I could hear something crawling on my floor all night and the only switch to turn the light on was by the door.

It was nice but it had a funky smell. The back door was always unlocked even though it said you needed your key.

Never got to stay at the Woodspring Suites in Ankeny, IA, as booked through Expedia and no room was available when we arrived. The property is an undeveloped area and seemed a lil shady.
The front desk clerk, Jacob, was very understanding and helpful. He assisted in our relocation effort with Expedia and we really appreciated his assistance and insight.

I drove around the hotel 3 times trying to find the main entrance. The room was undecorated with no floor or table lighting. Don’t stay here for only 1 night and expect a typical hotel.

Management doesn’t care about patrons, changed checkout date and this place is not an extended stay hotel. Second worst WoodSpring suit I have ever stayed at.

This was the absolute worst bed I've ever slept in! I think the mattress must've been about 20 years old! It was on a metal frame with no box spring. If I would've had another option, I would have checked out and stayed somewhere else. This was unfortunately state fair time and rooms were scarce.

I knew this was a bare bones extended stay hotel, but I feel like I need to take 2 showers when i get home. Migrant workers roaming the halls stinking it up. The bed was the worst hotel bed ever. Imagine matress springs with a thin sheet covering them and you're just laying on them. It worked in a pinch as i only stayed to get 3-4hrs sleep after the Knoxville Nationals but I will never stay here again.
