It was good for one night. Shower was very nice and bed was confortable. Toilet paper wasn't restocked but I was not in the room long enough to care. Loud engines from random cars in the middle of the night but that isn't the motels fault. Functional AC.

It was good for the price, clean and friendly. Don't expect extras like other motels. No microwave, refrigerator in room, no extra locks on doors, all steps. It was fine for just staying one night but wouldn't recommend if staying longer.

The owners are super nice and helpful, and definitely went out of their way to make sure we were doing okay the whole time. That being said, the room was definitely musty (it smelled a liiiiitle bit moldy) and the bathroom wasn't the cleanest I've seen in my time. Beds were clean though, and air conditioner worked great. Overall, really can't complain for a last minute motel booking. I'd stay there again in a pinch. The low area score is because it did seem like we were in sort of an odd part of Des Moines, and if you were hoping to do any tourism or walking around at night I don't think this is quite the part of the city for it. The motel itself is good though and right on a main road that can get you to other parts of the city.

Parking by room entrance door - no hallways to carry luggage down. Would have been nice to have fridge and microwave. Had a very nice walk-in shower. Good sleeping mattress.

Great room, scary outside
It was obvious that care had been spent in renovating the rooms. Great comfortable mattress, pleasing color of new paint. Decent water pressure. I hope the outside of the hotel gets fixed next. It looks run-down, and almost scary. Hosts (owners?) were truly wonderful. They had a problem with the ice machine, and offered to go get me some from the store (I declined). cons: no hangers. windows don't open because there is no screen. pros: too hot to open the window anyway. Great air conditioner. I would probably stay here again. South side of Des Moines, easy drive to everything you need.

Good cheap option but rooms are right next to busy road. I had to buy a box fan to get sleep at night.

Staff was friendly, easy check in. Rooms were so much better than I was expecting. All in all the only thing I did not like about this motel was the fact it's in an area that feels relatively unsafe. No problems with the motel itself! It was great for our night there, checked in super late but was met with no issues.

Its clean enough for a cheaper room, but very noisy, dead cockroach in lobby. Run down and dirty bed covers and doors. It looks like the rooms have recently been renovated but dont go if your not driving. There is no food or drinks close by

We booked this place but upon seeing it and the area around it, we did not feel Safe staying here. We were not able to cancel and get a refund. The area around this motel is run down and seems very unsafe.

Great value for single male traveler. Family owned and run. Very clean and well maintained. Directly on a main road so a bit noisy but it did not keep me awake. AC worked great even during 90 degree days. Would not want my wife to stay here by herself but that is because of the area, not the motel itself.
