My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms, though a bit dated in design with the sink outside the restroom, were comfortable and spacious. The front porch with wicker chairs was a nice touch for relaxation, but the dustiness was a minor letdown. The service was excellent, with friendly and helpful staff going out of their way to assist us. The location was perfect for my activities near Iowa State University, providing a convenient and enjoyable stay. Dining offered good options, although there were some issues with supervision. The facilities were well-maintained, ensuring a satisfying experience.

The hotel had everything we needed, with simple and clean rooms, along with a unique pump-like spout on the sink. The view wasn't overlooking the parking lot, which was a plus, but it did have some maintenance issues. The service was top-notch and friendly, making our entire experience very pleasant. The location was perfect, right off US 30 and close to the university. However, the dining options were somewhat limited, offering the usual continental fare. The facilities were well-maintained, and overall it was a safe choice for the area.
