We stayed at the Bluffs Inn during a visit to our daughter at Luther College. It was the only hotel in town that had a room - now I know why. When we arrived we were told that our room would cost $10 more than the price which was quoted on the phone. Since there was no place else to stay - we had no choice but to take the room. We were also asked, upon check in, if we had been told that the room we would be using had no window. I have never been asked this before. And, indeed, it had no window - at least not one to the outside. It did have a window that looked upon a blackened, abandoned staircase. It was the weirdest thing any of us had ever seen.

As for the shower or other amenities - we did not use them. The cleanliness was in question and none of us dared to attempt a shower. In fact, our high school age daughter opted to sleep on the floor of her sister's dorm room instead of staying at the Bluffs Inn with us.

The "enhanced continental" breakfast was absolutely not what we would call enhanced. We didn't take part in it either.

We were told that the hotel had "free wireless" - we struggled to use it. As we were checking out, we discovered that it was in a small 20 foot area with two student school desks near the lobby.

Suffice to say - that if we ever find ourselves staying overnight in Decorah again - we will not be patronizing the Bluffs Inn.

This very old hotel is awaiting renovation. Healthclub closed. Lots of permanent residents mean that like me you may meet a senior resident in her nightgown at the breakfast bar. Front desk pleasant but indifferent. A report of a room that was not cleaned (glass of wine on the table with a bug in it, ironing board still up, dusty) brought little interest from front desk. So I would pass it by – there are many other Decorah options.

We had very very good nights rest and were very satisfied. The breakfast made the stay worth the price. We will stay here again as for the price, service and food were well worth the $55.00. Very friendly staff.
