I was not happy with this hotel stay. It was dingy and not clean. I would have been better off to sleep in the car.

Positives: I found one clean towel out of 6!

Negatives: The bathroom was dirty and the towels were bare threaded and stained. The door was to the outside with a lock missing and it smelled outside.

OK for last resort, otherwise keep driving.

Positives: It was in the location where I needed to stop.

Negatives: Old broken down, can's be sure the sheets were washed or just remade.

It was nicer than we expected for $50 and a free USA Today added to our pleasure.

Positives: TV Worked by just turning it on and it had captioning.

Negatives: Hotels that use Lodge Net TV are now off our list

Bathroom was very dirty with food on the mirror, looked like someone flossed their teeth and the food was on the mirror and the walls in bathroom were dirty. The mattress cover was oversized and rolled up. We usually take our pet, so it was a good thing we did not because of their extra charge. There was a coffee maker in the room, but no pot.

Positives: Location.

Negatives: Dirty and not pet friendly.

It met our needs, we had an early morning surgery and needed a place to stay the night before, it was within 1 mile to the hospital. It has location and reasonable price. Would I stay here for vacation? Absolutely not. I would not stay here for a business meeting either.

Positives: Located close to the university hospital and economical for family of four.

Negatives: Needs serious maintenance work, room was very small, not wheel chair accessible if person required.

Negatives: Outside entrance on 2nd floor.

Great for youth groups who will more than likely break something.

Positives: Clean sheets, reasonable rate.

Negatives: Advertised internet access did not work.

The only access to the rooms was from the outside with no elevator & the outside steps to the 2nd floor were in poor condition. The paved parking lot behind the motel was not landscaped at all. We ran out of hot water while taking a shower on Sunday morning between 9:30 & 10:00.

Positives: Location to events in Coralville & Lowa City was good.

Negatives: Continental breakfast ended at 9:00 AM on Saturday and it¿s too early! Not enough hot water for showers.

The hotel is conveniently located on the main strip in Coralville, close to the university of Iowa. The price for a room is great. The building is older and needs some updating, but the rooms were clean.

Positives: The room price.

Negatives: The place was somewhat worn, the walkway upstairs was dirty and the stairs were exposed to the rain.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 08 Jan 2007 rated 4 out of 10.

The room was adequate but was not thoroughly cleaned. Mirrors were not cleaned, lights were unplugged, faucet leaked in tub. This was a stop over for us but the room had not been checked before. Not sure if I would stay there again.

Positives: Was close to family and friends.

Negatives: It was cold and we had to enter our room from outside.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 30 Aug 2006 rated 8 out of 10.

It would do in a pinch, but wouldn't be my first choice in that area again.

Positives: Checking in was easy & staff was friendly.

Negatives: Needs quite a bit of updating.

I can sum up my experience by recounting a few key events. First the hotel advertised a shuttle to the hospital and to campus. I found out upon my arrival it only went to the hospital. This would have been bearable if not for the service. The first room I had the drain did not work. They apparently could not get it fixed until the morning so I had to pack up everything and move to another room. This is not the sort of thing that would usually upset me, but it was far from the end. Every day until the last of my stay that I came back to my room my key did not work. The hotel staff insisted it must be caused by my phone (which was nowhere near my key). On the second to last day the lady at the front desk finally figured out that housekeeping's key did not work for the room so they had a new one made every day. They had to realize that by making a new key to the room they would invalidate my key, yet they never thought twice about it. The rooms were not cleaned well. Just to see what would happen I did not call the front desk when my tissues ran out. The box sat empty for four days following. Four times housekeeping came in and "cleaned" and failed to notice this! I could go on and on but it just brings back the frustration of my stay. I would not recommend this hotel to anybody.

Positives: The area was nice and there were plenty of restaurants in walking distance.

Negatives: The shuttle was not as advertised and the service was the worst I have ever experienced.
