"While the hotel itself was very clean, comfortable beds, and located centrally, there were major issues with their plumbing and the toilets were not working. We couldn’t use our own bathroom we had to dress and walk down the hall to the lobby bathroom. Extremely inconvenient. They did have plumbers come in and we were not the only ones that had the issues as several others had complained. Other than that, the hotel itself was very nice, the beds were super comfortable and the staff was very nice."

"Close to ISU, typical American chain stores, American breakfast is useless, travel must have a car, parking is free, there is a small gas station next to the supermarket, and a subway and a DQ, which can solve the occasional need to fill the stomach. The gym is relatively small with only one treadmill. There is a refrigerator and a microwave, and there is no kitchen."
