Liked: Staff & service
My bed was comfortable and I had a good nights sleep. The bathroom was clean but dusty. Needed attention to detail for it to be excellent. Eg. the radiator was rusty. The toilet seat was a yellowing white, so even though it was probably clean it did not look clean. Another choice for breakfast would have been appreciated. I am allergic to eggs but there was no substitute

A pleasant and comfortable stay

My friend and I stayed one night because we were in town to compete in a game. The bnb was perfect! Kelly was so welcoming and made us feel right at home. The mansion has so much character and history. I would 100% stay here again.

My daughter and I had a lovely overnight stay at the Weis Mansion. Our hosts were friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. They were able to accommodate my daughter ‘s food allergy for our breakfast, which was delicious. The bed was very comfortable and there was a refrigerator and microwave just outside our bedroom. There were tea and snacks for us to have anytime. We were in and out in one night on a car trip so we did not get a chance to explore Waterloo. The mansion itself is in an older part of town and some of the nearby buildings showed their age, but the neighborhood was quiet at night and we felt safe and secure. We parked on the street right outside the mansion and had no concerns.

This is a beautiful property. A better alternative to a hotel stay in the area. The owner provides a breakfast one would never receive at Motel 6 or the Hilton. She uses locally sourced ingredients and the results are amazing. Our room was beautiful and the linens were wonderful. The Weiss House will definitely be my first choice next year for UNI weekend. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay! The live your family has put into the restoration of this historic home. We definitely felt the love! Shannon *traveled from San Diego*
