The food was well prepared and plentiful. The breakfast area was clean and well maintained. Check in & out quick and efficient. We will use GrandStay again.

Pros:

I really liked the location of the hotel, easy to find and pretty quiet. The room was clean and well maintained. I liked the view from my room out the back of the hotel. Just farmland. Very Iowa. The only thing I didn't like was the smell of the water in the bathroom. It smelled sort of off. But that's also an Iowa thing. The Internet access was quick. All in all, a good place to stay for a night or two.

Pros:

I stayed in a king suite with a kitchen. The bathroom was very large, had great water pressure, nice towels, however the lighting was very dim around the mirror but very bright in the shower.
Was nice to relax with the couch and chair in living room very comfortable. Comfortable bed and pillows. Air conditioner worked great no noise. The hotel is out by itself so its very quite. Breakfast was okay your normal breakfast food. The staff were friendly, I would definitely stay again! They have a large pool and hot tub looked nice, I never used them. There is no place to eat close have to drive into town, but it's not far.

Disappointed that the assessable rooms for the shower are only available in king rooms. Luckily there were plenty of grab bars that my 82 year old mom didn’t have any trouble taking a shower
