Luxe hotels in East Central Iowa

'The building was very clean and was nicely decorated/furnished. Staff were friendly. I don't wish to add a negative, but the advertised "heated pool" was actually "cold." It was a bummer, as my husband and I were celebrating our 23rd anniv. and haven't been swimming in ages. I mentioned it to the desk host; she said it's kept at a steady 85 degrees but that she would mention it to the maintenance department. The hotel is lovely overall. (Except the pool - well it's actually an inviting, clean...

'Refrigerator not working. In-room safe not working. I wanted to stay in the city center, thinking I could easily walk to some nice restaurants. The area is dying, with many stores and restaurants closed. I ended up ordering a salad at the hotel and ate in my room. I'd stay on the outskirts if I ever pass that way again. '

'Very pleasant surprise how nice the pool area was. Staff even delivered drinks to us in the hot tub. Overall excellent hotel!!!!'

'Very friendly and helpful!'

'Don't bother with the breakfast coupons. Didn't save me any money and was a hassle. Some days they would and some days they would not give me a free drink with breakfast. Just buy breakfast where you want, instead of paying for a coupon'

'Very very nice! Close to a walking trail. Excellent security. Was VERY quiet. Parking garage $10 a night and a bit of a walk to hotel. Also would have been quite nice to have coffee in the lobby '

'Front desk staff was amazing. Checking in was seamless! Breakfast was bountiful and staff attentive. Pool area was clean. Would stay here again with no problem. '

'Great'
