Had multiple rooms booked here for robotics trip. Only 1 had a slight issue with a smell that emanated from it's bathroom and a divot in the floor but otherwise the rooms were good, clean and well kept. Desk attendants were kind and helpful. Relatively normal breakfast selection. Would definitely consider staying here again if in town.
Recently stayed for 3 nights and it was a good stay with great amenities. Breakfast variety rotated each morning with many options. It wasn’t great, but it was good enough. I appreciated the fitness room (24hrs). Pool was too cool for my preference, but was clean with towels available. Hot tub was not hot one morning but worked on other days. Try to time it by yourself - heavenly and a relaxing space to unwind until midnight! It’s in a great area with many restaurants nearby…ask for a room on the parking side if you’re a light sleeper. I am not, but could def hear road noise. Minus one star for a hard bed. Would def book again. Be well!
Room was great and beautiful. It was hot on that day and when I got to my room the A/C was on and the room was nice and cool. Breakfast was nice a self serve I was able to get enough for me and my guest. The hot tub in the room was great. King size bed was comfy I had no problems falling asleep. Bathroom looked beautiful and plenty of towels offered. There was an extra set of covers in the room as well so it was nice to have when my guest got too cold. I love this place and will stay here again if I visit Iowa again.
The hotel was very nice. Modern updated rooms. Pool and hot tub were great. Night check in staff was wonderful. Everything was clean and well kept. Nice location that was quiet. Breakfast was great. Nice selection of different foods. Will definitely come back to stay again!!
I was nervous about booking as so many mixed reviews. The guy at the front desk super nice and helpful. We talked to the maintenance guy Mark and he was working hard every time we seen him cleaning non stop. The kids had a blast in the pool and hot tub. Room was big and clean. Breakfast was good. We would stay here again if in the area
Great hotel. Room was very clean. The gentleman at front desk was friendly and they even message me to let me know to reach out if I needed anything. It was quite inside and out of the hotel. Neighborhood seemed to be safe and quiet as well. Here for work and will be back.
Cavle was out but it was a local issue. The rooms were nice and the hot tub and pool were clean and honestly a great experience. The breakfast was decent. Hot sausage and eggs and a waffle
Great hotel, super clean. Staff was very nice. They were shorthanded in staffing, but the did a great job. Close to where I needed to be. Really good price for all the amenities. Felt safe. Good parking.
