“Reasonable budget stay.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 December 2011 via mobile

person found this review helpful

I stayed here one night en route to a trade show. All the major elements worked, and it was a quiet night here.

The bed was very comfy overall. I looked at the ice machine, and it had one of those "no coolers" signs on it. Didn't need any ice, so i didn't test it. Property has elevators if you end up off the ground floor. Wifi worked without incident. The room had a nice work table and a small fridge.

One annoying thing is that all electrical outlets near the table were in use already. I had to rewire using my own equipment prior to using my computer.

“Nice place to stay.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 November 2011

We stayed at this motel during a personal trip this time, we have stayed on business before.

The room was clean, heater worked fine as well. A very nice stay at a very affordable rate. The motel is located within a short distance of the major roadways, nice selection of resteraunts and shopping.

Staff was very helpfull upon check in and check out. The free continental breakfest was not bad either. I would say this is a nice property to stay at with a very affordable rate as well. I've been satisfied both times that I have stayed at the property an see no reason we will not stay again when visiting Des Moines.

I feel this motel deserves a higher rating then it has received, especially when you take into account the location, price and decent quality of the property. It's not the ritz, but then again you are not paying for the ritz either. Good motel for the price.

Room Tip: The rooms with king size beds are a bit larger then those with a full size. We don't spend alot...

“Very nice stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 October 2011

My husband and I stayed at this hotel thursday 10/27/11 to friday morning. The employee who checked me was so very nice and professional. She made us feel very welcome. Our room was very clean and comfortable. Even while checking out the employee was so friendly asking how our stay was. I have been having to go there for pre ops and surgery coming up. It is only a few minutes away from the hospital very convenient. Thank you for making our stay so nice:)

“Value-priced property offers pleasant surprises”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 October 2011

This is a large, older three-story "motel" located in a suburb of Des Moines, just off Interstates 80 and 35. Formerly a Ramada property, this inn has experienced a partial makeover since changing to a Days Inn. The large lobby has ample seating space for the complimentary breakfast with two waffle makers and the usual spread of bagels, muffins, pastries, fruit, cereal, juice and coffee. The parking lot is well-maintained and well-lit. We have stayed here several times as the rates are often the lowest of any Des-Moines-area hotel chain listed on the Internet. The rooms are average but comfortable. Often we have reserved a double room and been upgraded to a king room at no additional charge.

Room Tip: Ask for a room on the third floor with an interior hallway. For some reason many of the first and s...

“Good, low cost option”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 September 2011

I stayed here for one night. The staff was very helpful and friendly, and even called our room a little while after check-in to make sure it was okay. The room was kind of small, but still fit a king bed, chair, desk, and fridge with no problem. I appreciated that they provided a magazine about Des Moines and area food menus in the room. Overall our room was very dated and needed a facelift, but it seemed clean. The breakfast was okay thanks to the belgian waffle maker. It would have been nice to have a few more options, but I'm not overly picky when it's free.

Dear Nyllie,

Thank you for taking the time out of your schedule to provide your comments regarding your stay at our hotel. Please know that your feedback is extremely valuable to us.

I am glad to hear that you had a wonderful stay with us. I agree with you as well, some of our rooms do need a little touch up. That is why this winter we will be remodeling the majority of our rooms to help accomodate our guest better. We will also be installing plasma screen televisions on most of the rooms.

We certainly hope to welcome you back.

Warm regards,
Abe Quito
