Days Inn by Wyndham West des Moines / Clive

This place was completely rundown. The balconies looked like there were about to crumble off the building. The doors look like they have been kicked in at least once and therefore do not open/shut without effort. The rooms are not clean- missing TV and one side of room had no electricity. Could not get out of there fast enough- so cannot comment on breakfast.

The bed was absolutely miserable, like sleeping on a box spring. The fridge in the room was froze over so was not cooling. Outside there was people grilling outside their rooms, broken furniture around, and kids running around. Police were driving by all the time

It smelled like someone smoked something illegal in my room before I arrived, then it was 83 degrees in the room when it was about that outside. The ceiling and walls were chipped paint and full of cobwebs, the tub was chipped and gross as well as the walls in the shower looked like they had been lime stained for years. Neither tv remote worked and the internet was down due to service issues so I was a pretty crappy night stay.

The room was very clean. The Tv didn’t work when we checked in and there wasn’t a telephone in the room to call the desk. The problem was fixed right away.

Pictures are not as described. I drove 9 hours and needed a place to sleep and we show up and there’s ply wood boarded up on a window, a not so favorable crowd, a chuckie doll hanging in a window, and work/maintenance going on drastically in the back of the building. Therefore making the property look half in use. Keep in mind I reserved this location two weeks in advance to be sure I would have somewhere nice. However when I tell you my jaw dropped and how unsafe I felt was an understatement. Fortunately the front desk person I spoke to stated they had not yet charged my card and therefore cancelled my reservation. I will still be keeping up on that in the coming days to be sure I was not charged but I definitely do not recommend this location for anyone. Pictures described a solid coat of paint on the outside but in person was dingy, paint peeling, rust everywhere, and concrete cracking. I’m not saying it has to be five stars and I know people say you get what you pay for but this was definitely a no for me.

Was nice to do laundry and at a reasonable price. Wish they had eggs for breakfast or fruit or other options.
