    Great location, close to ISU. Good breakfast. Very nice, large breakfast area. Room was OK. Nothing special. Clean. Quiet. Refrigerator in room, no microwave. Would probably stay again, but might look for something a little nicer.

    The hotel was close to the college campus but had a quiet embodiment. The mini fridge and made left over restaurant food easy to keep. Overall spacious and welcoming. The front desk takes specific information about your car before you can park in their lot which guarantees you a spot later that night. The doors lock after a certain time and you have […] to get the night managers attention to let you in. Read more

    I have stayed here several times and really liked it. This time had a room on the second floor. Room over all was great, except the shower had no pressure. With this problem was able to shower just hard to rinse off and had to take extra time.Also had to use the sink to remove shampoo and conditioner from hair after shower. Again over all I like this […] hotel, just would book room on the first floor only and hope shower pressure is real good like past stays. Read more

    The Best Western University Park Inn & Suites provided a clean, comfortable room with the business traveler in mind - good work area in the room with free, fast WiFi and a reasonable hot breakfast. The only drawback was the rather poor fitness center. I definitely recommend this hotel for the price, quality, and location.
