Pros +
- Are stay at the Ankeny IHG was great as always! The staff is friendly, it is very clean, and the breakfast is delicious. Beds are super soft and it was a very quiet and relaxing atmosphere. We will definitely stay there again if work calls me to this area.
- The microwave and fridge in room
- The hotel was clean and the free breakfast was actually pretty good.
Cons -
- The toilet paper
- I didn't like paying almost $200 for a room on a Saturday night.
