But we wanted to stay for two. The Des Moines Beach Park is 2 blocks away a nd includes a fishing pier! Check in was quick, although the lady smoking outside thinks Anthonys is cheap. The room was clean amd tidy and as basic as I needed/expected for the price. Would stay again

Definitely an old building but it has been renovated. Spacious room, comfortable bed. Had a kitchenette, but no dishes or utensils. Bathroom was clean but in a little disrepair. The towel rack was damaged, as was the tub and shower curtain. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Nearby restaurants were good. Very quiet area. Good access to highway.

We stayed there once. Rooms are outdated, but rather nice and large. Loved the fridge in the room. Unfortunately the "hot tub" in the room was little more than a jetted tub. When we turned on the jets, the smell of mold was so bad we had to turn it off and open a window. When we checked out, the... More

The guests never compained of any odor problems, or we would have gladly moved them to another room. The "hot tub" they refer to is a 2- person Jacuzzi, NOT a standard size tub with jets. The towel(s) that were damaged were due to the lady dying her hair at the hotel, NOT spilled soda.The clerk was simply trying to... More

The area is very quiet. The rooms are clean and well kept. The rooms are outdated and smell moldy. The shower curtains need to be changed out every month. The rooms are large and spacious. I loved that the rooms had a fridge and a microwave. DO NOT let the maids in the rooms when you are staying there. Only... More

These guests stayed here in December. When he showed me the razor blade in question, there were long wispy reddish-blond hairs on it, more like arm hairs than razor stubble. Our housekeepers all have dark hair.The gentelmans haircolor was a direct match to the hairs on the razor, not from our staff. Our continental breakfast consists of; milk, juice, coffee,2... More

We have stayed here several times on a park n fly package. The shuttle is quick, and operates 24 hours a day. The hotel is a few minutes from the airport, but just far enough you don't have to worry about loud noises from planes. Rooms are nice, comfortable and clean. Most rooms have a kitchentte, coffee maker and coffee... More

My reservation was 'cocked-up' 3 times - initially on the phone and twice at check in. Beds were brutally hard and neither of us slept hardly at all. We were on a stay and fly package which has a somewhat discounted rate from other places in the area. Room is very dated but no creepy crawly things. A charge list... More

We chose the marina based on the positive reviews. And the Info was mostly accurate. Good price, clean, friendly and cheerful staff, and the best bang for your buck. Beware of the following: if you fly out early, they will give you some prepackaged pastries, but there is no coffee! Also they are absurdly strict about the shuttle service. We... More

We stayed here on a park-and-fly package and found it a pleasant alternative to the many chain motels on International Boulevard. It was quiet, comfortable and clean. Shuttle service to the airport was easy and efficient. And it was great to stay in a place that felt like a real "neighborhood" where you could walk around and find interesting bits... More

We stayed New Year's Eve 2012 at Marina Inn because we'd stayed there before and it is close to everything in Des Moines. The room was nice and large but the towels in the bathroom were worn and thin and a bit on the gray side - definitely in need of replacement. The bed was comfortable and we had a... More

Stayed here for one night because it was pretty much the cheapest place around. The room turned out to be more of a suite so there was lots of space, and we were pleasantly surprised at this. Behind the bed hadn't been cleaned (nowhere that I would be going), and the burner cover on the stove had been burned, but... More
