“Filthy an Gross do not stay do not stay do not stay”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 March 2011

We stayed here years ago and assumed it was alright to stay without reading reviews. What a mistake. Do not stay here the room smelled and was filthy, The owners smiled and were clueless. We would have left but were exhausted by the drive. The parking lot is empty on a weekend. Tiles falling off wall in tub area. This place will not make it. Wait for new owners. Am checking for bedbugs I fear what I will find.

“DISGUSTING!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 December 2010

This place is gross! The first night we were there we checked the mattresses for bed bugs only to find PEE all over the mattresses and box springs. The floors hadn't been vacuumed in forever. There was used Kleenex under one of the beds. The heat did not work properly and they would not fix it. I would NEVER stay here again. The neighborhood felt very unsafe and I feel that we should have gotten new beds and money taken off our bill. Very disappointed in the service. All of the appliances are very old and barley work. There was only one small t.v. that was as old as me. I felt like I was in a horror movie.

We took over the Alexis just a few months ago and we have put in all brand-new pillowtop beds, flat screen TVs, black leather couch and other furniture. We have spent a tremendous amount of money in upgrading but our prices stay the same. Consider the location to be the next closest one to downtown and University of Iowa, our prices are so much cheaper and our suites are twice as big comparing to the 2 hotels in downtown.

“Older and Clean”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 September 2010

This older propertry is still quite acceptable. Helpful and accommodating front desk staff went the extra mile to insure my comforts. Quiet rooms, walking distance to town and restaurants, and all rooms have an interesting aviation theme. Reasonable rates.

“Comfortable & Quaint”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 July 2010

As aviation enthusiasts, we were charmed notionally by this all-Aviation theme motel. We flew into Iowa City Airport -- all the reviews that we had read on various Aviation websites were correct. The Alexis Park Inn is right next to the airport -- walking distance, but the free shuttle-van is the better choice. The lobby and the suites are decorated with aviation-items; each suite has a theme. You can check-out aviation books and DVDs at the front desk. The suite we stayed in was large. We borrowed the courtesy van twice.
On the down-side, the facilities are getting a little old. It has that "old-motel" smell (impregnated in the carpet and drapes). The overall decor is probably 25 yrs old -- altho' you can see they've done some add-ins here & there (that are probably 15 yrs old).
The continental breakfast is delivered to your room. There are three restaurants within walking distance, and two fast-foods (KFC & Arby's). There is a Fitness Express about 1.5 miles away.
Overall comfortable, clean & quaint.

“Never again do I plan to return”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 July 2009
1
person found this review helpful

I was in the Piper Cub, for 7 nights, or boy! The air conditioner blower in room was by the television and was impossible to hear a program. The battery run clock adjacent to the bed in mini-kitchen was loud and annoying,I had to remove the battery at night. The DVD player was almost impossible to snync with the TV. IN general, the TV and DVD player are beyond replacement needs, owners need to get with the digital age and upgrade both! In general the furnishings and linens in the room were low quality and all needed replacing, including most certainly the mattress. The room in general gave one a "dirty" feel.
