You have to pay $30 per night to park at the hotel. It has a security system that you can check in and out of like a garage. It’s right next to the hotel. This hotel is linked to the downtown Skyway system. If you can going to an event at the Casey’s Center or Iowa Events Center, this is a great location. You pay a little more to stay here, but the location is worth it.
