate exit and on major thoroughfare into Des Moines. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Front desk staff talked super quiet, could barely hear what they were saying. Lots of odd folks walking around, not sure if they were staying at the hotel or not. Housekeeping left a dirty rag in the room.
