The spot is convenient to the stadiums for ISU sports. Rooms were clean and the front desk was friendly. We had a great stay. Beds were comfortable and everything we did on the weekend was minutes away.

6/10

Graduation weekend in a University town drove hotel prices into crazy range (typical is $120 - we paid this weekend $450) rice in no way is in perspective with the accommodation. Pretty old hotel, all amenities in working order, but old and outdated. Highlight is the 24h coffee automatic in the lobby. This is splendit. The individually wrapped coffee plastic cups reminded of Covid times- also not necessary in my mind. Beds were clean and comfortable.
