Came to town for a quick overnight anniversary night out. Couldn’t have asked for a cleaner hotel and accommodations. We will definitely stay again

Disliked: Amenities
Room seemed clean but had incomplete inspection. Thermostat did not work. Set on 60 & we were hot. Previous occupant left drinks in fridge & belt draped over chair. Could not set temp on fridge either (not chilled).no shampoo Partial roll of TP & no extra. Breakfast was good.
This hotel is located in a quiet and safe area. The staff is very friendly. The breakfast has good options and they kept it well stocked. I would definitely recommend this hotel.
Todo está bien en la propiedad el desayuno las camas la única inconveniencia que tuve fue con la persona que me hizo el check in que dijo un comentario racista hacia mi que no me entendía mi inglés pero si entienden para cobrar cuando yo le pregunté su nombre después por qué le dije que iba hacer una review cambió su manera de hablar con migo ese fue mi único inconveniente un consejo si no pueden hacer su trabajo del en la oportunidad a otra persona que pueda hacer su trabajo
I booked this hotel in short notice because we had a training in the Ankeny area and we were traveling during bad weather. Due to the bad weather we were not going to be able to make it to Ankeny. I contacted Expedia to see if the hotel would be nice enough to refund our money because we couldn't make it and I did not do the trip insurance. The hotel declined to give our money back. I know some of this is on me but due to the circumstances I just don't know how people don't have the heart to help people out. If I own this business there's no way I would feel good about laying my head down at night knowing the fact I just screwed somebody.
