They upgraded our room which had no AC and they were roaches when we came back in from our date night out on the bed. It was 4 of them in the covers ##### Jessica Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### kurt Aug 5, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cockroach Motel Not a place you want to stay. Might be more of an hourly stop. Perhaps long term housing. Lots of personal stuff piled up outside. a couple grills and sets of patio furniture. Pretty basic set up, I would have been just fine, until the cockroach climbed up my leg. Upon further look, I found 4 roach traps, and they all had at least 4 cockroaches in them. ##### kurt Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Anna Jul 13, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Place didn't have an air conditioner, a microwave, and a coffee machine. The refrigerator was bearly working. The bed covers were dirty and there was a dead spider on the wall. The registration was claustrophobic and dark. ##### Anna Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Mark Aug 1, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I checked reviews before I booked the motel for two night's lodging. Based on reviews, I thought how bad could it be. I took two box fans with me since indications were that the room might be hot in July. Long story short, I could not stand to be in the room let alone stay there for two nights. I should have looked at the room before I paid for it and I'd suggest nobody pay before they inspect. I wouldn't have stayed there if they'd have paid me to do it. I made a list of the environmental and facility health, life safety and security deficiencies and took pictures to support those findings. ![Bedspread looks like it was used as grease rag.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c638bd53-371e-488e-87c0-7ff3a95f2a8a-1754058247662.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Stained/filthy bathroom wall](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4047527a-ae08-4323-bbfa-f170e20f7b3d-1754058435357.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Bathroom vent/light hanging from ceiling.

It stunk of mold and mildew. Was enough to put me into an asthma attack. Didn't dare touch anything ##### Jill Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveler Sep 22, 2024 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities You get what you pay for. Smells of smoke and mildew. Roach trap in the bathroom. Be careful using the deadbolt; it might take some time and brute force to leave the room. ##### Verified traveler Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Arthur May 18, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Run away Room smelled like Mold the moment you walk in, roach traps full of roaches all over the place. Shower handle broken, stains in the pillows and sheets. I complained to the manager and received a full refund. ##### Arthur Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Steven May 27, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Don’t stay here. Completely run down place. No soap. Fraction of a roll of toilet paper with no spare. Roach trap under the sink. No knob on the shower faucet. Didn’t smell good. ##### Steven Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### David Apr 18, 2023 Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities This place is fine for short stays. I slept here one night while driving from Denver to Toronto. I got in around 9pm, grabbed some food down the street from the Burger King, slept, got up and left. The room was small, dusty, it relied on a space heater for heat, and the curtains didn't shield as much light as I desired. The Inn is located in an industrial part of town, so no street noise, but not many amenities in the area. When I got there, only one other car was in the parking lot, but when I woke up the place was mostly full; so I guess others have the same idea when booking a room at this place. At the time of this review, there is road construction, which makes the turn off slightly hard to spot. ##### David Stayed 1 night in Apr 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Aswin Aug 7, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Everything that can go wrong went wrong. The room was supposed to be non-smoking but full of smoke and nicotine stains. The entire bed and pillows were covered with disgusting stains and all sorts of bugs were crawling. The owner/front-desk staff just shrugged it. I checked out immediately and they denied any refunds. ##### Aswin ### 2/10 Terrible #### Kenneth Jul 23, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities It was an extremely small room \* advertisement says it had air conditioning. It had one vent in the general quarters that did not cool the room so the stay was hot to the point we were sweating ( if you wanted to feel the cold air you had to sit literally right next to it) \*Fridge did not work right wasn’t cold at all first thing I did when I walked