This hotel was great, however my room did not cleaned. All three trash cans were full and I went to front desk and was told they would get someone up to clean because my room was not on the list for cleaning. This was on Sunday and I had been there since Friday.

Home away from home!

Great experience! I was impressed with the overall quality and appearance of the facility. The room was very quiet, spacious and clean. With the addition of a new restaurant, this will be an amazing hotel! I have found my future home away from home when visiting Waterloo.

Interesting historic former John Deere factory converted to a hotel but it was noisy with very little sound insulation between rooms. Our room had a poorly functioning room thermostat resulting in an either too warm or too cold room, it had a nice connected bbq restaurant and large parking lot.

The fridge was not clean. A lack of toilet paper in the bathroom. The water pressure in the shower was very poor. There was a constant “air sound” heard when we were sleeping at night. Like wind going through a cave. And this was not coming from the vent. More from the door/hallway. We were excited to stay at this hotel because we were told how nice it was. Sad that it did not come out that way.

I've stayed at this hotel many times and normally have a great stay. This was my first time having poor service. The a/c wasn't working the first two of my three day stay, my room was 77 degrees. I informed the front desk clerk (younger female) of the issue along with a stool cover being extremely loose, Ice maker on 3rd floor not working, needing extra towels, and sheets replaced on my third day of stay. I had to inquire three times before the more mature desk clerk was able resolve my a/c issue and provide additional towels. The other items were never resolved.

This hotel was super unique! It is the old John Deere factory turned into a Marriott. Each floor and room has super high ceilings and a ton of space. The lobby has nice alcoves with seating and tvs so multiple groups can do their own thing. The gym was spacious and nice equipment. The barbecue restaurant is delicious! The best part was Karen at the front desk. She was so kind and helpful while my family was having issues with the car, and was able to accommodate us quickly for another night. She really made our day! I’d definitely stay again.

Decent Hotel but lacking basics

This is my 3rd stay at this hotel in 3 months. Everytime I book it says free breakfast but there is NOT free breakfast at this hotel. 2 out of my 3 stays there was hot water in the shower but despite this there is no hot water in the sink. I had to fill up the garbage can with hot water for the shower and dump it in the sink to shave. I have this hotel booked 3 more times in the next 2 months but am seriously considering switching to another local hotel.
