Had to stay here one night coming back from Minnesota, we had a horrible ice and snow storm. I was pleasantly surprised, this hotel was clean, cheap, and close to lots of good eating places. I would stay here again and even stay a week or so if ever there is a reason to be in Des Moines for that... More

Though pretty small it was a spiffy clean room. Motel 6's policy of nicking you and extra $3 for wi-fi seems a little petty though... that makes them not my first choice. More

We have never stayed in a Motel 6 that has even been worth one star but we LOVE this place! Great neighborhood, incredibly kind staff, and clean, clean, clean. HIGHLY recommend this "just off the interstate" stop. More

Sometimes people think of Motel 6 as a less than budget place that is shady but this location has indoor room entrances, the rooms are very clean and comfortable and the staff... More

My extended family booked several rooms here for one night while visiting other family in the area. We're used to staying at Super 8s when we do family travel, so we're not choosy, but the Motel 6 was a downgrade. We all agreed we won't go back and will "spring" for the Super 8 next time. The rooms are very... More
