Drury Inn & Suites Iowa City Coralville

Drury Inn & Suites Iowa City Coralville

10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay! The hotel offered a great value for the price, with clean, comfortable rooms and a welcoming atmosphere. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our visit, making us feel right at home. The food was surprisingly good, which made our stay even more convenient. One of the highlights was the unique pool, it was a fun feature that really set this hotel apart. If you're visiting the University of Iowa Hospitals & Clinics, the location is excellent. It's just a short drive away, making it an ideal place to stay for medical appointments or visiting loved ones. Overall, this hotel exceeded our expectations with its affordability, cleanliness, friendly service, and convenient location. We would definitely stay here again!"
