Ankeny Vacations from $364

The room was clean and the air and shower worked very well. The check in took a while we arrived late and no one was at the desk. The number we called didn't transfer to the on call person. They finally showed up and got us in.

The staff was great and the breakfast was good!!!

The room was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. However, there were things that lacked attention. 1). Take your own hand soap because the bar at the sink was like pumis—didn’t lather, was grainy, and severely dried the skin. 2). There were a few apples and a few extremely soft, aged tangerines on Saturday morning. On Sunday and orange and an apple were there. 3). There was no ice Saturday morning. 4). The so-called body wash in the tub was very watered down. 5). The basket of sweetener was empty all weekend. 6). There was a small handful of jams but no butter or peanut butter. 6). The drains were extremely slow when draining. That was SO gross. 7). No coffee or coffee maker in the room, and the lobby coffee maker was turned off Saturday early evening. Sadly, this is the only hotel in the area so we have no choice but to stay there. But we don’t like it. Since the area is growing there will hopefully be another hotel built soon.

I had a couple issues during my stay. Both of the rooms I booked smelled musky, one room more than the other. I'm guessing this is because the A/C is left on for too long? Also, in one of the rooms I booked we found mold on the wall; specifically by the old venting that has been painted over. We failed to take a picture for reference. Great hotel and staff otherwise! :)
