Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
We were told there would be an elevator but upon arrival not available. My spouse has breathing issues so stairs and long hallway to room was too much for him. We asked to see our room. Bed was not a queen, room and bath was very tiny. Not at all what the pictures showed. Everything was very disappointing. We did not stay.

This historical hotel was incredibly beautiful. We stayed on the 3rd floor but the elevator was out of order. Just a slight inconvenience. All the furniture in the suite was antique and was very nice but a comfortable sitting area with a couple pieces of more modern furniture would have been nice.

First off, there is no restaurant or bar, and no breakfast that we were aware of. The staff was friendly, room was clean and quiet. The bed needs to be replaced as it sagged in the middle. Good water pressure and temp in the shower. For the price, I give 3 stars. I love historic buildings, but this hotel definitely could use some TLC.

The building is beautiful inside and may become a nice place to stay some day. They still have a lot of work to do to get there. All the wood trim outside hasn't seen a coat of paint in years. The plumbing fixtures (faucets and shower heads) look very cheap.

Maquoketa, Decker Hotel

We stayed on the second floor although, there was an elevator, there were many steps to our room. The room was vintage. The continental breakfast was lacking. The bathroom was clean. The temperature in the room was adjustable and worked well. The temperature outside was warm during the day and cool at night.

This old historic hotel is a gem. The manager upgraded us to a beautiful suite with a king size bed without my asking. Super spacious with a jacuzzi tub. Bed was comfy and so were the pillows. Hotel is in the heart of the old downtown in Maquoketa. Great place to stay if you’re visiting the caves. Frig, microwave and Keurig coffee maker in the room. The only disappointment was breakfast. No pastries, breads or juice. Very small selection, but we made do. Overall a wonderful place to stay.

Nice historic place.

Nice historic hotel. Would have liked a little more of a breakfast and didn’t find an ice machine. Had an elevator to get to the 3rd floor. Would stay again.

Amazing room. Interesting hotel.

Our room was amazing! It was one of the most amazing rooms I’ve ever stayed in. There is no restaurant or bar, even though it’s in the name. The breakfast was simple but ok.

The staff was very friendly - greeted us everytime we walked in. And helpful by carrying our suitcase up the steps. It is an older building so the rooms are smaller but we expected that and enjoyed the individual charm and the coziness. There was a Mexican restaurant on the same block which was nice to walk to and the food was good.
