Maquoketa, Decker Hotel

We stayed on the second floor although, there was an elevator, there were many steps to our room. The room was vintage. The continental breakfast was lacking. The bathroom was clean. The temperature in the room was adjustable and worked well. The temperature outside was warm during the day and cool at night.

This old historic hotel is a gem. The manager upgraded us to a beautiful suite with a king size bed without my asking. Super spacious with a jacuzzi tub. Bed was comfy and so were the pillows. Hotel is in the heart of the old downtown in Maquoketa. Great place to stay if you’re visiting the caves. Frig, microwave and Keurig coffee maker in the room. The only disappointment was breakfast. No pastries, breads or juice. Very small selection, but we made do. Overall a wonderful place to stay.

Nice historic place.

Nice historic hotel. Would have liked a little more of a breakfast and didn’t find an ice machine. Had an elevator to get to the 3rd floor. Would stay again.

Nice bed and breakfast type hotel. Clean, decent. The ceiling fan was an issue. The light and fan stayed on together. Couldn't turn on one or the other.

Amazing room. Interesting hotel.

Our room was amazing! It was one of the most amazing rooms I’ve ever stayed in. There is no restaurant or bar, even though it’s in the name. The breakfast was simple but ok.

The staff was very friendly - greeted us everytime we walked in. And helpful by carrying our suitcase up the steps. It is an older building so the rooms are smaller but we expected that and enjoyed the individual charm and the coziness. There was a Mexican restaurant on the same block which was nice to walk to and the food was good.

A hidden gem!

Inside this historical building lies a hidden gem! We were upgraded to the King Deluxe suite without asking (& for free!) with a hot tub. The room was clean, the hot tub was perfect, and the bed was heavenly. We will definitely be staying here again if in the area. The manager was so kind & readily available. There is a restaurant/bar downstairs but we didn’t use it. You can’t beat this place - especially for the price! :)

This is an historic gem of a property. Chris was very nice and accommodating. The location is good and the area around the hotel is very walkable and safe. The walls are thin so you can hear conversations from other rooms quite easily.
