An overnight stop in small-town USA. We enjoyed it & the hotel was basic but absolutely fine. Nice & clean with friendly, helpful staff. No lift though. Good brew pub a very short drive away for dinner. Bridges of Maddison County nearby and John Wayne birthplace!

Very clean hotel…when I arrived at the hotel found out there was no elevator. Luckily there were only two levels. Was inconvenient carrying luggage up two flights of stairs. My room air conditioning wasnt working properly so they moved me to another room. Luckily there was a cancellation across the hall from me. They were very nice and accommodating.

Liked the comfortable beds and bedding. Air conditioning worked great and the little bar was a nice addition to our family gathering. There was no elevator to the second floor that was hard for some of our family members but we made it work.

Have stayed there before and when I requested a ground floor room they did it. This time she won't do it they had rooms on the first floor empty that night they don't have an elevator so was hard to get up the stairs. How do they expect a wheelchair to get up the stairs?

Great Staff and Excellent Facility Made Up for One Minor Inconvenience. This hotel was built in 2015, and is still very well kept. Try to get a room facing the back, as there is a field of wildflowers (with housing beyond). Our room was clean and tidy and very comfortable. Super nice staff! On Sunday morning (7/27), the desk clerk happened to be in our hallway and asked if we wanted help carrying our cooler downstairs! How nice! She also gave us great info on which Covered Bridge to visit that was the most convenient if we didn't want to travel gravel roads (Cutler-Donahoe in City Park). Super helpful! I highly recommend this hotel. Yes, it's a chain, so rather nondescript in many ways, but the experience was as welcoming as it could be. The minor inconvenience: The internet was out. We had to use our WiFi hotspot. They gave us a number to call, but we didn't want to hassle with it. Not a huge problem for us, as we spent most of our time exploring the area.

The room and motel was clean but it was a nightmare checking in. They had me checked in even though I just got there. Then they had my name but they had my address living in texas which I've never lived there. It was under my name though. When I checked out the receipt didn't have my credit card listed but someone else's. They finally got it all straightened out but wow what a mess.

The lady at check in was very nice and said they still had 4 rooms available and I was given one. I would’ve been upset after driving all day if there wasn’t one ready for me. Might’ve been a glitch on someone end? Still it was a pleasant stay.

This was a lovely, friendly, well kept hotel that was nicer than you would expect in a town in the middle of farm country. The hotel was clean, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the town itself was just adorable. Hotel receptionist was very helpful with describing the 4 restaurants in town that weren't chain restaurants, and her recommendations were spot on. Morning breakfast was well organized, but was nothing special. That being said, driving the 35 frequently and looking for a stop near Des Moines, I would definitely favor this stop slightly south of Des Moines in a safe, cute community with eating options that are better than Des Moines.

Clean, quiet, comfortable. The pillows are not the best, they go flat super easy. Breakfast was not good. We’ve stayed here before and had good breakfast. This time the waffle mix was very runny and the waffles tasted “off”. They also only offer sugar free syrup which was not good. There was no bacon or sausage and the eggs were bland and chalky at best. The biscuits were hard. The cereal and yogurt was good though.
