When we first arrived we were greeted by Allen who was very short and unprofessional and gave us NO options for rooms or amenaties for the rooms or costs as we were unsure on how long our stay with Motel 6 was going to be. Then we were greeting Nathan, another employee and management that were also rude and unprofressional.... More

After a long driving day the location close to the interstate and gas station was what was needed. Staff were friendly and helpfull. Lots of parking and well lit parking lot for getting things out of the vehicle at night. I would have no trouble staying here again in the future.

This is my first stay at this Motel 6. The location is a little hard to find, but well worth it. I travel for work and stay in a motel most nights. I'm not gonna pay an extra 20-30 bucks for a free shampoo! If you work for a living and know the value of a dollar, this is the... More

First off we were driving cross country, coming from the peaceful and SAFE city of Fort Collins Colorado I am skeptical about where I stay overnight, the location is perfect. High end part of West Des Moines, so if you decide to stay at this Motel 6, the location will without a doubt, the least of your worries. Really cannot... More

I am generally opposed to staying in a Motel 6, especially the old ones. They can be dirty and downright scary. This was NOT the case at the Motel 6 on Office Drive in West Des Moines! This motel above all things was CLEAN! It is a fairly new facility. The room had newer carpet and bathroom fixtures-no dents, stains,... More

This property was other hotel chains before becoming a Motel 6. The room was very clean, great location-make sure to go down to University Ave for a large selection of dining options or over to the Jordan Creek Mall area. Only negative is I had a room facing the interstate-ask for a room away from the interstate. I will stay... More

This was one of the nicest Motel 6's I have stayed in. The rooms are inside opposed to outside. The room was very clean and the beds comfortable. I can do with out shampoo, to me you just bring your own just like when you travel you usually do. No breakfast, which is fine with me because most of the... More

I stopped here last night and I was pleasantly surprised the rooms are very nice and well kept. I'm not a Motel 6 fan, but if they were all like this one, I would change my mind. I slept well as the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was very clean and modern, great shower. No shampoo in the room,... More
