Misleading

We stayed at this hotel because it had good reviews on hotels.com, but didn’t see the one’s on Google. We pulled up and the hotel didn’t have a sign, just a banner saying “Dubque Inn & Suites”, not even spelling Dubuque correctly. The lobby was fine and the check in went smooth. They only gave us one working key and when we got to the room, we found a tub full of black mold and a toilet that was so shaky, we thought it was going to fall over. The room smelled so bad and just felt really unsafe. We ended up leaving and getting a new hotel for the night, where we felt safer.

Skip this stay

This hotel is not worth the price. The room wasn't necessarily dirty, but everything is old. Towels are frayed, curtains and shower curtain have holes and runs in them. Scratches in the paint where furniture has been rubbing it and repairs were made but not patched up properly. The phone did not dial out. There is no clock. The TV is small and fuzzy. The remote only worked sometimes. The shower didn't drain until after you were done showering and maintenance does not work on Saturdays to fix it. We heard every movement from the upstairs neighbor. The mattresses are very old, worn out, and uncomfortable. Not enough towels or pillows for the amount of people in our reservation. The room smells musty. On the plus side: they let us check in early. Hot water and good water pressure. A/C works. Good location for restaurants and shopping.

Highly disappointed

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my recent stay was honestly disappointing. The room was not up to standard in terms of cleanliness or upkeep. The ironing board had a large, noticeable stain that was both unsightly and unhygienic- definitely not something you’d expect in a hotel that’s supposed to be professionally cleaned between guests and “newly” remodeled. Even worse, the bathroom had visible wall damage next to the toilet with tiles falling off the wall. The trim was cracked and peeling, which gave the entire space a neglected feel. In the shower, the tub and soap dispensers had body hair all other- it was very gross. The shower head was covered in pink scum, it honestly appeared as if the shower had never been cleaned. It’s small details like these that make a big difference, especially when you’re paying to stay somewhere that should provide comfort and cleanliness. It’s clear that maintenance and quality checks are being overlooked. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and invests more effort into basic standards of hygiene and room care. Until then, I wouldn’t recommend staying here.

Good Location

This property seems to be undergoing renovation under new ownership. Our room had nice features like new carpeting and flooring, but tub had mold stains around the top where it connected with the wall and the sink had rusty stains in the bowl. The breakfast was delicious but was served on styrofoam dishes. Definitely not eco friendly. No one was at the front desk at check in time as the staff member had not arrived and we needed to wait to check into our room. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The hotel was very close to the areas we wanted to explore.

Room was relatively clean as was the lobby. Internet service was not available in the room, was informed that they were working on it. The "breakfast" was less than the average hotel breakfast. Coffee was weak and biscuits and gravy were cold but the waffles were good. Overall the stay was a bit bellow average.

The staff at the hotel was very helpful. Breakfast was on the skimpy side...but we had lots of traveling baseball families in the hotel...so lots of guests to feed. The hotel is older and the staff is continually working on it to keep it maintained. I use the exercise room and was happy to have a treadmill with free weights as well. The pool was older but still very nice.

Horrible hotel! Booked 3 rooms. Horrible mold in all bathrooms. Hotel is run down and showing its wear. I booked because of the good reviews, but this is not the case. I addressed the mold situation as soon as I saw it, and front desk just told me hotel is full there is nothing they could do. Stay away!

Family visit, had three nights here. The hotel was rated higher than it should be. I'd give it a 7. Definitely a money saver. Older hotel. People gave great service with a smile. The pool was small but still nice and clean and kept up well. The breakfast was okay. Location decent.
