All basics covered!

Hotel was not fancy but it was very clean and had all the basics anyone needs. The room had a full size fridge, sink, and microwave which made it very convenient to store and heat left overs. Bed was very comfortable and I slept well all 4 nights. I would stay here again. Thank you!

Good for one night with dogs

He was going to put me on the 2nd floor with 2 dogs. I said that won’t work. Do you have a pet room on the 1st floor. They had a king with a small couch. Parts of the hotel had been updated. Not my room. The couch was worn enough there was a hole on arm. I’ve never seen a shower like the one in the bathroom. It had instructions on how to operate. Breakfast was decent.

Disliked: Amenities
This is a last-choice option in Grinnell – inexpensive to be sure, but the rooms are rather rundown, the bathroom could have used a deep clean, and the amenities are few and far between (e.g., my TV wouldn't show any channels).
