Not enough power outlets. There are a lack of electrical outlets in the room. The bed table in the room had no electrical outlets. i brought my own power-strip in order to plug in both my phone and my computer at the desk.

Good and bad. The bed was pretty low quality -- despite the lovely four poster aspect, the mattress was too soft. I have back problems and ended up sleeping on the floor. The water faucet squirted all over the place every time we turned it on, soaking the mirror and counter. We had to request bedding for the pull-out sofa. Once received, the bedding lacked sheets. When I went back to the front desk to let them know, the concierge had walked away and left a phone number. Understandable in such a small hotel, but annoying because now it was late and we had no sheets. One good thing was the small bar/restaurant on the premises. They had a very good jazz trio, and the food was very good, both dinner and the free breakfast in the morning. The hotel was a beautiful building, but they need to work out the kinks.

Had the best night sleep at Hotel Grinnell, during artic blast snow storm. The temperature was -9 with a wind chill of negative -25. The heat wasn't working enough to keep the building warm, but management made sure people that needed it had a space heater. Shower water was hot. Thank goodness the pipes didn't freeze. Love the double head rain fall showerhead. This is my 2nd time staying at this property, and I have already made my next reservation. I would go out of my way to stay at this hotel.

There was no one at the front desk when we arrived. They said they would email the final bill to me, it never came. The breakfast was lame. There are much better options in town. It was expensave for the services we received, The employees were not friendly.

Since I haven't been traveling much lately, I wanted to stay someplace nice--and Hotel Grinnell definitely was that. Since they repurposed an old school into a hotel, they used a school theme throughout. Rooms are a wonderful mix of new and old--nice, clean modern styling, but with the wonderful old hardwood floors from days gone by. Other guests made the same comments as I did, "This place is cool!"

Everything was great! Very clean. Hallway on the third floor had a strange smell but not terrible. The shower has the new style with half of a door (no curtain) which is nice except the rain shower a hole that sprayed sideways and flooded the floor. The free breakfast was perfect. We were going to go to the restaurant the night before for an appetizer and have nachos but they were $25! Overall a very nice hotel but not sure it's worth the price. It is also strange that no one is at the front desk, you have to call them on the phone. If the price was much lower, I would stay again

Very charming hotel, converted from a former Junior High School. Retains much of the original wooden and tile flooring,just adds to the overall charm of the place. Staff very helpful and the free breakfast was delicious.