in, was check for bedbugs (I did not find any) We sit down and started watching TV and little things started to pop out at me \* the skirting of the bed was stained and look like to be burned with cigarettes (this was supposed to be a non-smoking room) \* there was some sort of liquid that a drip down the wall and it had started yellowing, which usually happens with bodily fluid (Screams hasn’t been cleaned in a while) \* when the light reflected right, you can see hand prints all over the wall, which means that was some sort of residue over the wall for you to be able to see where somebody and put their hands \* Cobwebs were all around the room \* furniture was beat the hell, and or broken There are too many issues to list in this review ##### Kenneth Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Thomas May 15, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities My son was graduating from Iowa State and I booked a room for one night in AMes long before the graduation. Plans changed and I needed to stay a couple more nights. By the time I looked for rooms in AMes for the weekend, everything started at $500 a night. I expaned my search down to Des Moines. I was looking for something cheap. I figured all I needed was a bed and a shower. I found this Palace Inn for $70 a night and thought what the heck. I booked two nights. When I got there the road in front of the place was closed and there was routed over the the other side of the road. There was a gravel path open to get to the property. No big deal. The place looked run down. When I got out of the care and walked up to the entrance, it reeked of cigarette smoke before you even got inside. I went into the "lobby". It was the room the size of a closet. There was a small plexiglass window over a little counter with a hole in the bottom of the window. I couldn't see anyone behind the glass. I heard a voice say " can I help you?" I said "I have a reservation". What's the name?" I told him my name. I didn't hear anything for a while. I said "don't you have the reservation?" "Oh I got you". " ID and credit card". I slipped my license and credit card through the hole in the window. I got the key. "Number 7\. Pull around behind the snow plow." The room also reeked of smoke. Beds were fine. Shower was hot. Wi Fi worked. It was quiet. Not the cleanest. For $70 it was OK. ##### Thomas Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Laurie May 31, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Kind of a little dive. Bugs in the drawers and smelled of cigarettes. Just layed on top of covers ##### Laurie Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveler Aug 3, 2021 #### Sketchy, at best Definitely a back-alley hotel. Spend the extra $10 to stay somewhere else.. Not worth $60 a night. ##### Verified traveler Stayed 1 night in Jul 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### Brandon Jun 10, 2021 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Avoid. Dirty, run down, out of date, and disorganized. ##### Brandon Stayed 1 night in Jun 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveler Oct 15, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Comfortable enough for thecost Not sure why it had an 8 rating. Although it was clean, it is very old, didn't provide shampoo, and the internet didn't work. They also had no record of my reservation. However, it was clean and comfortable enough for the cost. ##### Verified traveler Stayed 1 night in Oct 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveler May 19, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Perfect night sleep. Clean room and large bathroom ##### Verified traveler Stayed 1 night in May 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### marlon Jun 24, 2018 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### You get why you pay for The hotel is old in a area with nothing around. No one was there when I checked out. No air conditioner was in Our room. Checked in at 10 pm left at 9 am good for that but not for a long term sty ##### marlon Stayed 1 night in Jun 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveler Jul 25, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Bad wish I could have found another hotel Wish I could have found another hotel and got my money back, the room smelled, the bed and pillows were hard and the front desk called on my check out day at 10 a. M. And said to have 1 hour to get out! Never again! ##### Verified traveler Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### K, iowa Jun 8, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Roadside dump Poor quality with no amenities. Nonsmoking room reeked of stale cigarettes ##### K Stayed 1 night in Jun 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveler May 23, 2017 Disliked: Room comfort #### Palace Inn Des Moines Hotel room very outdated....shower head was old and I needed to do a backbend to get hair wet. Room smelled a little musty when we checked in. We had to make a hasty departure though, due