We arrived at 8 am for breakfast. No bread no eggs only bacon and cereal. I asked the person there is she was brings out and she said no. There was still one hour left of breakfast. If breakfast was over 8 am they should have said it.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
While the staff was friendly, the building was clean and quiet, our door would not lock or latch. In order to keep it from being able to be pushed open, we had to use the security latch. The front desk person tried to help, but maintenance was off for two days so they could not help and the manager was supposedly called, but nothing came of that. The result was sleeping not feeling entirely safe.

All good. Room was quiet, beds were adequate. Sheets were nice quality, but a little threadbare. The a/c unit was a little loud- shutting on and off. My main critique is the fitness room- very bare bones and very hot; it was 80 degrees in the room. 1 treadmill and 1 elliptical and 1 set of weights and a bench. If there was anyone else there it wouldn’t have worked. As it was, it was hot and stuffy(maybe that kept people away?). Didn’t do breakfast, front desk very nice.

When we got there to check in was informed they didn't have my reservation, that it had been canceled. Hadn't been but in order to have a place to stay during ISU orientation had to pay AGAIN for the room. Checked my credit card online, found original payment, no refund issued, no notice from Hotels.com that the reservation had been canceled. Will be contacting Hotels.com to see what the issue is. Essentially paid over $400 for a two nights in a $120 room. Won't be going there again.

Room was comfortable, bathroom was large, everything worked. Breakfast left some to be desired, biscuits and gravy were not good, no sugar free options for jelly or syrup. Bananas were close to being banana bread.

Room was clean and comfortable. Good beds and housekeeping. Breakfast was fairly well stocked, sausage and eggs one day, and biscuits and round sausage the next, otherwise standard. Pool is small but didn't try it as too cold. Property and area is clean and quiet. Next door to golf course.
