Nice bathroom counter. Broken shower, no water pressure but good conditioner. Bathroom fan loud and on with light but didn’t work what so ever, fogged up from 1 shower and never cleared. Entire room floor was damp/wet. Awful beds even worse pull out couch mattress my kids used. Hot tub was a joke a like warm bath is warmer. And only 1 jet even worked in the hot tub. Building clearly lacked maintenance. Definitely will NOT be staying there again. It was cool that it was off Morningstar drive.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities

Breakfast sparse. Hotel needs major update.

The bed and linens were comfortable. Bathroom had two 1/4 rolls of toilet paper, and maybe four tissues in the Kleenex box. Handicap shower was not adjustable had we been in a wheelchair. Outside shower wall was black with mildew. Breakfast choices on Sunday morning were sparse and mind you the hotel was booked solid per front desk. The sausage patties were soggy. The egg rounds were ok. Would have liked to have seen more options. Stayed at Sleep Inn in Ankeny, Iowa night before and the breakfast options and room cleanliness at that location were stellar. It was also a better rate.

Clean, quiet. As we were in the pool, a Staff member waked over and informed us we could not have bottled water in the pool area. Our bottled water was on a table in the pool area. We have never had anyone ever do that in the all the years we have traveled. Disappointing!

We arrived for a concert at the fair and the staff hooked us up with a shuttle so we didn't have to drive. They were pleasant and helpful being we were from out of town. The beds were comfortable after a long travel day and a night at the fair. We'd stay there again.

One night family trip

Check in was amazing! The front desk staff was very welcoming! Elevator was broken, which is not their fault. Room was the perfect size for our family! The air conditioning did not work very well and the room was pretty hot and stuffy. The kids loved the pool and hot tub. Breakfast was great! Overall a great stay!

Good but not great

Room aged but comfortable. Carpet and ironing board cover dirty. Toilet squealed loudly as it filled the tank with water. Bathroom door squeaked when opening and closing. Room service only if requested the night before. Elevator was out of service during our visit but we had first floor room. Personnel was awesome.
