Definitely a must for those who follow and admire Frank Lloyd Wright. However, I believe that even those who have no interest in him will love this fantastic boutique hotel

A beautiful restoration of a Frank Lloyd Wright building. It would be nice to enjoy a breakfast in the hotel. There is a restaurant on property. We walked 3 blocks for coffee.... very disappointing.

A must for fans of Frank Lloyd Wright!

What a unique experience to stay in a hotel designed by Frank Lloyd Wright! The room was lovely, but it was really the rest of the hotel that was exceptional. So glad we got the chance to do this!

This is the only place I stay at in Mason City. Each room is a little different (my favorite layouts are the odd number rooms on the second floor) The rooms are big enough to walk around and have a few suitcases. You can walk to get any meal or drink. Parking is super easy and in front or along side the hotel. The staff are always nice and willing to help. I love the history and design.
