Historic East Village hotel guide. Motel 6 hotel in Historic East Village, Des Moines

"Badly needs to be renovated. Does not meet the typical Hyatt standard. Everything is beat up. Didn't even have snacks/drinks or basic medications available in the lobby. Thankfully it was only one night."

"The hotel is across the street from the south side of the beautiful Drake University so only a 3 block walk to the football/track stadium. The hotel is now about 5 years old. Everything is nice BUT if you want to wash your hands in the bathroom sink, well good luck! The spout is set sooo far back on the countertop, and the faucet spout is sooo short the water barely runs into the sink. There's noooo room to get your fingers behind the water to wash them. It's the same in EVERY room. OTHERS have reviewed the same, so that tells me that corporate doesn't give a dam!!! Just keep taking our money and don't give or fix anything. There are 2 simple fixes but after 5 years, you know the rest of the story. Just another "do nothing" company."

"Bathroom was clean and had what I needed. Bed was comfortable. Breakfast was an issue. No food at 9:00 in the morning. Waited for hot food. Waited some more. Nothing. This has happened several other times we were there. No one seems to be working in the breakfast area."

"It was a great hotel for the price and for a last minute booking! Just down the road from our sports complex! "

"Great place to stay! Highly recommend."

"Overall hotel was a little on the dirty side."

"It was a very clean room, accommodating staff and comfy beds.. I would stay there again. 😊"

"Good hotel at an excellent price"

"The young gentleman that worked the front desk was amazing. He was kind, personable, and attentive. We did have an issue the first night with our toilet not working. He called maintenance to come in, and they fixed it right away. Very pleased with our stay. "
