The room and pol was great we will be back! Down sides: our room stayed it would sleep 5, but two double beds only and there was an extra $20 charge for a roll-away for the 5th person. The breakfast didn’t have oatmeal, and only breakfast potatoes for the plant based people…but had good options for the meat and gluten eaters in my family!

Very nice property. We could tell a few parts were dated, but they've kept it very clean and nice. Loved the common area with the pool. Very clean, smelled nice. Breakfast was excellent!! Front desk gentleman was great-he remembered our names at checkout and gave us a wonderful history of Dubuque. Old Chicago is attached and open late!! Very nice, we would stay again.

If you stay there in the month of July, I would check to see if the youth baseball tournament kids are staying there. If they are, go somewhere else. Those kids run, wild and parents clearly don’t watch them and unfortunately, there isn’t enough staff to have people try to keep these kids in line and honestly it’s not the staffs responsibility. Next year if we stay here, we’re doing it during the week not on the weekend.

I would stay again

Location great. Breakfast great. The staff was extremely friendly. The room was clean. I was unhappy with front desk service upon arrival as things like Wi-Fi password and time and location of breakfast was not given to us. Also, our room was never cleaned during our three day stay. It didn’t really need to be Except we needed refills on things like toilet paper and coffee and we had to get those items ourselves. They do offer a discount on the future stays if you refuse cleaning service, but we never did and were never asked if we wanted to. That said, if I were to go to Dubuque again, I would go and stay at the same hotel.
