Clean, quiet, convenient.
We stayed for close to a week while visiting family. It was an easy location for us to be and perfect for a family of four. Looks like there will be even more room there once the basement is finished.

Perfect for College Visit
My son and I stayed here for an Admitted Students Day at U of Iowa. The accommodations were extremely comfortable and close to campus — also Hawkeye-themed! Stacey was very receptive with messages, even helping us find a place for takeout pizza. For our first time in Iowa, our stay was perfect, would definitely stay here again.
