Was happy to discover this hotel for location that was walking distance to the hospital and the free parking. The room was decent until I discovered bed bugs on the bed and in the room. Packed up and went to a different hotel. Was able to get a full refund.

Service was great and a really congenial staff . The ‘good’ rating was not because of dirt….they’re getting ready for construction and repurposing. Seeing all the history and pictures throughout was fun.

Great location on the UI campus. Outstanding staff, friendly and helpful! The building is old and the rooms showed it with peeling paint, slight smell, old bedding.

Avoid this place in the winter. The heat is set and can't be changed. The instructions by thermostat say to open the window. Even with window being open and it being 45 degrees out, you will boil in your bed. The bed is loose, worn out and you will leave with back pain. The place is being torn down but avoid, avoid.

Great service and location, hotel needs updating
The Iowa House is closing soon and it's obvious that there has been reinvestment into the property in quite some time. Everything about the hotel seems to be outdated and is in need for updating or repair -- which obviously isn't going to happen with the hotel closing. So, with that, the service is excellent and the location is ideal. The $300ish dollars a night seems fair considering market alternatives. Just know that the place is pretty worn down.
