Studio 6 Altoona IA Des Moines East

Muy cómodo y confortable

Kitchen had what we needed, i ended up boiling water in their pot for some tea. The room was nice, or atleast what i expect for the price. The people were a little sketchy but can't completely blame the hotel for that. I had booked one room for me and my husband and another for my nephews family with a dog, pets stay free was the big perk in this affordable hotel. Had to walk up stairs to the room though.

Rooms weren't clean, food on tables and floors. Night staff not friendly, dont waste your time. Motel 8 is much nicer.

Upon arrival, my husband gave me a look that said, “What did you book us” I’m not picky if a hotel is clean, safe, smells good, and the rooms are maintained, I’m happy. With a 7.8 rating, I figured we’d be fine. Check-in was...meh. The lobby was cluttered with boxes and bins, clearly being used as storage. The woman at the desk was polite but overworked—no smile, just business. We got one key on a sticky note and directions to the next building. Driving around, it was clear the property was poorly maintained. Broken or bent window screens, uneven asphalt, and what appeared to be permanent campers gave a rough first impression. Walking toward the side entrance, I joked about the lock—and unsurprisingly, it was broken. The hotel is pet-friendly, and the odor was evident inside. The pool was closed, and what I glimpsed looked dirty and neglected. Hallways were dirty, stairs had ripped carpet creating tripping hazards, and leaves and grass littered the floors. The room itself appeared clean but smelled strongly of bleach, good thing the windows opened. The bed linens seemed fine, but I dared not look under the linens, the bathroom mostly clean but with a stray ball of dog fur and a hanging dirty towel. Missing amenities included a TV remote, hair dryer, and ironing board. A stove was present but non-functional. Despite a quiet night and decent sleep, overall, the property felt poorly maintained, with nice but questionable people walking around. I would not stay here again.

Several electrical things were not up to code. The kitchenette had a burner but no pan or pot or any utensils. No hand towels. The ice machine in the hall didn't work. The shower ant the hottest was luke warm. Over all it was quite poor experience.
