10/10 Excellent

"Great"

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Coralville, IA

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was amazing!!! Fresh made waffles, fruit, scrambled eggs, fried potatoes and sausage. Prepared, laid out well, with the tables being cleaned as needed. The pans of food, were stocked constantly. No one had to wait, for food to be restocked. I liked the location of my room131, it did not have any rooms, next to mine, plus superb sound proofing. Never heard any doors closing, or people talking in the halls. I look forward to my next chance, to use another of your hotels. "

Comfort Suites Coralville I-80

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms we booked were very clean and well kept. The beds were very comfortable, with obviously clean bedding. You could smell that all of the bedding was well cleaned. One of the rooms did have a distinct odor that seemed strange, kind of like curry spices. Other than that, the king suites were great. The buffet was great, complete with delicious, freshly made sausages, biscuits and eggs. One evening, the staff offered homemade tacos to guests! The coffee from the machine in the lobby was good. The staff are very nice. Very friendly and helpful, welcoming people at the desk ready to assist you. I did not use the pool, fitness room, laundry facilities or parking, so cannot say anything about those. But the pool was huge and clean from the look of it. Very close to lots of restaurants and stores that are right across the street. One thing to note is that the hotel is right next to a train track. You will hear the train blasting its horn loudly as it goes by. There is no way to not hear it unless you have ear plugs. Not too many trains going by daily, but when they do, you will hear it. Great place! I would definitely book again. For the price, it is a great deal."

Heartland Inn

6/10 Okay

"I choose “average” because for $100@night in Iowa City, one would expect tha basics: clean, quiet enough, easy access to room, parking, temperature easily controlled, etc. all of these seemed to work well enough plus bed comfortable. Nothing particularly notable beyond that. If going for sports, relatively convenient. "
