Motel 6 West Des Moines, IA

"My stay was good. It was a super last minute booking because the hotel we booked was dog-friendly not pet-friendly. The front desk agent was super understanding and very helpful. He showed us the best place to park our moving truck and got us settled in quickly. There are no coffee pots in the room but they offer community coffee in the morning by the front desk. I wish they had offered slightly bigger cups for the coffee instead of mini 4 oz. cups. Overall I would stay there again. "
