"We were told the house was “cleaned” the day before we arrived. NOT TRUE. There was a dead misuse in the basement along with a bunch of filthy towels. The backdoor didn’t lock. The TV didn’t work. There was a used paper towel roll for use to use. We had the house for two days but left after the first night, the following morning as I was packing I saw a mouse run under the stove. Never again"

Stoney Creek Hotel Des Moines - Johnston

Stoney Creek Hotel Des Moines - Johnston

10/10 Excellent
"The room was affordable, clean, spacious, and charming. The staff were eager to be helpful. The fiberglass moose out front was “unique,” and the log cabin aesthetic was simple and charming, even if it was a bit “kitschy.” Loved it. Would stay here again."
