Summary: We found the accommodations OK. We were in town for the State Fair and just needed an air conditioner, a bed, and a shower. The shower did not have much hot water or pressure. The air conditioning is a window unit, so it was a bit loud, but it did drown out the street noise. The room was clean and adequate for our needs, and the price was right. The facility is old and looks a bit sketchy, but the receptionist was kind, helpful, and friendly.

Summary: Others have pointed this out already and it is true. The rooms are nicely renovated. The exterior could use some work. The owners are putting in a serious effort to bring it up to speed. Further, they are kind and considerate people.
One ask, do a stranger a favor and feed the local cat. Or if you can bring him to Animal Services at 1441 Harriet Street, that would be even better. He can get his shots, be nuetered and adopted.
The poor guy was screaming outside my room during a rain storm. I forgot my card in my room when I went out to help him. So I spent a few hours in the stairwell keeping him company.
When I was able to get the keys to my car from my room and find the drop of (cats don't always do great in cars outside a carrier) I was unable to find him when I returned. Hopefully someone is caring for him in the nearby neighborhood.
But if you see him and are able please bring him to the shelter on Harriet street.Winters in Des Moines are cold. He is very friendly and would make a great pet for a lucky family.
Thank you,
Ryan from Rhode Island
