Leslie made our check-in wonderful. She let us check in early because we got in early and she had our room ready to go. The staff were so nice. The bar staff were amazing. I have nothing negative to say about this hotel if I come back to Iowa I definitely will be staying here. My stay was amazing and I had no problems with anything

Beautiful hotel that was a surprise to me staying near a small airport. But the true gems were the staff. The hotel serves as training for students in the hospitality industry and they went above and beyond. I will definitely stay here again when I'm in the area.
