They were redoing the bath tubs and the smell was terrible. I called the front desk to see if we could move and she rudely said no but maybe she could get some air spray to mask the smell.

Richard, Thayer

Disliked: Amenities
There wasn't any ice melt on the ramp going into the building on the SW entrance. Only the front entrance had adequately been cleared. The rear of the building had only been cleaned on the outside of the walk. Not the main part where people walk. This made it VERY DANGEROUS for me or anyone with a disability to walk and be safe. The mattress was not comfortable and you could feel all the springs ( hard and uncomfortable). Only the bare minimal necessities. No klenex. No Tea in the room for drinking, only coffee. I don't drink coffee. The heater in the room was the best item in the room. It didn't long at all for the room to heat up. As for me staying at the Countryside Inn and Suites in Lake Manawa, this will be my only time staying there. Just to unsafe for anyone with a disability.
