Microtel Inn & Suites By Wyndham Clear Lake

8/10 Good

"It was a good stay-comfy beds. Breakfast had no protein which was a bummer. Also pictures showed a really nice weight room that does not exist-that needs to be amended please."

Americas Best Value Inn Clear Lake

4/10 Poor

"I'm not a fussy traveler and understand that budget motels are basic, but this one was a bit of a stretch. Positives - comfortable bed, strong shower, Wi-fi worked fine, working fridge and microwave in the room as advertised, and quiet for the most part. That part of Iowa feels safe in general so I never felt unsafe as a woman traveling alone. The not great parts - My first impression when checking in was someone demanding a refund because they found old food in their bed. When I got into my room there were no bathroom linens at all and I had to go back to the front desk to ask for them. Several times I returned to find linens missing and not replaced, like a washcloth or all my towels, and I had to go ask for replacements. The back door is supposed to lock with a key card but was duct taped open. Something that looked like dog food was lying all over the back foyer and no one cleaned it up for the 5 days I was there. One day there were bags of trash piled up outside the rear door. My trash wasn't emptied the entire 5 days, I had to ask for a new trash bag and take it out myself, and the desk attendant seemed bothered. There was a breakfast but it was only bread products. Just coffee in the breakfast area, no coffee maker in the room, It appears there is a large family living in the hotel and a couple of mornings it looked like they used the breakfast area as a personal kitchen. I won't be staying here again but if you need something really cheap it will cover basic needs."

10/10 Excellent

"I was attending a class in nearby Ventura, and this motel provided the best stay available when making reservations. The staff, upon arrival, took care of adjusting our room needs as my wife could not climb stairs (no elevator) and the receptionist was able to make the arrangements for us happen. Our breakfast was great! There was a nice variety of items, including the waffles! The property was nicely maintained and clean; we were surprised to find out the housekeeping staff took care of providing clean towels every day. They did a great job!"
