Would not stay in a room with a messed up bathtub again.
Cons:

The bathtub in our room had been coated with something and parts of the coating had come off, leaving rough patchy surfaces. My toe is still sore.

Stuck between a rock & a hard place.
Pros:

The one lady opened up the breakfast room early so I could be at work without being hungry & they got me gluten free bread too - thank you very much !

The room was quiet*, warm, spacious enough & the bed comfy. There were plenty of charger points by the bed & there's a fridge.

Cons:

Breakfast is budget, sweet & mostly cold with a LOUD tv to make sure you have woken up.

There wasn't much shower gel.

*the room was quiet when the heater/aircon was off, otherwise it wasn't.

Fort Dodge is a place you only visit if you are passing through, there to work or are unfortunate. So, although this hotel is in concreteville it is where the restaurants are.

(Downtown, there is nothing but tumbleweed, 2 bars & and eerie feeling that the atomic bomb has gone off while you were inside).

Wish I would have stayed home and saved the money.
Pros:

There was a hot tub.

Cons:

The room could have been cleaner. The bed felt like you slept on a piece on plywood with a comforter on top. Not comfortable at all. When choosing the hotel the breakfast area showed a waffle maker. When we went down for breakfast there was no waffle maker. Pancakes, but no waffles.

Convenience and comfort
Pros:

The bed is super comfortable. The pool area is adequate. The hot tub rocks.
If you're going to Fort Dodge, this is a great place to stay. It is even in the middle of things on 5th Ave South. Kohl's is across the street. Walmart, Hobby Lobby, Target, Marshall's, Buckle all in the immediate vicinity. I recommend.

Horrible
Pros:

Horrible. Do not stay. The service was terrible. There was molded dog pee on the bed skirts and front desk wouldn't do anything about it, except for take a picture. The bed felt like it was broken in half. Everything was bad. I would not recommend it.

It was the worst. I checked out early!!!!!
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

It smelled The service was horrible. They were not nice or welcoming. The next morning we needed face towels and they made me walk back to my room to get the dirty ones and they counted them before they gave me additional towels. They was very rude the worst hotel we have been to in a long time. The breakfast was not good. Had to go to McDonald’s and get something to eat. Will not use this hotel ever again !!!!!!!!
