First, we reserved an accommodation room, When we arrived there were none. When we at room to find it open with the bar lock and the couch bed half opened and unable to close with the cushions on top. Tried to leave to tell clerk but door wouldn't lock so we had to leave someone behind to watch our stuff. Clerk was helpful but next room the keys only work on the 16th try. If you open the refrigerator it slides on the floor towards you. One remote for two TV's. Would not recommend.

Friendly staff and location great. Property more run down than when we stayed last (2 years ago). Workout room minimal and a sauna. Rooms dirty (stuff all over chairs) and could use some paint.

Decent hotel for a good price that was close proximity to the ISU stadium. However, our suite was not stocked with basic supplies including linens or toiletries. Otherwise, a good experience and would probably stay there again.

They gave me a room that was one bed short of what I reserved for my family of 6. While polite and apologetic, no attempt to rectify mistake was made, other than allowing me to cancel. I was able to get a room at Staybridge Suites last minute and my family had a great experience there.
