Great: Hotel was clean and staff was friendly. The breakfast area is large and is a really nice place to visit or play games during the day or evening. Location is convenient for things in Ankeny and only a short distance to Des Moines. Spacious rooms, nice bathroom. Parking is easy.

Not quite great: The ice machine on our floor did not work the entire time we were there. Going to the front desk was not bad, but I hated to interrupt them. There was some sort of loud fan or belt noise in the pool that made it not very pleasant to be in there. 14 year-old wanted to swim several times but didn't because of the noise.
There are also very bright lights that flash periodically (I think CO monitors) - very noticeable in the dark.

Hotel needs an update. Water pressure was low and we did report that to the front desk so maybe it was just our room. Staff were very nice. The room was clean but fruit was small or not ripe. Didn't eat breakfast there but the same as most other hotels.
Chips in the furniture and wall in the bathroom probably could have used another coat.
It would be most helpful if there was a weather station for the area insted of looking all the time at the phone apps to guess the weather. A couple of music sptations would also be nice. But management will probably say that it cuts into their bottom line.

Breakfast felt old, juice in pitchers, no hot oatmeal, coffee in separate room, just felt out dated
Room, shower doors and wall were not clean. Toilet was super hard to flush, handle was ready to break.

The room was clean and the beds were very comfortable. Our room overlooked the pond which was very nice. Only complaint I would have was the sliding barn door style bathroom door. Parking was adequate and two nice restaurants are within easy walking distance.
Coffee was very good and breakfast was as expected. The staff was very friendly at checkin and also serving the breakfast . It was a busy weekend for the hotel because of a softball tournament in the area and I would say they handled it very well.

Rooms were great, but they were extremely hot, with no option to set the thermostat lower than 68, and could not open a window. Also, the bathroom sink lighting is extremely dim. Could not find a way to make it brighter, so it made it difficult to see well when getting ready for our event. Otherwise everything else was wonderful!

We checked in with ease. Went to the small workout facility. Went to the pool but it is not a very big pool and there were quite a few kids in there so we passed on the pool. We went to the room to only find out the tv didn’t work. Called the front desk and someone said they would come up and look at it. After about 30-45 minutes, someone came up. He pulled the tv off the wall and could not get it to work. He said sorry it does work and they need to put in a new tv. No let me see if I can find you one or move your room. No compensation for the tv not working. Now let me remind you it is March madness. I was stuck watching the games on my tablet. As much as I paid for this room, you world think it would have a working tv. Also when all the lights are off, there is a bright flashing light where the smoke detector is. Every time I shut my eyes, there was a bright flash every few seconds. If I wasn’t so tired it could definitely make it hard to fall asleep. Wouldn’t stay again

After a long drive of 15 hours, I was fatigued but still saw the bed sheets and such were stained. The front desk guy was nice and brought another set. Sadly, it was the same problem. They need to change how they do the laundry or replace to new ones. It’s very unattractive and unappealing to see yellow and dirt stains.
