Super 8 by Wyndham Altoona

10/10 Excellent

"Our family stays at this hotel often, like every year for the last 15 years for the State Fair and a couple of years for State Track, and this hotel has always been a good stay. Less expensive than other fancy hotels, but always clean and comfortable."

Courtyard Marriott Ankeny

8/10 Good

"Property was very clean, room and beds were comfortable. Cold water in the lobby was nice. Coffee in the room wasn’t worth making, so I didn’t. No free coffee in the lobby, but a “bistro” where you could buy coffee and breakfast but neither were open when we left. Parking was free and plenty of it. Over-all I recommend the property."

AmericInn by Wyndham Ankeny/Des Moines

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great experience everything went well!"

My Place Hotel - Altoona/Des Moines, IA

8/10 Good

"A great location when visiting Adventure Land. A little outdated but clean and great staff."

Comfort Inn Marshalltown South

10/10 Excellent

"We didn’t get in until late but the front desk lady was cheerful and helpful. Breakfast was good, beds were comfortable, price was reasonable"

Best Western Plus Altoona Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great room, staff and breakfast"

Quality Inn & Suites Altoona - Des Moines

10/10 Excellent

"Mm"

Cobblestone Inn & Suites - Newton

8/10 Good

"Staff friendly and room clean"

Home2 Suites By Hilton Altoona Des Moines

8/10 Good

"Our Home2 by Hilton experience was an absolute pleasure in all areas until we got to breakfast. We were welcomed warmly into the new and squeaky clean facility, impressed by the big room and kitchenette. We grabbed a microwave meal from the nicely displayed selections in the coolers just off the lobby and were tempted by the beautiful pool. We slept soundly in our comfortable king sized bed. Soon after 6 AM we ventured down to breakfast. We found the food around the corner from the lobby. There was a good selection of breakfast fare on display in modern glass-faced warmers. Unfortunately it took some work to finagle the food out of the case with the tongs provided. We also could not find any salt and pepper. Once seated in the attractive dining area, we found our food lukewarm at best and the coffee less than impressive — an anticlimactic end to an otherwise perfect stay."
