Motel 6-Altoona, IA - Des Moines East, hotel in Altoona

This motel is less than 2 minutes from Adventureland Amusement Park and Prairie Meadows Race Track and Casino. A free shuttle to the casino is available through the casino.

Nothing i checked out after 3 hours due to unsafe living conditions. The smoke detector wasn't working and someone who stayed there before me put a plastic bag over it. On top of that the pillows had blood stains on them. The staff wasn't helpful finding clean pillows and rude when we asked for new ones. Terrible experience. We had our one year old baby in the room and it smelled very strong of bleach and musty. After 2 hours we checked out. We also didn't get a refund. We had to call corporate to complain for pillows.

    Excellent staff, very helpful.

    Excellent staff, very helpful. Very close to race track and Adventureland. Close to fantastic restaurants (we highly recommend Jethro's Barbecue, about two blocks away). Gret morning breakfasts and cocktail bar is available in the afternoon and evening on site.

    Great place to bring children and family to stay and swim.

    Great place to bring children and family to stay and swim. Nice restaurant with good food and drink. Very spacious and clean rooms. Rooms are great with balconies so you can relax and watch the swimmers. Nice safe area. Restaurants within walking distance Mc Donald's, taco, and even Jethro Barbeque. Don't forget the Altoona Outlet Mall for great shopping.

    We have always loved AdventureLand.

    We have always loved AdventureLand. We have been there 5 times. The park is getting more run down and you can tell the conditions are worsening. We won’t be back. They don’t even supply sunscreen anywhere in the park! Adventure Bay was really fun but we can find one just as good closer to home. Brick & Ivy Rooftop restaurant was great! Great food and customer service!

    Motel was below quality I experienced at other LaQuinta locations. It wasn't very nice around the outside of the property. Breakfast was nothing special at all. AND I am having a difficult time talking to a manager about incorrect charges that have occurred. I do not appreciate a charge and than another charge for $360 extra. I have not been able to speak to anyone who seems to be in charge of helping with the problem and I am upset.

    Altoona is just a honky-tonk amusement area.

    Altoona is just a honky-tonk amusement area. No landscaping, no sidewalks, massive bleak pavements, mechanical rides. Absolutely without charm. Kids and compulsive gamblers may like it. Others, stay away.

    Prairie meadows especially when the horses are running the casino in definitely worth going to most of the people are really nice Adventureland is still trying to get back on their feet but they're still well worth going to even though some of the rides are not operational right now but stay away from the Motel 6 right across the street from Adventureland they're going through a lot of Renovations and the means are not up to par with most Motel 6

    The cafe in the hotel was great! The variety of food options was good, we both liked what we got, prices were ok for where we were. The options for food in the casino and track area were great as well. Lots of things to do. It rained on the Saturday we were there and we still never left the property. The reason we went was for the horse races, didn't disappoint.

    Every stay we are pleased. It’s very quiet yet family friendly. The staff are always so nice and helpful even when I made a special request. Housekeeping does a fantastic job and always willing to help. This is our go-to place every time we stay in Altoona now

    Because the building is new, the ventilation was quieter than one usually finds in mid to lower cost hotels. The deskman was a simpatico guy, even at 1 AM.

    There is not really one aspect of the hotel that I liked a ton. Plenty of vending machines that weren't ridiculously priced would be one possibly.
