Summary: They will never get my business again!! I killed 2 spiders in the bathroom! There was blood on the sheets! Mold in the vent. Very dirty vents. But they were kind to get us to the airport. This is not my blood on the shhet. The spiders were killed too fast for me to photocrsph

Summary: Staff was super friendly and nice. Older building but clean.

Summary: This hotel was photographed nicely, but was not as nice as the photos. Our room overlooked the indoor pool, so the lights were on all night and shone under the shades. There must have been some sort of event going on, and we heard loud drumming from 6 pm until midnight. Every beat. I feel like this is something that could have been disclosed to us. Overall I was disappointed in our stay, especially considering how much I spent on it.

Summary: Beds were very uncomfortable. Breakfast was not cooked.
Bendel Aug 11, 2025 09:45:03 AM
Summary: Breakfast was adequate, beds were okay, and internet would not stay connected. Pool is nice and location is perfect for us.
Richard Aug 11, 2025 12:17:08 AM
Summary: The hotel is clean, older property that been updated but paint colors interesting. The door stuck very bad and hot and cold water switched up on the shower

Summary: Several families met up in Des Moines to visit the Blank Park Zoo full size, animated dinosaurs exhibit... which was awesome!!! We spent Fri/Sat at the Clarion Inn Airport. From booking to check out our experiences was the best. We were able to get our rooms really close to each other, the pool was sooo nice and the Mexican restaurant on site had a great buffett, food and service 5 star. Out of 12 people in the party there were no complaints on anything. The room was good sized, clean and comfortable. The breakfast had plenty hot and cold food options, was clean with plenty space to really sit down and enjoy an early morning meal. The 2 gentlemen at the front desk were fun and very accommodating! Even letting us gather in the breakfast area for a farewell pizza party later Saturday night rather than having to go to the pool side area that was a little louder or squeezing 12 people into a room to eat (in return we cleaned the area so the breakfast crew wouldn't know we were even there). The motel location was close to the Zoo and Airport. There were plenty good restaurants and shopping establishments within 5-20 mins. I would stay there again and would recommend the Clarion Inn to friends!

Summary: I was not aware of how much noise the aircraft made taking off and landing at the airport. I could hear them at 3 to 4 am. The hotel appears to be going through updates, but there was an expose electric box in our bathroom that had wires exposed. Staff was nice. The free breakfast was plentiful but cold. I tried the biscuits and gravy but the gravy was cold. The next day the sausage links I had were cold as well. I wasn't really impressed with it.

Summary: Quick overnight stay. Easy pick-up at the airport, even though it was late night and staff was extremely friendly. Room was great. A/C unit a bit loud but not complaining as it worked great even during terrible heat wave. I stayed at this hotel several years ago prior to the renovation; they did a decent job. Would stay here again!

Summary: Worked fine to stay close to the airport before flying out. One employee to do everything it seemed so prepare to wait for shuttle. Dog friendly so that was nice
