Services & Amenities
The hotel features amenities such as free parking and free WiFi throughout the property. It offers 6 flexible meeting rooms. On-site parking includes ground-level and attached underground parking. The hotel provides a business center, shipping services, storage space, wake-up calls, daily housekeeping, dry cleaning, and laundry valet.

“I noted the unfortunate reports of maintenance issues coinciding with stays, which is disappointing given the downtown location near the Iowa Events Center and the fact that this is the only downtown hotel with free covered parking; the indoor pool is also a plus. The on-site dining and the executive chef's cuisine is a definite draw, particularly for families, but the guest experience needs to catch up. I hope the management addresses these concerns to match the hotel's prime location.”
