Motel 6 West Des Moines, IA

2.0 star property
8.0 out of 10, Very Good, (178)
"My stay was good. It was a super last minute booking because the hotel we booked was dog-friendly not pet-friendly. The front desk agent was super understanding and very helpful. He showed us the best place to park our moving truck and got us settled in quickly. There are no coffee pots in the room but they offer community coffee in the morning by the front desk. I wish they had offered slightly bigger cups for the coffee instead of mini 4 oz. cups. Overall I would stay there again. "

"This property offers the basic amenities, is very clean, and pleasant. The outside entry to the building locks after a certain time, and our key card wasn’t working properly, but the attendant didn’t mind us waking her up to help us. No breakfast because of COVID, but otherwise everything was fine. "

9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (45)
"Our family of 5 adults and 4 children stayed at the Woodland house from December 21 to 25. Our daughter's family of 5 that lives in the area joined us during the day. The house has plenty of room up and down. The basement area was especially nice for the kids and adults to play with plenty of space for cards, playing pool or ping pong. Full size laundry was very helpful. We contacted the host a couple times for needed items (wine glasses and tv remotes). They responded in a timely manner. ...
