We were just traveling I-80. Stopped very late at night/early morning. Desk clerk was nice but was sleepy as I was. Tried to run my BW Rewards card as my credit card so was a little confusing check-in with both of us half asleep. No matter the room was comfortable and clean. Got the last of breakfast since we arrived... More

My family stayed at Best Western over the weekend 5/12 for two nights. Room seemed kind of cramped. There are two chairs, a fairly good size table, microwave, refrigerator, flat screen, so everything that is needed for a hotel room. They also had cookies and popcorn each evening from 5-7 so my kids were loving that. Unfortunately, the big groups... More

Comfortable room for a five-night stay - nice beds and choice of pillows. Breakfast fine but breakfast area a little small for the number of guests - even on a weekday. All staff members were very friendly and helpful.

We knew we would not be spending a lot of time at our hotel, so we were looking for a basic room in a hotel with a pool. The room was clean and met our needs for the weekend. The room was a bit small with a lot of furniture, which was difficult with a small child. The pool is... More

We stayed here with another couple for a "grown up" weekend without the kids. Our main intention was to go to Adventureland, and I wanted a hotel close-by. This hotel is on the back side of the amusement park, but it's a short enough walk around to the front gate of the park. The front desk staff was friendly, but... More

This Best Western seems to be relatively new. It is directly across the street from Adventureland, which is it's only asset. The rooms are extremely small, housing two beds, a table & 2 chairs, an armoire, and a cabinet for the fridge and microwave. The bathroom houses the toilet, sink, and tub. For a family of four, there is very... More

We chose this hotel primarily for its location. We wanted to be able to walk to adventureland and have a hotel room as a convenient rest break when needed. We could easily walk across the street and parking lot to the main gate. Our room had 2 comfortable queen beds. The size of the rooms are not overly big...just a... More

The Best Western, Altoona, Ia, was a great place to stay. We were there for a girls weekend. We booked the large room and it was worth it. Upon arrival we were greeted with cookies and popcorn. The room was clean and had plenty of room for all of us and our stuff. We were able to take a shuttle... More

My other half and I took a long road trip across the Midwest from Colorado to Indiana. We planned our trip around places we wanted to explore, and Des Moines was one of the cities on our list. We looked up the Best Western Inns in the surrounding area and noticed this one, which was new to the Best Western... More
