It wasn't a bad stay. The rooms could've been a little cleaner in the bathrooms, but the beds were super comfortable. The pool and hot tub was nice, until a bunch of kids decided to dump bubbles into the hot tub. Their parents also just watched them do it, and said "oh well".

So not in the greatest area of town but was very surprised how clean the place was. The entire staff was super friendly and nice. Even though I didn't have one its worth mentioning that It's also pet friendly. Continental Breakfast was very good also.

The room could use some updating, torn couch and worn ottoman. There was no cold water in the bathroom

After reading the reviews, I was a little hesitant to book my stay here. However, my husband was rushed to the hospital and I needed a cheap nearby place to sleep. The room was very clean. My husband's stay in the hospital has continued so I booked another room here the following week. The second room looked a little beat up by some previous customer but the room was still very clean and the staff was friendly. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

The beds and pillows were comfortable. There were some stains like someone walked in tar and then walked on the carpet and there were big paint scratches on the walls, but the room was very clean. We couldn't get the TV to work in the room, but that was ok. The staff was super friendly. Overall, it's certainly not a fancy hotel, but I had a good night's sleep there.

The staff was so friendly and it was such a nice stay. Our room was clean and I left something there and they were so kind to mail it back to me. Would stay again.

The lights were falling off in the pool. The room was falling apart. And there were creepy people walking all around that kept eyeing my daughter.

I had stayed five years ago at the Econolodge near the Iowa State Fair Grounds. It was a nice place at low cost. I stayed there during a recent trip and was disappointed in how rundown the facility was. Staff were not professional and had no professional appearance. There was a rusty old van in the parking lot and a mattress on the ground by the dumpster. Juice at the breakfast area was colored water.
