The room itself was good, clean, bed was comfy, bathroom was clean, toilet needs some working on as you have to hold the flusher down for like 20 seconds for all your bodily contents to go down the toilet, the elevator by the back entrance smells like a homeless individual camped out in it for a while and the carpets needs replaced in that bad boy, also the back doors don’t stay locked for safety. We stayed for 3 days and the back door was never locked. The breakfast was good, tv worked fine. Internet didn’t work the first day, but the second day was fixed. Overall, it was okay.

Not a Quality experience.

Not so good. Excellent staff deserve a better hotel. They were very helpful. The facility is in poor shape. Finishes are tired and worn out. Out of date. Air was stale. Several check ins ahead of me had serious problems with their reservations. Staff had to negotiate difficult issues to satisfy customers expectations. The pool was out of order and unavailable, causing real issues for the many youth in town for competition at the Iowa Games who had expected to enjoy the pool.

Horrible stay - dirty room & bad customer service

Bugs in the room and in the bed. Room and bathroom was dirty, especiallythe shower. The hotel also had the nerve to charge my credit card before I and my other family members checked in that day. The credit card on file was just for the hold of the rooms. I had 3 rooms, and each family member was going to check in and pay with their own card. They would not change it when we checked in. Terrible customer service and not a good, reputable business model to not follow the policy of "pay at hotel" at the time of arrival. Just a terrible experience and I would never stay there again and would definitely not recommend!

Bathroom issues

Our room had an odd smell. Went into the bathroom and the bathtub/shower was moldy and chipped. Looking up, the ceiling had clearly leaked and there were large brown spots. Immediately requested a new room and staff were very accommodating. New room was much better. Clearly renovated but shower still had mold spots at the bottom.
