I haven’t stayed at this hotel since it became the Graduate. The front desk employee was very friendly and quick. The room was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. The Hotel theme in the lobby is very student library look but the rest of the hotel is so oddly decorated. You go from plaid carpet which I loved I’ve never seen it before to a cow and pig wallpaper and very country looking in the hallway on the 3rd floor. The room was also a different motif it was antique looking furniture with sport theme art on the wall. With the old fashioned silhouette photos of a man and a woman.

A great location to stay for a college football weekend. We were able to enjoy everything Iowa City has to offer without ever moving our car as it’s well located on the walking mall downtown. The hotel’s whimsical decor added positively to our experience!
