Top Hotels Near Margo Frankel Woods State Park in Des Moines from AU$74

"This facility was completely disgusting. The hotel wreaked of marijuana as soon as you walked in. Entire place was dirty. Floors were sticky. Unkept rooms and bathrooms. Entire structure was questionable. Windows were held closed with broomsticks. We didn’t even sleep in the room. We slept in the truck in the parking lot. Was an expensive parking spot. Sad part is we were not the only ones. Several others were extremely disappoint and refused to stay there too. Utterly disgusting. Please never refer this place to anyone else. "

"Hotel was dirty. Smelled of smoke terribly for a smoke free facility. Sheets were stained. Wouldn’t allow early check in at all as they said rooms hadn’t been checked out of but there was only 2 cars in the parking lot. Many other people in front of me had their rooms doubled booked so they had nowhere to stay. 2 staff members in general basically said there was nothing that could do about it. We got to our room and immediately turned around and left facility. "

"Great location! Plenty of parking. "

"Yes"

"Very spacious, great shower and large bathroom. The loft is fun, but expect to hear others on the other side of the loft. "

"The hotel had a modern look in the lobby and my room. I liked the walk-in shower. The bed was very comfortable but the pillows didn't provide support. The hot breakfast was satisfactory; the fresh yogurt bar was unique."

"The staff was amazing and clean"

"Nice, clean, and fairly new"

"Room was a nice temp when we walked in, which was a surprising plus. Room was clean enough. Pool temperature was enjoyable. Beds were comfortable enough. Check in was smooth and efficiently. Towels were never stocked in the poolroom. There was a group of teens in the pool both nights we were there in their in the pajamas (girls) and underwear (boys) playing music loudly over a bluetooth speaker and jumping and throwing each other without much regard for others. Also hanging on eachother in front of children. Another family said their room smelled of smoke heavily. The hotels around seem sketchier but we had no isses personally. There were always people standing around outside (smoking) but nothing seemed dangerous. Just off main road but weirdly has no straight entrance from mainroad and have to turn on side streets to get there (can be narrow at times due to cars parked on side of road in residential areas). Breakfast was decent. Not a full buffet per say, but more than fruit and cereal. Very small breakfast area. Tvs can log into your own streaming services. Would stay again for cheap stay when passing through the area or for short visits when planning to spend little time in an accommodation other than to sleep/was."
