I was in town for 2 nights for a wedding. I was traveling alone so I chose to go the cheaper route and stay here instead of the hotel the wedding party had recommended. I needed to check in early so I called ahead to ask if that was possible; the man on the phone (Ben?) said it would be... More

We had driven many hours, and were looking for a resonable place to stay. This hotel was in a Roomsaver's magazine we picked up at the welcome center. It turned out to be great. Good, clean room, firm mattress, desk clerk that should be the manager someday. His name was Matt, and we didn't believe him when he said it... More

We have been on the road for 6 weeks and this was the worst night sleep we have had the whole trip. At night, the night office worker had the tv on loud and stayed in the office talking to others. Finally at midnight I called to complain and it still took over an hour to settle down and I... More

This is an older hotel that has been updated, but still showing its age. I have had stay here more times than I can remember and there will be more. The pool and fitness room are nice but you have to go over to the sister hotel. The staff knows there stuff and is very accommodating. More

I stayed here a few days while working in the Cedar Falls area. I did'nt think it was as bad as some on here are saying. I stayed on the second floor on the back side of the building. It is true that it has been remodeled or such as to close in the outside walkway that it used to... More

From the looks of the motel, it was once a "Holiday Inn" that had balcony access to all the rooms. It's now enclosed, so the windows that once looked out on the parking lot now look out on to a hall. This motel has strange moldy smells, discolored walls, dirty curtains, and leaking faucets--everything needed to get you on the... More

This is a recycled hotel that used to have exterior access to each room. This Days Inn put a facade on the front, but the rooms still have huge windows which face out; slightly strange because you don't want people looking into your room from the hallway, but then you don't have any natural day light or fresh air. At... More

This is an older hotel that I am guessing originally had exterior doors and they enclosed it at some time. The room was relatively clean but in general was dark/musty smelling. There were no windows that could be opened to let in fresh air. There was about a two inch ledge/step to get into the room and at least one... More
