“A Place for Everything!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012

We've stayed in lots of Marriott properties, but the TownPlace Suites are unique in their ultra efficiency. We loved all the storage and the great mini kitchen. This happened to be a three night stay so we really unpacked and made ourselves at home. I agree with the other reviews, breakfast was limited. My husband is diabetic and there really wasn't an option for him. We have family in the area and we'll definitely stay here again, this time we'll make better use of the mini kitchen. We didn't have a problem with the traffic noise even though we were on the interstate side of the building but it's definitely something to be aware of if you're a light sleeper.

“Good Room”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 November 2011

This hotel has spacious rooms, clean and well kept. Our only problem was the placement of the TV, which was on the right side of the bed. We had to move the table on an angle in order to be able to see it from the bed. Breakfast was ok, nothing special. Service was very good and accommodating. We would stay there again.

“Exceptional service..clean well kept rooms”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 September 2011

The service here was exceptional and the rooms were nice and clean. The weekend rate was a real bargain at $79 a night. We were very surprised at how nice everything was for this price. We only stayed two nights.

Upon getting ready to check out my husband asked about parking at Pike's Mkt. The man at the desk said just use our shuttle to the light rail if you want, so you don't have to drive in. He said we don't mind if you leave your car here even though you've checked out. We did and it was great! So easy and the day pass on the light rail was only $5.50 each. The shuttle was ready in about 20 minutes and the pick up at the end of the day was only a 15 minute wait after calling the hotel.

Breakfast was just OK, but adequate. We did use the kitchen to cook at night. It had a good size refrigerator and a small stove/oven.Overall this hotel was a great value and very nice. We would definitely stay here again!

Room Tip: We stayed in the middle building on the second floor and had no problems with noise. If you have dif...

“Very Limited Breakfast - Good Stay - Great Customer Service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

Check into the motel, and settled. Turned on the teleivsion, and it wasn't working correctly. Talk to Tyler at the front desk. He came to the room, checked the television, and offered us the opportunity to move to another room. We moved, and also we had requested a rollaway which was delivered to the room quickly upon request. What I like about the this Townplace is that is always clean (we stay there several time a year), what I don't like about the Townplace is the very limited breakfast.

Room Tip: Choose the room away from the interstate, and one that is set up with the kitchen on your left when...

“It's all good!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

We were in town with a group for the Iowa State Fair. Everyone loved their rooms. The pool is small but the water was nice & warm! Our kids loved it. You can tell this hotel is new. Everything is fresh & clean. The rooms are like small apartments. There is a stove & fridge in each room. We skipped breakfast but it looked good! Can't beat the location right off the interstate.
