Frustrating due to schedules at airport

It was very good except was trying to get a flight out of Des Moines and that has been terrible. That is no fault of the motel.

This is not a honeymoon suite or a summer vacation rental. This is a "stop driving/working and get your head down for a decent night's sleep" kinda place, before getting up and carrying on with your journey/labour somewhat rested. It is priced accordingly. I watched staff work hard at keeping it clean.
