This hotel was almost impossible to access as most roads were closed for the Iowa State football game. It took 15 minutes of driving through other hotel and random parking lots to finally access. Upon checkin, we were rudely told the pool and hot tub were out of order. This is one of the reasons we chose this particular hotel. The kids love to swim. The shower bathtub was a re-bath and sounded like the floor was giving out. The mattress was very uncomfortable. The breakfast had out of order waffles. Overall, not a good stay.

When we arrived we were told that the pool was not available and was not for a few days. We planned on having our grandkids stay with us, they were the 2 kids on the reservation, and use the pool. We could have been notified, as they knew a few days in advance. The shower quit working in the middle of my shower - the front desk only said, I will tell maintenance, but I was checking out. Frustrating stay

There were a lot of things that should have been cleaner. All the door jams to every room were dirty and hadn't been cleaned in some time. The carpet in the hallways was needing replaced. The paint on the ceiling in the bathroom was all peeling off and the tub would hardly drain so you had to stand in water over your feet to shower. The lobby was super clean and cute but the rest of the interior needed work and better cleaning

A dog friendly hotel with a great area for dogs to walk and go potty. Conveniently located for dining, fuel, etc. Friendly staff. Good breakfast. My only complaint is that the pool area is run down. The painting on the concrete surrounding the pool is peeling off and looks awful.
