The hotel lobby was clean and bright, the desk people were friendly and proficient, the room had a distinct odor like dirty carpets, we only stayed one night so it met our needs at the time, probably wouldn't stay there again.

Verified review

6/10 Good

We dropped something behind the dresser and when we pulled it out, it was really dirty. The wall of the show had dark spots in the grout -- thinking it might be mold. The person who was at the desk when we got there charged our credit card $101.00, even though we had paid through Hotels.com. The beds were good and the breakfast was delicious - getting to eat at the Ankeny Diner for the breakfast was great.

6/10 Good

Room wasn’t swept so probably not mopped either, hallway carpets were really gross and the hall had an unpleasant odor. The staff wasn’t super friendly but were helpful when asked. The pool was really nice and the best part of the place. I’d stay again in a pinch but for 200 bucks a night and a bit of a drive to Des Moines proper, I’d expect a bit more effort with cleaning and amenities.

No towels at the pool. had to go ask for them and then it was a small pretty useless one. AC was great and the beds were very good. Not worth $200 a night. Several other hotels are in the neighborhood go stay there. I have ever stayed in many Wyndham hotels this is at the bottom of them. I will not stay here in the future.

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!
Verified review

2/10 Poor

We stayed here 11 months to the weekend before this trip and it was a wonderful experience. This trip was the complete opposite. There was a family running the hotel that was always present in the lobby when I took my dog out. Every singe time I walked through the lobby, at least one of them would cringe and recoil because I had a dog. Anytime I walked through on my own, they were friendly. He stayed with us the last time we did, and the last person running the front desk loved him, and there was no family lurking around making everyone uncomfortable. The room was comfortable, but barely held together. One of the lamps was suspended from the ceiling not very safely with a board over the cord to hold it in place. It also emitted enough heat to tan under, so we worried about even using it. In one of the rooms as you enter the pool, there's a torn up box spring blocking the doorway. The storage rooms are all full of junk and garbage and they keep all of the doors open so it just spills out into the hallway sometimes. We also asked for a poolside room like we had last time for the kids, and we were put on the second floor. As we were checking out, we were loading the car in front of the lobby, and the guy working the front desk stood in the automatic doorway and just mean mugged us, like we were criminals. Will not be staying here again.

Our group has been staying here for years. Have seen SO many improvements! All the staff, especially the front desk fellows wereamazing!here
Verified review

6/10 Good

The price was very reasonable, and one of the biggest positives was that we were able to get a room with three beds, which is surprisingly difficult to find. The room itself had been updated, and the A/C worked very well and kept the room nice and cold. The lobby staff were also friendly and welcoming. That said, the hotel felt more like a 2-star property than a 3-star hotel. The shower did not work properly, which was frustrating. Even more concerning, when we pulled back the covers we discovered dirty socks in one of the beds that did not belong to us. That made us question how thoroughly the room had been cleaned. There was also an exterior door at the opposite end of the building from the lobby with a broken lock that could not be secured, which was concerning from a safety standpoint. Overall, the reasonable price and availability of a three-bed room were major positives, and the room had some nice updates. However, the cleanliness issue, broken shower, and unsecured exterior door were significant enough that I would have expected better from a 3-star hotel.

Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

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.
