Check-in was a piece of cake. Even though renovations are in progress, the hotel is clean and quiet. The room is comfortable and well equipped. Access to the Casey's Center is super easy. This is a great place to stay if you are attending an event there.

Must read review before

The hotel was being renovated and the room felt old and dirty. The halls were not worthy of being open for guests. The carpet was old and used as a construction site. Hard to believe the city would allow this. Hotels.com nor the hotel chain informed me and had to find out by showing up. Not fair to the customer.
