"Our stay here was ok. Room was clean and comfortable. It was very cool to stay in a peace of history with the hotel being from late 1800s. But when we booked the hotel there was a restaurant and bar that were supposed to be open and they were not, and were not notified. Just go somewhere for breakfast instead of the hotels. Also the gentleman running the place could not speak English, so it was hard to communicate. Overall we would stay here again. It is right in town, you can walk anywhere and your 15min from the caves."
"There was a large group of people who overtook the lobby, pool, and bar areas. So loud I could barely hear the front desk attendant.
The water pressure in the shower was very low and the water temp went from scalding hot to cold to scalding hot.
Stayed here before and first time having issues.
Staff were great though."
"We stop here at least once a yr in our travels. This year it was not a great experience. The room smelled of dog pee and carpet was stained in all major walkways. The room was very humid maybe because right next to the pool area. The breakfast was typical except the waffle machine was broke and didn't show time so waffles ended up burnt. We went to restaurant next to property for breakfast."
"This is my second time staying at this hotel and my last. A year ago it wasn't so bad. Decent for the price. This time... No. My first room had little ants and flying ants which I understand things happen. Ants get in anywhere. The staff did come and look and gave me a new room. But both rooms had dirty stained blankets and sheets. Some of the pillowcases where so old they were see thru. Bath towels had stains. My new room had hairs on the "clean" sheets. I was so disappointed with my stay."
"Our room had a leak from the upstairs unit over our unit over the toilet. My husband is a plumber and he knew it was a leak from the toilet upstairs and it was from dirty toilet water cause it leaked whenever they used the toilet. We were unable to move rooms as the hotel was booked. There was nothing they could do. They said they could look into a credit however when I attempted to talk to them again they didn't help. The continental breakfast was non existent. Try to talk to the desk assistant in the morning and no one was there. Finally left after a 10 minute wait. Am very unhappy with my stay and will not recommend another Econo Lodge."
"At 86 years old, I know one does not always get what they pay for. This Hotel was one time I felt we received more than we paid for. Can not remember when staff went out of the way to accommodate us. It is a very clean Hotel and complete bedding was all new. Will use again if in the Dewitt, Ia. area."
