The front desk clerk was very good. She was friendly and efficient. All the Good Mornings when I woke up made a wonderful start to my day. We were traveling with a dog and had no problems checking in.

A Last Minute Booking.

Very nice hotel. Elevator issue had us walking up the stairs to the third floor. A little exercise for us. One trip up and one trip down. Glad we did not have a second trip than it would of been a workout. The best part was the ice machines working well for a cold beverage. This is not a negative but a minor operational issue. We enjoyed our stay and will come back.

Do NOT stay here

We got here and checked in and at check in we were told the elevator wasnt working and the only room was on the 3rd floor, no discounts, no refunds. So we had to trudge our luggage up three flights of stairs. The room was almost 200 per night. I was furious. The room was clean, at least, we missed breakfast, the clerk was friendly enough.

Nice place.

Stayed one night. It is close enough to the city. Breakfast is a little better than most hotels that offer free breakfast. Room was clean and breakfast area was clean.

Quiet, Clean and Safe.

The location was right off the highway but it didn't look like I had to worry about my car in the parking lot or my personal safety. As a woman traveling solo those are things to think about. Also, even though there were many cars in the parking lot the hotel was very quiet. No slamming doors or people being loud. A very nice place to get some sleep after a long day of driving.

Stranded but good place to stay

We were stranded in Iowa due to car trouble, but luckily were near this hotel. There’s a good Cajun restaurant nearby. Coffee at this hotel breakfast is good Community Coffee, multiple varieties. Clean and quiet.
