The room was clean but laced basic amenities like cups in the room or an alarm clock. I was staying by myself and the room met my expectations for the price. The room was noisy as it was only a sidewalk distance away from a busy street.

Clean and convenient. Lots of utilities. Well laid out. Big fridge.

Deborah was awesome! Rooms were nice and clean, comfy bed/pillows. They seemed like they were recently remodeled and nice. AC unit old and very noisy and inefficient. Overpriced for the quality and location on very noisy and busy street. Property not well maintained and trash and weeds all around the property. Breakfast was a joke-looked like they ran to a local convenience store to grab something. Need to update and upgrade the breakfast.

Customer Service was not good. Never had to ever put down a deposit. Then she had an attitude when checking us in.

AC in room did not work. Front desk person was not very attentive.

The rooms were good, clean, and updated. But shower water pressure was a little more than a dribble. Air conditioner died on 1st day, room was upper 80s when we got back from a long day in the sun. The continental breakfast was the worst i have ever seen, and i travel A LOT. Bread was days old, the gravy was never changed out in two days sitting in a broken crockpot, eggs are frozen patties, etc. Good: very near blue 3 bus line that goes straight to the University, good price for the area. lots of restaurants and shopping near by. If you are in town to catch a game, or move kids in or out of ISU it is serviceable.

The outside of the building could use a refresh but the rooms were newly remodeled and clean. The staff was very nice and helpful.

Wr stayed here to sleep - late night arrival for an overnight rest before family gathering preceding funeral. Inexpensive and close to destination were criteria for choice. We chose 2 separate single rooms. Clean and comfortable beds were nice. Since both of our rooms were "adjoining" another room with unknown occupants, the arrangement was slightly unusual. My experience of waking at 4 am to very loud screaming turned out to be a horror movie playing at full volume in the adjoining room. So goes the learning curve...note to self - make sure adjoining room is occupied by the rest of my travel group!

I arrived at the hotel and found it was under construction, which was not indicated on the listing.
The lobby was disgusting and i didn't stay. I left without checking in. I tried to cancel my stay but the app wasn't working.
I emailed the hotel to tell them about my dissatisfaction and request a refund. I got no response.

The lobby had a very strange smell, Like some kind of food. The staff was friendly. The rooms were actually a nice surprise based on the outdatedness of the lobby. The beds were very comfortable but our tub did not drain. I told the desk and they said theyd gave it fixed but it still didn’t drain this morning.
Breakfast was not utilized because there were only 2 tables in there and I think the staff was sitting in one of them , and the other was occupied. There was no other seating so we had a coffee to go.
All in all it was ok.

March 2024- under construction, heat didn’t work in the room, my mom who has to use a walker had to use stairs to get to second floor bc there was no elevator. Continental breakfast was pitiful. Hopefully people have a better experience once they’re construction is done.

Although room was refreshed, my wife refused to stay there because of construction work in rest of the building - she sensed mold, etc from construction work. She has a high sensitivity. the site should have stated that rooms are cheap because among construction but it didnt
4.0
The room was old and in disrepair. There was no working electrical outlet in the bathroom. There was construction going on at all hours of the day and night just above and just beside my room - even on the weekend. There were some creepy people roaming around the halls. I elected to check out early due to all these things, and the manager refused a refund for the 4 remaining days on my reservation. I had to escalate it multiple times to Expedia before I was finally given a refund. Awful experience there! I would not recommend at all!

The staff was decent but had issues with verifying the check in process. The TV in my room didn't work and the door lock (not the deadbolt) was broken off. I dont remember off hand if they offer a "continental breakfast" in hotel description, but if they do, they shouldn't.

The breakfast was sub par.

Didn’t have the king bed room we booked. Power strip to TV/fridge was off so couldn’t use the fridge because it smelled so bad. The heating and cooling system in the room was shot off so it was freezing when we got there. Very old hotel with much needed updates. Super disappointed.
2.0
The place is old and run down. Water spots on the ceiling with bowls to catch water in the lobby kitchen. The breakfast was toast/muffins and oatmeal- pretty disappointing. The room is old and worn out. The towel bars were rusty. We switched rooms because there was a dirty sock in the first room. Sheets had stains on them and there was mold in the bathroom.
4.0
My room was clean but smelled like mildew and smoke. The ice machine was on the other side of my wall and I could hear people getting ice at all hours of the night. One of the exterior doors was outside my room as well and people were entering and leaving through it at all hours of the night as well. Not to mention the stairs were also very noisy. When these things were not being accessed the refrigerator in the room was extremely loud. Needless to say my sleep was very poor. I would not recommend nor stay at this hotel again for the price I was charged.
3.0
It is just ok. Kind of dumpy, kind of not. Very low level breakfast. They should just not offer breakfast. Darn near false advertisement.

The quality of the room and finishes are below bad. My wife would not stay at this facility, so I am glad she did not stay. Or join me on this trip.

This property is DISGUSTING! Smelly, unclean, hair in beds, dirty and filthy. Staff accused me of being a smoker and a thief. First room we were given, bathroom was leaking and floor was wet - slip hazard?!? Second room we were moved to- bathroom sink does not drain. Nothing to hold toilet paper roll so none was opened, no hangers provided on hanging area, dusty and hair covering most surfaces, bed linens NOT CLEAN!!!
This is the WORST place I have ever stayed AND they charged me an extra $100 for “incidentals” - that’s when I was accused of being a smoker and told I’d o steal anything that fee would “cover” the theft. I am APPALLED and how rudely I have been treated! I feel discriminated against and racially profiled. My father - who is staying with me - is in his 80’s yet had to climb stairs to get to the room - NON ADA COMPLIANT building!
If there was availability anywhere else, I would stay there! This is totally UNACCEPTABLE!!

They double charge you PLUS an extra $100 incase you make a mess…then they saw the double charges “are just pending”. They take the money out of your acct..it’s NOT just pending!! They guy is stealing your money for a few days , making money on your over payment….and the. He said he will Reimburse you! What garbage!!! NEVER STAY HERE AGAIN!!!!
