Hotel a Grimes

“Very clean and quiet. Staff was friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again whenever I’m through the Des Moines area!”

“Unfortunately, our stay ended before it even began. Shortly after arriving, we found what appeared to be bed bugs in the bed. We immediately took photos and brought them to the front desk. The staff member we spoke with was helpful and acknowledged our concerns, but was unable to issue a refund. We decided to leave for our own peace of mind and called back later that evening because we were told the night staff had the authority to process refunds. Instead, we were told that the sheets were...

“Checking in wasn’t the best experience. I was told I had booked 2 rooms with Expedia when it was only one. Then after checking I was wondering if the breakfast was still included like I had seen online? I had to go back to the desk to ask because she didn’t tell me anything about breakfast!”

“Staff was very helpful and rooms were perfectly cleaned. The price for the room was very acceptable. My only complaint would be the water pressure when I showered. I would definitely stay there again.”

“Staff was super friendly, nice pool area, breakfast very very good, comfortable bedding, hot showers.”

“You should put in the online description that your pool is "out of service" because thats the only reason I chose the place and was extremely pissed off when I got there to find out it wasn't available!!!!!!”

“We stayed at Econo Lodge in room 228 for one night and the room has BED BUGS! Once we realised that , we contacted the hotel but the staff was not helpful at all. We were told that the rooms are clean and that we were supposed to let them know at the time of stay (which was 1 night in our case). I would not recommend staying at this hotel, especially in room 228.”

“Clean room air conditioning”

“Loved everything about it. Very nice.”

“Very helpful and friendly staff.”

“It is a new hotel. Beds were amazing and the ac was cold . I will stay here again when I come thru Des Moines”

“Room was okay, bed was comfortable, but facility was not very clean and breakfast was mediocre.”

“The breakfast and kickback are wonderful amenities, especially for families with kids. My issues is that they only have two elevators in a building with 6 floors. That includes housekeeping and maintenance as well. So when one elevator isn’t working (like while we were there) that is a major inconvenience. There were people waiting in line for the elevator in a line with staff and having to take turns and wait multiple times with 6 floors! Also the beds suck, worst night of sleep I’ve had in a...

“Rooms were clean, the staff was quick and helpful after a long day of traveling.”

“the staff was helpful”

“The hotel is very clean.”

“Second year we have stayed there for a local family reunion. No complaints or issues. Well cared for property, helpful staff. decent breakfast and conveniently located to Ankeny/north Des Moines properties. Will stay again,”

“Grandkids loved the indoor pool and jacuzzi (also there's a sauna), and game room. I appreciated the 2 sinks in the room, with one being outside the bathroom. With 4 of us it was so much easier getting ready. Good breakfast, outdoor eating areas and random places to relax and socialize throughout the hotel.”

“First thing I noticed when I got to my room was someone put a shower cap over the smoke detector. This was obviously done so someone could smoke in the room. There was a ceramic tile on the bathroom floor that was broken and would pop out when stepped on. It was sharp and could easily cut someone’s foot. The TV didn’t work so we had to call for a maintenance guy to try and fix it. He got it working but periodically the tv would disconnect from the cable and turn off. The maintenance man was...
