Grinnell trip for IAM farewell concert

we chose to stay in Grinell during the photo concert for my daughters. IAM trip to Europe. Shelly the front desk person gave us two options for rooms and was extremely accommodating for our needs. Breakfast was fresh and different every morning and we really enjoyed our stay. The pool was clean and met all of our needs.

Okay, Very Accommodating But Room Was Dirty

So we appreciated the fact that they were able to accommodate us and our cat when my son's car broke down, but the room they gave us, which they called a pet suite, smelled like animals and was dirty. The sheets gave my son a rash. It is fine to have specific rooms for pet owners, but they need extra cleaning in between guests.
