This is the 5 STAR of 2 star motels(I'm not sure what it actually ranks. It's not a high dollar motel)...but it IS a great motel. Well worth every penny you might spend . If I'm looking for a place to spend the night again West of Des Moines, I'll be going here!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We liked the price as we are on a cross country road trip and like to stay in motels where we can park close to the room for a quick overnight stay. The room was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. And the refrigerator was very cold which a lot of places don’t offer. The only negative is they didn’t have coffee available in the room or the lobby.
