"Clean, comfortable, and great bed!"

9.0

Really liked the cheese omelet! Could have salsa for the eggs, but otherwise it was fine. Of course the cinnamon rolls are "the bomb"! Also, the room was very clean and the sheets are so smooth...heavenly! Also, front desk, Karen, was great!

We liked pretty much everything! Would appreciate a complementary bottle of water like the Hampton does! 😉 We had to buy ours at your hotel for $2.00 a bottle.

"In the end, the warmth of the staff made this stay truly memorable."

10.0

The property did not disappoint. It was clean, well maintained, and an excellent value for the money. What truly made the stay exceptional, though, was the staff. I don’t know if it’s an Iowa thing, but everyone we interacted with was outstanding. From the gentleman who handled the breakfast service to every front desk clerk and the friendly, efficient housekeeping team, the staff made all the difference. Amazing service and genuinely warm, welcoming people.

If I had to point out anything, it would be the window in our room. It could use another round of weather-stripping, as it tended to whistle when the wind picked up. It wasn’t a major issue, just something that stood out in an otherwise excellent stay.
