Waited in our car for hours before being allowed to checkin because of the crazy early checkin fees they have. Area around the hotel is in desperate need of repair and sprucing up.

The decor and amenities like the pool, bar, snack shop are unique and trendy. It’s a cool place to hang out— more quiet than downtown and more character than Coralville.

No phone in room...alright...but...they leave a telephone number to contact the front if needed. The recording states leave your room number and phone number they will call you back. After 3 calls in a two hour time...still no call back. That's poor service. Overall customer service is under welming, the only bright light in customer services is the young man that runs the snack shack

The rooms are a little beaten up-chips in woodwork, paint scuffed, bathroom outdated except fancy hardware. However, the pool is wonderful, and the arcade is a lot of fun. The public areas of the hotel are in great shape.

Some old hotels shouldn't be rehabbed. This is one of them. A hideous 70's building tarted up with lots of black....too creepy for me!

Hotel is pretty clean. Halls do smell like old hotel. Place is huge and felt like a ghost town checking in. Staff was very nice. It is an old Marriott that has has some remodeling. Beds were white/clean/ comfortable but carpet seems older. There are no conveniences nearby such as restaurants etc. Didn’t stay for breakfast.

Nothing special. Weekend workers rude. Payment for breakfast on Sunday. No reasonable breakfast on Sunday for this pre- payment. Car lights shining directly into rooms as leaving hotel from 12 to 3 am. Not a good look for a place that sells place to sleep.

My family truly enjoyed staying here. The retro fun feel of hotel was so much fun, the pool and hot tub were fantastic, and the breakfast in the morning put every other hotel breakfast to shame. Seriously, the banana bread oatmeal and the breakfast potatoes were amazing. Also there is a lot of outdoor space to hang out on a beautiful day and the staff were all great.

Old property with some updates but still has older feel. Red Stains on counter in room we couldn’t wipe off. 🙁. Pillow top mattress is not that. Bathtub is olde and stained. Pool area nice. However the building seems staff less and you had to look hard to find them. No breakfast bar during week—grab and go. Wouldn’t stay here again. I think it is supposed to be a historic property but not that historic

The staff was accommodating and friendly! Always answered questions without making my 12 year old son or I feel like an inconvenience. The hotel is beautiful and spacious. But there was one thing that I seen in the reviews which was the cleanliness of the pool. That is true. The walls definitely need a good scrub down. People have made smiley faces and wrote “Hi” in the scum. The water was clean and warm. There are two things that The Highlander heavily advertises which is the arcade and the courtyard. There were several arcade games that don’t work so if you are looking to play nostalgic games such as Frogger or PacMan there were out of order. The courtyard is advertised as having a fire pit and there wasn’t one. They do offer a brunch buffet on Sundays. Children over the age of 10 are charged as an adult which is around $33. The hot complimentary breakfast that is offered the other days is the best I have ever had! Delicious!

Thank you so much for taking the time to let us know about your stay. We apologize for falling short on the specific items you mentioned. I do want to let you know that as of this week we have already corrected the arcade games and today the pool was deep cleaned to eliminate the film. We are hopeful that these few hiccups will not hold you back from coming to see us again. We LOVE to entertain! All the best,Highlander Hotel Team

We liked that the pool was large and so was the hot tub. Busy weekend, so it was loud but quieted down after 11pm. Our specific room had cracks in the ceiling and the wood veneer was falling apart. Didn’t expect that for the price we paid. Otherwise, staff was friendly, pool was in good condition, and the breakfast was fabulous.

There was zero supervision and regulation of rules in the pool area. We were looking forward to the 9-10pm break from the chaotic children in the pool but they did not leave the area and were both swimming and in the common pool area through the duration of the adult time. Additionally, there was some sort of fiber or foreign substance floating throughout the pool when we attempted to enter. We decided it was too filthy and left the area instead. Our stay wasn’t at all what we expected or what was advertised. Highly disappointed.

Appreciated that the window screen in the room was white, so that it didn’t darken the room when the lights were on, but at night a bright glare appeared all around the screened window which made it difficult to sleep. Would have preferred dark curtains to pull which would have closed off outside light from the parking lot. Also heard a dog barking much of the night from an adjoining room. The public rooms of the hotel were hip and fun spaces. It was convenient to Iowa City downtown. Not sure whether we’ll try it again.

The pool was nice, despite being very crowded. The hot tub was closed much to our disappointment. The rooms and facilities didn't seem nearly as newly renovated as the pictures would have you believe. The "restaurant" consisted of a bar and a handful or tables in a corner behind it. My friends and I were very confused, thinking this can't possibly be the right place? The service was so absolutely slow I nearly couldn't believe how slowly the girls behind the bar were moving. Zero sense of urgency, even considering several people were waiting to be helped and visibly irritated. All in all it was an okay experience, but not a place I would recommend to anyone else.

This hotel is a super fun stay. It has a minimalist style, but the hotel itself is pretty neat. I didn’t get to use the amenities other than the free soda and room service. The food was decent, and well priced. My only drawbacks were the minimalist style; which didn’t give me any seats to relax in. Otherwise it’s a great hotel and a place I would return to if I ever do a road trip again. -Staff was very kind and helpful -Food was well priced -Huge Pool -Breakfast Buffet with the usual options -Beds are super comfy !!!One caution: they charged me three times for my one night stay and I had to call and have two of the charges removed. They were very courteous and quick about correcting it, but I would advise checking your account during and after your stay. This was during a major snowstorm which could have contributed to the error.

A lovely staff. We stayed during a blizzard. No elevators and 2nd floor room did not work well for us. Apparently you do not want to draw older people, who actually appreciated and understand all the cool 60’s and 70’s touches. In the bathroom the stool was short, like I would expect in a grammar school. Breakfast was nice. Beautiful pool area and party room. The arcade and bar were very good. A lot of games which the kids loved. We had a fun time!

The hotel itself, the lobby, and our room were all great. The service from every staff member we interacted with was excellent. My only loss of stars is because of the pool area. Online, this huge pool area with a large hot tub and snack bar was the mIn reason we chose this hotel over others. But we were disappointed to see the pool area very dirty; gross hairballs all over the floor, nasty floaters in the hot tub and pool, and wet messes in slippery floor everywhere. We’d hoped to see the outdoor space and courtyard, but it didn’t seem to be open. So that was disappointing. Everything else about the hotel was great.
