Satisfied customer
Pros:

It was a very quiet, clean and cozy motel. The most cozy part of my stay was the beds, sat high, mattress were so comfy, firm but not too firm, just right...very inviting. Their prices are very reasonable and worth it. They also had great water pressure. If you are looking for a motel I would suggest the Travelodge in Iowa City. 😁

It was great
Pros:

The worst part of my entire experience is doing this survey, the room was great, the staff was great, me and my fiancee even consider this to be our special place and are considering it for our honeymoon.
