This was a short notice trip, so I had to find a cheaper place than what I usually book. This fit the bill perfectly. I had stayed at this particular Motel 6 once before approximately two years ago, and they have redone the rooms. They are much nicer than my previous trip. No carpet, which was great for having pets,... More

DO NOT stay here if you are whiney, picky and like being pampered. Do stay here if you simply need to pull off the Interstate, sleep and get back into your car and leave. We have found the perfect place to stay at an incredible price. ($41) Our daughter goes to the University of Minnesota and we find that by... More

This place was basically OK, your average Motel 6. It did not have very good soudproofing, though. Also, the directions in the Motel 6 book on how to get here were simply wrong.

My husband and I needed a cheap room for one night to get some sleep before the Des Moines Marathon. We enjoyed watching football on the flat screen tv (network tv was in HD...cool!) and got lots of shut eye.

Towels are thin, no... More

My husband is recovering from... More

We had a wonderful stay during the Iowa State Fair at the Motel 6. Nice clean rooms with a wide selection of cable channels. 32" LCD TV was great for my kids to play their playstation games. Pool was very enjoyable

I was passing through on a business trip, and looked for a hotel on a budget. I stayed at this motel 6, and was very satisfied. The room was very clean, the staff was helpful, the room was quiet and parking was abundant. I would absolutely stay again, if I ever came back to Iowa.

My husband and I were passing through Des Moines on a 3-week road trip to the west and stayed at the Des Moines North Motel 6. I was pleasantly surprised. This was the first Motel 6 I've ever stayed at, and since the reviews were positive, I wasn't a bit nervous about staying here. The motel has been remodeled, and... More
