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 Everything about the hotel seems to be outdated and is in need for updating or repair -- which obviously isn't going to happen with the hotel closing.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.

Great weekend, nice welcoming treats, room clean but soooo hot! We opened the window and got a fan and it never got cooler than 78 degrees, slept very poorly because of it.

Location
It is great for location, staff were very friendly. Rooms are on the small side and a bit dated, but that is easily overlooked with the ease of getting around campus. Sad to hear it is closing.

Nice hotel, but a little out of the mix. There is a lot of construction happening around the property. Once that is done, hopefully, it will feel a little better.

This was not what I was expecting at all. It might be a fun for an alum or someone who wants a dorm room experience because that was literally what is felt like. Had to walk way to far for parking as well. Checked out after the first night. I was disappointed, pics on Expedia were def misleading.

Maps took us to the front entrance which isn’t a big deal but just know it’s the Student Union so there will be college kids there and they will direct you to the hotel check in which is in a different part of the building. We loved our view of the river and the room was nice. Plenty of towels and washcloths. The door gave us some trouble but with a call from the hallway to the front desk he knew what we needed to do to get it open. Don’t expect to much for breakfast but what they have works. All in all we enjoyed our stay and would book again.
