Hostels in Iowa, United States

First time visit to this AmericInn. Nice, clean motel across the street from the airport so you can't beat the location. Also easy to get to the highways. Front desk clerk for check-in was nice. Room was nice and clean including the bathroom. Internet worked fine. Breakfast was the usual motel breakfast: make your own waffles, eggs, sausage, grits, cereal, fruit, mini muffins, etc. The indoor pool is closed for renovation. I do not use motel pools so that did not bother me. No noise from the airport so I fell fast asleep each night. I will stay here if I visit Des Moines again.

Surprisingly quiet considering its location so close to the huge highway ...although this is near a train yard and they are honking their horns a LOT!!!!! Nice clean room with many new power outlets and USB ports. Bedding comfortable and a easily managed TV. Washroom area is ”interesting” with a small outside sink with little counter space and the new shower/tub is behind a somewhat cumbersome door. A pleasure to stay here....and hopefully I will return.

Affordable stay, very nice and clean , services are prompt, breakfast good, the location is perfect, the room was perfect for family

The staff was friendly, the hotel was quiet and everything appeared in working order. I was concerned reading previous reviews but other places in Indianola were twice the price. For a one-night business stay I had a big desk and well lit room and good wireless connectivity. Continental breakfast was on par with what one expects. Maybe not all the fancy bells and whistles, but I had no issues with my stay.

Stay at another motel in town, first night got up next morning and checkout of it wasn’t a good place was able to check in early at Comfort Inn.Man behind the counter was so nice. Location is right in main part of the restaurant area walking distance all them. The pool was perfect always had it to our self so peaceful. If you’re in the area 5 stars stay.

Loved this place. Stayed here for three nights while attending events at the Xtream Arena down the street. Parked the car at check-in, and never touched it again til we checked out. Less than a 5 minute walk to arena. Had a 1 bedroom suite w/ 2 queen beds in it. Pretty roomy for the two of us. At less than $175/night, it was good value w/ free breakfast, and parking was only $5/night. Everything in the room worked. Staff were all nice. Area around hotel has several places to eat/drink, although some closed rather early.. i.e., the pizza/bar across the street closing at 9pm on a thursday night.

It was a great night

When picking up the plane, the hotel asked me to take a taxi from the airport, the hotel paid the money, when the plane was delivered, the hotel staff drove it by themselves and the service was very good. The hotel is in the city, but because it is a big winter, it is cold outside, the river is frozen, the road is frozen, so there is almost no outdoor activity, just walked down SKYWALK, an indoor passage connecting many buildings in the city. There is also heating inside, and the city is small.

Excellent Hotel for the Night. As we entered to check in, Nick was warm and friendly. he was very accommodating due do our mobility issues. The room was on the first floor and easy to walk to. It was clean and smelled good.

I traveled to this Super 8 with a large group of students who would be competing in the National Speech and Debate Association competitions in Des Moines. Our group traveled for more then 18 hours to get there from the Northern Mariana Islands after a stop overnight on the Island of Guam. We were a very tired group. The front desk got to work right away, to get us into our rooms so we could head out to do a little shopping for necessities and have a Dinner nearby were we hit a Jack Pot right away. The Mexican restaurant is the best. Getting back to the Super 8. The staff were great. The rooms were clean and ready to go with a couple of exceptions that they fixed immediately. One was a cleaning over sight in one of our numerous rooms, the other an odder. Both, as noted, were taken care off immediately. I expected the rooms to be basic, but they were better than basic. The décor was lively, the beds great, the amenities top rate. Everything worked. Traveling with students is not the easiest thing in the world, but the Super 8 staff did everything they could to help us out. They were attentive and responsive. On long stays, the staff makes the difference, especially with a large group. This staff was tops. The competitions will be held in Des Moines again next year, and for sure we know where we want to stay....again!

Breakfast consisted of blueberry muffins, plain bagels, fruit loops, Raisin Bran, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, a waffle maker with the hotel logo heated into your waffle (cheesy to me), and coffee and two flavors of juice. I ordered breakfast in on day two because I was still so hungry after breakfast on day one. The key cards were garbage. It took everyone 5+ tries to get into the room every time, even after taking it up to the desk to get it switched out. We were better off leaving someone in the room to let us back in. Also, you don’t need a key card to get into the hotel side doors or the pool! There is a mechanism on the wall for a key card but the door was unlocked and it wasn’t necessary or functioning. Someone can just walk in off the street and go swimming! I did not enjoy seeing a man’s bare feet and overgrown toenails clacking against the floor while he checked in. That was unhygienic and disgusting. You should be required to wear at least socks. A boy almost drowned in the pool while we were there. We weren’t in the pool so I didn’t see what happened but there were plenty of people not following the posted rules, which weren’t being enforced by staff, and the whole thing seemed pretty unsafe, so I’m not entirely surprised that a tragedy occurred. Other than those gripes, the rooms were generally clean. The lobby was generally clean. Breakfast area was clean. Lots of places nearby for food, it’s off a pretty busy highway. It does appear a bit old but for the $100 difference we saved over two nights vs the neighboring hotels that offer the same amenities, it was okay. I might pay the difference for better quality next time, but for the purpose of our trip where we were out a lot, it really wasn’t THAT bad. You just get what you pay for with this place. Nothing remarkable or worth mentioning about it.

While traveling cross country with our dogs amid the covid crisis and the recent wind storm through Iowa, we stopped here on a Friday night. Found the check in person pleasant, microfridge in and pretty decent room. Also found non existent WI-FI (room 107 - back & bottom). Ice is given out by office personnel. $50 pet deposit required for us. I was not impressed with this motel 6. No, I personally do not recommend this establishment. Very poor value for the money (my opinion)
