"We stayed here on a trip for the Knoxville Nationals. Went to the John Wayne Museum, seen the bridges. The house is a nice house, met many locals at the pharmacy-resturaunt in the square downtown, very friendly, ate at several other local spots, all good service and food. The area is quiet and the house in great shape, clean, had plenty of towels and comfortable beds. Would definitely recommend if you need a place in this area. "

Charming Iowa Abode Near Knoxville Raceway!

"There are no pet friendly hotels in Knoxville so we were very happy to find this pretty house for our stay when back for a family funeral. Pros: ample parking, good location, very clean, large space, nice kitchen, large yard, DISH TV, pet friendly, rapid response from owner, sleeps multiple people Cons: sleeps multiple people but only 1 key provided, couches don’t face TV, 2 BRs have no doors so there is privacy only for people in upstairs BR, outlet in basement bath not working "

Top Central Iowa Hotel Reviews

Ramada Tropics Resort & Conf Center by Wyndham Des Moines

8/10 Good

"Rooms were mostly clean, but there was obvious aging and damage to the walls over the years. Pools were ok, but there were several spots that hadn’t been cleaned in a long time. Bathrooms around the pool were almost all missing toilet paper in the dispensers, so they had large rolls that were set on top - very difficult to use, especially for kids."

Drury Inn & Suites West Des Moines

10/10 Excellent

"The breakfast was fabulous and the happy hour/kickback food was also terrific! The location is superb, we will definitely be back! Hopefully the next time we visit they will have both elevators running. It got a little tight with just one elevator at the busy time in the morning as people were checking out."
