Just what we needed for one overnight in Mason City. The pool was quiet and clean, the room was clean with great a/c, and breakfast had several good choices. I would definitely stay here again.
Everything in my room was brand new and beautifully detailed. I needed a hair dryer and the one in the room was top notch. I needed an iron and that worked excellent! Bathroom was new and well detailed with a beautiful lighted mirror and good quality all the way. Only one complaint was the keurig, it was almost new but i always run a cup of water first and it came out light brown so i ran a few more cups of just water before using a k-cup. Also...the free breakfast was excellent with a lot of variety and delicious food and two fancy coffee machines that grind the beans fresh! Excellent!
So this was a very nice place to stay. The restaurant next door has the best mexican food we have ever had. Within walking distance. The pool was nice and warm, great for little ones. The room was clean except for a razor that was left in the tub from previous people. Which to me says the tub wasnt cleaned. However it still smelled clean and looked clean. The beds were a bit hard, but overall i would give a 4 out of 5 rating.
Easy check in, needed to ask for linens for pull out couch, but that is the only complaint. The lady that was working the front desk at check in was very friendly, always had a smile on her face and was apologetic if there was any minor inconvenience (such as the sheets).
