Top Dexter Hotel Reviews

Sleep Inn Waukee-West Des Moines

10/10 Excellent

"It was a great place to stay!!! Clean, comfy beds, kind people, good location."

Stuart Motor Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"I only stayed one night, but I was quite impressed by how clean and well-kept the room was, and how helpful the staff was. At this price point, very often the motels may be clean, but the rooms often look worn, with older looking bedding and towels and furniture and such, and maybe things like caulking in the bathrooms that looks like it needs to be redone, older stained tile, etc.. This was not the case at this hotel. The bedding and furniture all looked well-kept and reasonably new, nothing was stained, the bed was comfortable, and everything worked the way it's supposed to. I don't need much in a motel, just a place to lay my head for the night, so I can't speak to local amenities, but I was quite impressed with my room and the service I received."

Covered Bridge Inn

8/10 Good

"No one was on site when we arrived at 11:45. Building was under construction at the time. Had to call a number to get a code to enter the building. Hall way was full of construction materials. Once settled in and finally asleep and resting.. the construction began at 7;00 am. With hammers and banging we were unable to sleep in. Only received approx 5-6 hours of sleep.. had we of known about the building being under construction, we would have stayed somewhere else. The lady present when we checked out was extremely nice, that was the highlight of our stay!"

Adair Budget Inn

8/10 Good

"This was definitely a budget option (which showed in the condition of the room and the lack of internet or breakfast), but the beds were clean and the room stayed cool overnight. It's also very conveniently located, just off the highway and close to a gas station and a very reasonable diner/family restaurant."

LUXURY GETAWAY! ARCADE, POOL TBL, PING PONG, HOT TUB, DECK! ACCESS TO POOLS!

8/10 Good

"Our overall experience with this property was favorable. It was well stocked in the kitchen and the bathrooms. The basement bathroom was a bit damp, and the exhaust fan was very noisy and didn't seem to be working very well. We didn't use it, which was unfortunate given the dampness of the room. The towels in the basement never felt dry either - a combination of the dampness and the low quality of the towels. And the only other criticism we would have is that there were no Kleenex provided anywhere in the house. Otherwise, we enjoyed playing ping pong and hanging out when we were at the house. I would recommend this property to others, especially if you have a large group and would utilize the games and activities in the basement, which also includes a large wet bar with a stove and refrigerator."

The Carmel/Bold/Massage /Chair Spacious / 3D Wall / Pool / Gym / Tanning Bed

10/10 Excellent

"This VRBO is located in a safe, clean area. The unit itself was clean and comfortable, Everything was as described and communication was great. It was nice to have a private garage. Definitely would stay there again."
