The rooms are very outdated but clean. No “extras” such as charging ports for electronics. Very basic. Reminds me of the 1970s hotel rooms we had on family vacations

For a 2 star hotel, it was average. There’s a strong musty smell in the hallway, less or so in the room. Ice machine was out of order. Breakfast was cold cereal and hard boiled eggs only. Coffee was OK but no juice offered.

Trust your gut on this one!

Expectations were not high, I’ll start off there - but we were attending a wedding in Adair and the hotel was conveniently 4 minutes from the venue. Opted for that convenience, however, everything that has followed as a result has been nothing but an inconvenience. Room was dirty, dust on almost every surface, stained carpets, broken toilet lid, AC/heater did not work, but I figured it’s fine - it’s just a night. After returning to the hotel after the wedding reception we got into our pajamas and got into bed. As I was scrolling on my phone in bed I saw a bug crawl across the blanket on my chest - immediately leaped out of bed, told my daughter to get out of bed, and after finding the bug and taking a picture, then googling what bed bugs look like, we packed up our things and were gone. Now I’m washing every piece of clothing we packed with us, vacuuming out luggage and my car, and feeling like I’d rather set everything on fire because I’m so disgusted. I called the front desk this morning to notify them and was told they would “Check it out”. Based off of their reaction and lack of apology, I’m fairly certain this is just par for the course here. Do yourself a favor and drive to Stuart or West Des Moines if you’re needing a hotel near Adair. I promise you the convenience of it being close is NOT worth it!
