Courtyard Marriott Ankeny

8/10 Good

"Property was very clean, room and beds were comfortable. Cold water in the lobby was nice. Coffee in the room wasn’t worth making, so I didn’t. No free coffee in the lobby, but a “bistro” where you could buy coffee and breakfast but neither were open when we left. Parking was free and plenty of it. Over-all I recommend the property."
