Newly remodeling or still works in progress. Not bad. Bed was top notch. Pillows good. bath good. Good shower water pressure. Room Decor was hip and new. Window darkening shades: good. Pool space is good. Workout room- good. . The bad: Good grief. Fix these guest room doors! Put some weatherstripping around the door jambs. Nothing worse than seeing bright light shining around the doors all night. Had to stuff towels around the doors to darken room. Also: no door strike around the Onity keyless lockset. Come on guys. You just carved a hole into the jamb and left it. Totally unsecure. Also what's with the baby blue paint scheme on these doors and trim? Looks cheap, dated and crappy. The exterior side entrances are crap! Spend some money and replace these 1970's hunks of crap with decent aluminum storefront doors. All in all....You did some things good and then dropped the ball on the other items.

Comfortable bed, clean room, but I was very irritated that the tub took almost two hours to remotely fill… and then the jacuzzi jets didn’t even work. I would’ve just got a regular room if I had known that.

It ticked all the boxes. It’s obviously an older building, but it was clean, beds were comfortable, room had a mini fridge and microwave. Air conditioner took a while to get the room cooled off. Nothing spectacular but no complaints either.

Overall, it was OK. The other hotel we usually stay at was full. This is an older worn hotel that has a fresh coat of paint and new furnishings in the rooms. On the surface it looks good, but if you look close, you can tell it still needs some work. For example, doors, trim and woodworking are worn. I would stay here again, but it would not be my first choice.

My stay at this hotel was less than satisfactory. The bathroom was in dire need of a deep cleaning, with visible grime and mold in several places. The rug around the bed appeared stained and smelled of urine. The entire hotel smelled of mildew. Additionally, the remodel appeared hastily done and poorly executed, leaving much to be desired in terms of aesthetics and functionality. Overall, I would not recommend this hotel to others until significant improvements are made to address these issues.

We were in town for a concert. I read that it was recently updated. That is true, but the workmanship is sub-par. I was afraid to use the outlet by the sink because of the stucco all over it. The baseboard wasn't finished behind the toilet & there was visible water damage/mold on a wall next to an ice machine. We saw online that the Ankeny Dinner was open until 8pm, however when we arrived at 10:10am for breakfast, they were closing. They have put work into this hotel, but when you are paying for a Wyndham Hotel, you expect that level. It's just not at that level.

This newly remodeled hotel is a great option for families. It had a nice swimming pool with poolside rooms, laundry and a Diner attatched to the hotel with breakfast in the mornings. I am very impressed. There are some items on the surface that need a little work- but overall, I would definitely come back. This property is great and affordable- very impressed!!!

Lots of issues with doors. One exterior door wouldn't open with my key card, one exterior door was permanently open - anyone could walk in. The bathroom door (on a track like a barn door) did not open and close properly and came off the track many times during our stay. The door to our room did not feel securely shut. The desk in our room was not wiped down before our stay, the whole room felt like it wasn't properly cleaned. The price was lower, so maybe I should lower my standards, but I would pay more and stay somewhere else in the future.

First we found food in our fridge, we didnt say anything but in the back of our minds wondered what else in the place hadnt been cleaned. Then in the morning while lookimg for something saw that between the vanity and the wall there was a toothbrush, hanger, empty shampoo containers and other various garbage. Then as we went to leave for breakfast we realized the door latch was not functioning and our door would not close. Tried to call the front desk, the phone isnt even funtional, so I walked up there and the lady did not understand anything I was trying to tell her. First she thought I needed my key reprogrammed, and when I explained that the door wouldn't close, she had no help to offer except that maybe I was doing it wrong (closing a door wrong) and that she would let her manager know and someone would look at it. Tried to explain that we were trying to leave for breakfast and we couldnt just leave the door wide open with all of our belongings inside and the only part she heard was we were trying to leave. "Okay," and kept my key she was holding. We had to gether all our stuff and leave and after breakfast, we had no place to return to until our event started later that day.

We did a quick little getaway with my family. We had a room with 3 beds. Overall the room was okay. The heater kept shutting off the 1st night and our door broke where it wouldn't latch without deadbolting it. The front desk ladybwas hard to understand and was kinda rude. I wasn't really impressed with quality of service. They have the Ankeny Diner attached to hotel and they gave you vouchers for breakfast there, wasn't super impressed with that either. When we got there the pool was refilling so we couldn't swim that 1st night. The 2nd night we went to go swim and it was ice cold. My 18 month olds fingers, toes, and lips started to turn blue. So we had to go back to our room and "swim" in the bathtub. We tried to make the best of it. They day we left the house keeper was SO SWEET to my kiddos and made us all smile. We adored her!

Property was shown as a three star hotel, it is not! I give it two stars for future guests reference. It is an average to below average remodel old motel. Room smelled of body odor, and heat/ac was really noisy. I wouldn’t stay again.

Checked in and was sent to rm 150. Walk in to a rm that was never cleaned. Then was told to grab my stuff and come to the front desk. I was then given keys to rm 250. Walk in and see base falling off the wall everywhere. I found the access door to the jacuzzi was broken. Checked to make sure the tub worked and only the cold faucet worked. Then told me to sit tight for about 20-30 minutes and they’d get the first rm cleaned and ready to go. So after over an hour’s time messing with rooms, I finally settled into 150. Wife and I took a bath. The air bubbles were freezing cold air. Left super early in the morning. Was totally disappointed by this place. Will NEVER be back or recommend.

It took 3 people to check us in, we had no hot water in our room. The room had also not been heated so it was about 50 degrees upon entry. The sheets they use on the beds do not cover it fully. There was no comforter, and they were unsure if they could get us a an additional blanket ( they did). We asked to move rooms, abd the first thing we were asked was if we had disturbed the bed (because clearly they do not have adequate staff to tidy up the room) and after several difficulties and 30 minutes of that, we said we would simply return to the original room. We were reassured that if we ran the water for 3-4 minutes, we would get hot water. There was hot water in the sink, but the shower water was barely warm. Additionally, the toilets have not been properly installed as it can shift on the floor very easily. Finally, I had indicated that I would pay at property through Expedia, and before we even checked in, my credit card had been charged by the hotel. There were a number of other issues with the property and room that are less egregious, but overall this was one of the worst hotels I have ever stayed at.

The remodel and making the hotel non smoking are great improvements. The rooms are much nicer, on par with 3 star hotels. The hallways could use an upgrade, but overall, one of the nicer hotels for the price in the area.

I was not impressed for the money I spent for three nights. Went to get a cup of coffee in the morning before breakfast and the coffee was cold. The front desk lady told me to pour another cup and it would be warmer. That wasn’t the case, it was colder than my first attempt. Then when I asked for more coffee pods for the room, it was like I was asking for something that was being rationed. Then we had an issue with the door to our room. The lady at the desk didn’t care. She even let me know when dealing with the door issue I had been to the desk to complain four times that morning, she was wrong, I’d been there only three times. When dealing with the door issue she was still consumed about me saying the coffee was cold. We did not get the bang for our buck. When checking out, we were not asked about our stay. The front desk lady was more concerned about her personal phone calls and being annoyed when we needed something. The didn’t offer a breakfast but offered a certificate for 5 dollars off breakfast at the restaurant in the same building. The front desk lady was annoyed when we asked for certificates every morning as she had to fill the certificate out. As I drove around Ankeny on a weekend, the hotel parking lots looked full, this one was the exception and was not.
