Expensive. Beds were amazing. Very comfy slept like rock. Wish they would reduce rate if not using water park. Old people do not use. We would stay more often if that accommodation was considered. We go to Dubuque often it was a treat to did do the extra money. However we are unable to stay there all the time with price.

The front desk and staff was so nice to us. The water park is wonderful and I loved how there was a concession stand/food place with very decent prices right there! It wasn’t overly crowded, the breakfast was good, we had a great experience. We will definitely be back again!

You hear trains around the hour. Next to the museum and Mississippi River. Water park was fun regardless that there were some rust. The breakfast room was small and we had to wait for seats. The kids room was fun. Room was nice and updated. Felt clean. No bugs. Had microwave and fridge. Lots of vanity space.

Overall good stay
Overnight check-in tried to help me work a bigger room upgrade but the Hotels.com reservation did not accommodate it. Something both One Key and the property should work on. Hotels need to understand no matter how I booked, I am still a revenue booking. I was able to get a rollaway which worked out.

The hotel room was good. Service was good. A little upset the the summer hours started when I booked the hotel for my daughter's bday and wanted to stay for the indoor water park. Found out it's was closed Monday-Wednesday, and wasn't notified about it. Found other things to do in the area for her bday.
