Maybe a two star hotel. Stains in the carpet. Even the attached Ankeny Diner food was poor. AC unit in the room was loud and you couldn’t really control when it would run or not. Windows were half sized and we looked into the roof if you were tall enough to see out the window. Would definitely spend more to stay elsewhere

Check in went well. The room was spacious, but the smell wasn't good. TV, fridge, and microwave worked well. The bed was somewhat uncomfortable and the pillowcases on the larger pillows were too small. The bathroom and the ceilings could use some updating. A pipe under the sink leaked a little. Breakfast was good, and the staff in the dining area was very friendly. The ice maker nearest the room did not work. The children had a blast in the pool area!

There was cob webs on my light fixtures. Stains on my mattress protector. By the pool the vents are thick with black mold or lint not sure but not cleaned and concerned what the kids were breathing. They say there is breakfast but they give you a voucher to go to the deli next door and then one of their workers had no idea how the voucher worked and tried to charge me to the point I was not going to do this everyday. I think the folks who run the place are sweet but wyndham clearly slapped their name on it and did some renovations but truly skipped the basics.
