It was close to the major road and cars driving noisy and no privacy open to a coffee chop you open your room and you see strangers in the drive through. On the block facing your room. . And there were flies all through the night donât know where they were coming from.
We were very upset. This was our anniversary trip and we went for a Hawkeye game. We still paid quite a bit for a 2 night stay.
The service was amazing I will give them that. Also great location. But this hotel is awful. I know it is a motel, so I wasnât expecting fancy or nice. But it was extremely dirty, uncomfortable, you could hear EVERYTHING. We saw several roaches and killed one for proof. The bed was rock hard and squeaked at the tiniest movement. It was extremely dirty. We couldnât stay in that motel our last night, so we packed up and had to drive all the way home our second night and missed out on a fun night out in Iowa city because we didnât sleep our first night there, and because it was roach and whatever else infested. Under the bed is also extremely dirty and dusty. So how could we stay in that? It ruined our anniversary. We will not be back. Requesting a refund. Bummed out. :/
Iâve stayed in cheap run down motels before, nothing compares to this. They should be shut down.
Clearly prostitution and drug dealing and violent activity. Disgusting room with our first room having dirty bedsheets with trash in them, the next room they gave to us after we complained, had a dirty rag with a substance on it, and a big dark pee stain all along the head and down of the mattress. Gross floors, sinks look like theyve been cut up. Truly gross looking old men all around the area. Not a safe feeling environment at all. Staff could be a lot more friendly.
If youâre looking at this hotel, youâre trying to do the calculus of whether the low price is worth what you expect will be a substandard hotel. I say that to clarify I had very reasonable expectations for what this hotel would be. But itâs way worse than youâre thinking, so I would advise you to find somewhere else.
