Central Iowa, Iowa hotel rooms at the Independent

"Nice place."

"This is the second time that we stayed here. Tbe first time it was just my husband and myself. Our son was graduating so we booked this stay for our family. We love how a lot of the hotel is preserved in it's natural form. "

"Very nice and clean!! "

"Very nice, only wish there was coffee in the rooms."

"Staff was very nice, bed was comfortable, breakfast was good."

"We stayed because a grandson was running in the State Track meet. We had other grandkids - disappointed that 2 of the pools were closed, but enjoyed the one that was open. We happened to leave 3 pillows in Room 270. We stopped back after the track meet - about 5:00 pm and no one could find them. Very disappointed about that!! Still hope they will look into that and try to find them and let us know - we left a phone number."

"Great place but middle of business district which is entirely dead on weekends "

"basic hotel"

"This was a good place for us to stay. The only problem we had was the bed was firmer than I like but my husband enjoyed it and it breakfast was great but the service needed work. Other than that, is was great! Very quiet too."

"Beautiful views, great location, the staff was super friendly and efficient. It’s an older place that has been fixed up nicely. "
