Stay some place else!!!!

This stay was horrible, got to my room and the door was open. I stay for a single night, upon leaving I untuck covers from the side I didn’t sleep on only to discover what looks like a blood stain on the duvet. One of the towels was dirty or possible stained. I mentioned it to check out and he said we will look into it.

I was good. I just needed a location in Des Moines/ Ankeny from which to run a couple of errands. It served the purpose. A clean room, a good bed, wifi and pet friendly is all I require.

Room was okay. TV was decent sized for a hotel - so that was a nice perk. Sink was small. Bathroom was...small. Bed was comfortable enough. The floor is vinyl or something similar - so seems cold. The parking lot lights were pretty bright. But the room blackout blinds do work. Overall, a decent value. 1 complaint. No protein options at breakfast.
