Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Cedar Falls, IA

8/10 Good

"Staff was very friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, the elevator broke the first night we were there so being on the third floor that made it diffucult for my husband and I because we are elderly and had 2 energetic grandchildren with us. The staff looked into it right away but the elevator was out of commission for the remainder of our stay. The breakfast was good. Good selection. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub. It was a also very convenient location."
