Top Hawthorne Plaza Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express & Suites West Des Moines - Jordan Creek by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"This was a nice motel. Everything was clean and attractive. The bed was comfortable and we slept well. The shower was good with plenty of water pressure. The breakfast was very good with plenty of selections."

Aloft by Marriott Waukee

8/10 Good

"My reservation was for only 1 night. The room was clean, but there were a couple of issues I found and a couple of suggestions I have. The issues: There was no hot water running through the sink, but thankfully the shower had hot water. The vanity light at the sink didn't work, and the light switches we're oddly placed, so you didn't quite know which switch would turn on/off which light. Also, the walls seemed to be very thin. You could hear most things happening in the next room and hallway. Some suggestions: The bed was very hard, a tad bit softer would be ideal. My soar neck and shoulder would appreciate it. An outlet by each side of the bed would be nice, not just on one side. The walk-in shower was nice, the fridge worked great and the television was nice and big, but could have used more channel options. The issues really didn't affect my overall stay and I'd stay here again because of its great location."

Motel 6 West Des Moines, IA

8/10 Good

"The staff was helpful, the dog walking area was great- good grassy areas and well lit. Not all the light fixtures in the room were functional. I would return on future trips."

Sleep Inn Waukee-West Des Moines

"Great place to stay in Waukee."

"The room felt mostly clean, but the hallways had mud tracked in on them. The room was spacious and we enjoyed the kitchen area. Our ice machine was not on or not working. Over all, we had a mostly pleasant stay."

Wildwood Lodge
