Very awkward layout. Couldn't find elevator. Had to walk 5 mibutes to get to pool and breakfast area. Pool table didn't work and was missing a ball. Only two functional pool cues and one broke one. Room had some minor cosmetic issues. Not easy to find. Not obvious where the front desk is when you walk in.

Entire hotel and rooms (tried multiple) smell like smoke. There's no way this is a non smoking hotel. Front desk people aren't around. For the price and service, this hotel is dilapidated and should not be over $100. Should be $50-$70 / night if you compare to other low end hotels. Will never stay here again. Online reviews haven't caught up to how bad this place has gotten.

The room was nice and clean, the hotel was quiet, and the bed was comfortable. The price was reasonable and the breakfast was good — staff were very friendly

I've traveled all across the states coast to coast multiple times and this actually a sneaky great hotel. Very solid continental breakfast. Rooms were also solid (only negative. I could say where beds were a bit firm personally). Good restaurant and unique huge atrium communal area with games connected to the Glass enclosed pool. Pool, jacuzzi and sit-in wood sauna combination was a big surprise (pool chemicals may be a bit strong but there were a lot of kids if you get what I mean). The gem/ruby/diamond of this hotel is the gym. Oh man it puts any and I mean ANY hotel gym to shame. shoot I'd say most gyms in cedar rapids/Iowa city it'd put pressure on if not beat other than the really really serious ones. Almost all hammer strength equipment, iron free weights with all the variations that you would need (squat rack, flat bench and a good bit more), dumbbells that go to 120(what?!) and a cardio center. I'm also pretty sure they do aquatic fitness with pool dumbbells and pool related fitness things. With its unique look and setup and other accoutrement it provides FIVE STARS for sure.