to sewage smell in the room. Seemed to get worse after we used the shower. Quiet area, we got good sleep. I can see why it was rated only 2.6 out of 5...you usually get what you pay for, but in this case $78.00 for the smell of sewage is waaaay too much for my taste. ##### Verified traveler ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - [Lodging](?equalTargetTab=tab-0) - [Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham Des Moines Airport](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Days-Inn-Suites-By-Wyndham-Des-Moines-Airport.h49826.Hotel-Information) - [Baymont by Wyndham Des Moines Airport](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Baymont-By-Wyndham-Des-Moines-Airport.h473122.Hotel-Information) - [Comfort Inn & Suites Event Center](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Comfort-Inn-Suites-Event-Center.h8217.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel Julien Dubuque](https://www.expedia.com/Dubuque-Hotels-Hotel-Julien-Dubuque.h2239834.Hotel-Information) - [Embassy Suites Hotel Des Moines Downtown](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Embassy-Suites-Hotel-Des-Moines-Downtown.h10622.Hotel-Information) - [Des Lux Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Des-Lux-Hotel.h9781455.Hotel-Information) - [Drury Inn & Suites Iowa City Coralville](https://www.expedia.com/Coralville-Hotels-Drury-Inn-Suites-Iowa-City-Coralville.h27725039.Hotel-Information) - [Sonesta Essential Des Moines](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Econo-Lodge-Inn-Suites-Des-MoinesMerle-Hays-Road.h50789.Hotel-Information) - [Quality Inn & Suites Des Moines - Merle Hay Road](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Quality-Inn-Suites.h9664.Hotel-Information) - [Ac Hotel Des Moines East Village](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-AC-Hotel-Des-Moines-East-Village.h16525760.Hotel-Information) - [Holiday Inn Downtown - Mercy Area by IHG](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Downtown-Mercy-Area.h18835.Hotel-Information) - [Des Moines Marriott Downtown](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Des-Moines-Marriott-Downtown.h16933.Hotel-Information) - [Renaissance Des Moines Savery Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Renaissance-Des-Moines-Savery-Hotel.h10733.Hotel-Information) - [Econo Lodge Inn & Suites Fairgrounds](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Econo-Lodge-Inn-Suites-Fairgrounds.h1705827.Hotel-Information) - [Clarion Inn Des Moines Airport](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Ramada-By-Wyndham-Des-Moines-Airport.h790014.Hotel-Information) - [Holiday Inn Des Moines-Airport/Conf Center by IHG](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Des-Moines-AirportConf-Center.h18162.Hotel-Information) - [Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Des Moines Downtown](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Fairfield-Inn-Suites-By-Marriott-Des-Moines-Downtown.h36938080.Hotel-Information) - [Surety Hotel, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Surety-Hotel.h44914120.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel Fort Des Moines, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Hotel-Fort-Des-Moines.h9375.Hotel-Information) - [Quality Inn & Suites Des Moines Airport](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Quality-Inn-Suites-Des-Moines-Airport.h17922.Hotel-Information) - [Hampton Inn & Suites Des Moines Downtown](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Suites-Des-Moines-Downtown.h7897548.Hotel-Information) - [Hilton Des Moines Downtown](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Hilton-Des-Moines-Downtown.h21321542.Hotel-Information) - [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Des Moines Downtown by IHG](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Des-Moines-Downtown.h12756236.Hotel-Information) - [Hyatt Place Des Moines/Downtown](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Des-Moines-Downtwn.h3972152.Hotel-Information) - [Staybridge Suites Des Moines Downtown by IHG](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Staybridge-Suites-Des-Moines-Downtown.h13300681.Hotel-Information) - [Americinn by Wyndham Des Moines Airport](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-AmericInn-By-Wyndham-Des-Moines-Airport.h855969.Hotel-Information) - [Holiday Inn Dubuque/Galena by IHG](https://www.expedia.com/Dubuque-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-DubuqueGalena.h13327.Hotel-Information) - [Residence Inn Des Moines Downtown](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Residence-Inn-Des-Moines-Downtown.h6468142.Hotel-Information) - [Hampton Inn Des Moines-Airport](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Des-Moines-Airport.h17394.Hotel-Information) - [Home2 Suites by Hilton Des Moines at Drake University](https://www.expedia.com/Des-Moines-Hotels-Home2-Suites-By-Hilton-Des-Moines-At-Drake-University.h48251406.Hotel-Information)
