The overnight staff was so funny, welcoming, and kind. He was the kind of man you wished was your grandpa. The heated pool and hot tub was so nice. The room was beautiful and the bed was so comfy and cozy. I'd never been in that nice of a hotel before. As an adult at least. The muffins for breakfast were so good and so was the coffee.

not a real handicap assessable room

I reserved an assessable room the toilet as a short stool not high and there was no side bar to help. the tub did not have enough bars to take a shower safely for a mobile challenged person. The beds were comfortable and the room clean. The coffee maker in the breakfast are was not working properly . I will stay in a different hotel when I visit Grinnell.

The temperature inside my room was 63 degrees, I had to turn up the temp to 78, it took hours to feel comfortable. I did not like the bedspread it did not keep me warm, The pillows was not poofy, very flat. I am on bloodthinners so I get cold easily. I had no idea how to fix the shower faucet in the bathroom, I tried to fix the faucet so I could take a shower was unsuccessful so instead took a sponge bath kneeling in the tub. The toilet was not flushing very well. I did report to management about me not being able to use the shower and the toilet not flushing very well. The so called complimentary breakfast sucked, no bacon or sausage, only 1 flavor of yogurt, no fresh fruit, a plain doughnut, not frosted, very dull. If I would have known that the breakfast was this horrible I would have gone to a restaurant for a decent breakfast. I should have stayed at a Super 8 or another motel at least I would have been warmer and able to take a shower and have a better breakfast.
