We stayed for an Iowa State football game and liked that we had an easy walk to the stadium so didn't have to worry about the stress of parking. The breakfast was great, the staff were friendly, and the rooms and public spaces were well kept.

Staff is extremely helpful and friendly. Lots of options available for drinks in the morning with your free breakfast. My only wish would be that the breakfast time lasted later on the weekends. People tend to sleep in a little bit more on the weekend and I got up just as breakfast was ending. Not ideal.

Nice place to stay, very quiet, and excellent part of town right by Iowa State. The only downside is it’s a really big place, so you may have to walk far to get from your room to breakfast or the pool. It could use another elevator in the farther hall. But the pool and hot tub were nice, breakfast was okay, and I would stay here again.
