    The price of the hotel is modest and the accommodations match the price. Nothing too special, but nothing bad either. The breakfast was rather simple and standard, except for the gravy and biscuits (which I didn't try). I also didn't use the pool, though there were many families not staying in the hotel who would come and use the pool. The hotel worked […] fine for sleeping and heading off in the morning to the university. My only issue was the wifi, which would not let you log on for many, many attempts and then suddenly let you on. You had to click on a link to another website because the password itself didn't work on the login page (tried with two different browsers), but even that wouldn't let you on. And you'd face this issue every day when the connection was reset. Read more

    I was just looking for a place to spend the night, so i didn't want to break the bank, and i didn't care about amenities... The room was clean, which says alot, considering it was a smoking room (by choice), the beds were comfortable, and the flat screen TV worked flawlessly. Other than that i can't really comment, as i arrived at 11pm, and was gone […] by 6 the next morning. Now it's not the Ritz, but if i was passing through town again, this is where i will stay.

    Fairly convenient location. Pool, but no hot tub-the sauna is exactly that. Room type booked was unavailable, so I was upgraded to a king suite at no additional charge. Staff was VERY helpful and accommodating. Hotel was noisy, but there were a bunch of AAU basketball teams staying there. Coffee maker was missing in room. Room was fairly clean, but […] the faucet on the tub had a drip, and the last person in the room left the drain closed, so the tub was half full of water when we walked in. Breakfast was OK-fresh waffles, biscuits and gravy, and the normal hotel continental breakfast fare. Read more

    Overall, my daughter and I enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The hotel (especially our room) was very clean, and the breakfast was decent for an inexpensive night's stay. If we had wanted a large breakfast then we would have stayed at a more expensive hotel chain. I would stay there again.

    We were not in the hotel much but it provided a clean room, fridge and microwave. The hotel was booked to capacity but did not have a lot of noise traffic, that is always a plus. The free breakfast was o.k., same with the coffee. This is the second year we have stayed at this location as it is close to the ISU campus, but not so close that you would […] have to deal with a lot of campus car traffic. Read more

We used the guest washer for ball uniforms and it was quick and worked well. Room was quiet and bed was comfy. Breakfast was good for the price of the room--no complaints (didn't […] expect a full buffet). I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to others looking for a quiet, convenient place to sleep. Read more

    This was a great stay. Compared to surrounding hotels and motels, this had the best reviews in its rate class so I gave it a try. I was not disappointed! My father was the one who actually stayed and he is beyond his "stay-anywhere-as-long-as-it's-cheap" days. He was very happy with this hotel and so was I! It was clean and had friendly service when […] we arrived. I had called the hotel to check availability and they were going to charge more than Hotels.com offered so I booked it on here. Definitely recommend doing that! The only complaint is that the room coffee is terrible -- but that's a common theme at hotels! Read more
