Staff was welcoming and friendly. Our room had an odd smell and the walk in shower allowed water to puddle just outside the shower so the bathroom floor was pretty wet.

Great property. Staff was helpful and friendly. Very convenient location to food and entertainment, and also great location to drive into Des Moines. My only complaint is the bathroom. The bathroom had no fan for ventilation which was very inconvenient. Great place to stay will stay here again

Stay at the AmericInn
Our experience was not good. We were supposed to be there for one night and did not even stay the night because of how uncomfortable it was. We came into the room and found dirty sheets, smelly towels, the room smelled of mildew, dust particles hanging from the ceiling, and the headboard being smeared with what looked like grease. The shower was not clean and neither was the shower curtain. We had asked for new sheets which we had got, but we were still uncomfortable staying in the conditions of our room. We will not be staying here again.

Hotels.com lies directly to me
There were issues with reservation between hotels.com and the property. Both entities lied to me about changes I made before deadline for changes. I have never had such awful customer service and do not recommend using hotels.com ever again.

Not the cleanest place we have ever stayed. Our tv did not work the entire stay. The front desk was alerted right away and their answer was point the remote at the lamp. What?? We asked house keeping to give us clean towels and take out the trash. We got fresh towels , but they didn’t not remove the trash which had piled up as we were traveling with children. The hotel was fine for what we paid, but I am not sure we would return.

Not best experience, but not the worst. What I did not like the most was the breakfast. VERY little to choose from!!! Then, the warmers are turned down so low, the food was luke warm! The coffee was just one pump server and not even in the breakfast area! The sign in the room said if you were staying more than 1 night (we stayed 3) that the bed linens would only be changed every 3 days. But, they never even came into the room to clean or just make the bed!!!! Not at all impressed by this hotel!
