im originally from that area and like staying at this place. This time not so much. Found all kimds of stuff left from others that have stayed in that room under the beds and blankets left in drawers. Outlets that were loose and arched when plugging our cords in. Curtains screwed into the windowsill. It was the worst stay anywhere for me in quite a while

The room was filthy. Hair all over, something crusty and sticky on the bathroom counter and bedside table. Floor had not been vacuumed in who knows how long. Hair under the pillows on the bed and the comforter was dirty. The outside was cute and kept up. Bed was rock hard.

My family and I planned on spending the weekend at the Park Motel in Denison, Iowa. When we walked in the room it smelt disgusting. As we looked around we found a beer bottle up in the lamp with some beer(?) in it, and we found pills on the floor that had Apparently been there for awhile, as they were stuck to the floor.

No one was available to discuss given wrong room. No breakfast available even though it was included in their add. No security lock on inside of door only touch number pass on exterior of room. Continuous loud noise from upper floor room most of the night, I was awake until after 2 am because of it. No one available in morning before check out to talk to about problems either. Would not recommend this place.

Comforter was dirty and had obvious hair follicles from previous guests. Beds are very stiff, but bedding was fairly comfy. Need true black out shades for room. Light from parking lot shines bright into rooms.

The property is nice. Beds are cement and room smelled musty. You only get 2 bath towels. My niece got some washable hair dye in one and I got charged 10 dollars they should’ve gave me the damn towel. I called and asked why didn’t you just call me? If you check out before 9 you have to call a number to fine the hidden key box. I will never get a room here again.

Basic no frills motel. A coffee maker in the room (even just a hot plate and instant coffee), or coffee available in the office, would have been nice. But the room was clean, bed was comfortable, and the folks working there were very friendly.

Disliked: Room comfort
If you need to sleep.... Bed was good. Sign on my room door said "Complimentary Continental Breakfast-6:30 to 10" When I went down, there were no lights on and the door was locked this was 8:30 am. I phoned as the instructions on the door said, only to be told "We quit that" So when I asked about coffee, maybe when they come in at 10! Price was $89.99! Thinking back, too high priced, for what you get. The gal checking me in was nice, but only saw her then. I guess this is a 2 on the scale of 1-5, because the bed was good!

Not great...

Called the hotel the day of our stay to make sure everything was lined up. They had no record of my reservation from Expedia even though I had a receipt and confirmation number. They said their system wasn’t working to sync with Expedia but didn’t apologize or offer an alternative. She just kept saying it didn’t go through. I asked if they had rooms available. Luckily they did but it wasn’t the suite we had reserved. The rooms weren’t the cleanest. It was ok, the facility is just really old so hard to keep something like that clean. There was hair in the bathroom and a used mini shampoo and conditioner was what they left us. The breakfast the next day was terrible. Felt gross even eating in their breakfast room. We went to Casey’s and got breakfast after that. Got us through the night but wouldn’t recommend to family or friends.
