Romantic Hotels in Altoona, IA

"I would like to rate the staff higher however this is the second year I have had an issue with the housekeeping staff. My husband and I attend an event not far from this hotel around the same time every year. Because the event doesn’t start until later in the day, I asked for a late checkout. For $15 I was given until 1 pm. But even though I had a late checkout, the housekeeping staff began knocking on my door at 9 AM. I told them to go away, which means I’m obviously occupying the room and I had not checked out. They then knocked on my door at 10 AM which I said please go away. I have a late checkout. And then at 10:30, I could hear someone trying to use a key card to open the door without knocking. Luckily, I had locked the deadbolt. At 11 AM, I received another knock in which I walked up to the door and said please go away. I have a late checkout. Call the front desk. And then again at noon, they knocked on the door. At this point, I was very upset. I told the housekeeper to please go away, that I had a late checkout, and that she needed to call the front desk. She just stood outside my door until I walked back to it and told her if you don’t leave, I’ll call them and tell them you’re harassing me. Due to a health issue it is difficult for me to sleep. All of this made it impossible. I used to work in a hotel- this was ridiculous."

"Everything was excellent, nice check-in rooms clean !! Nice Bar/Restaurant next door to access 👍"

"Property looked and felt tired. Staff was ok - counter rep smoking outside entry upon arrival. Room was visibly clean but also looked tired - scuff marks, stains on chair cushion. "
