Good value if you are traveling with animals, motel needs a bit of an update but it was clean, the room was spotless, bed was comfy, fridge and micro worked fine, check in and out was easy. Nice grassy areas for dogs to potty. Restaurants withing walking distance. Only about 5 minutes from the show grounds for the dog show.... More

We stayed at the Super 8 while on a business trip. In this economy we are always trying to find the most for our money on a trip. I felt we got a good deal on our stay here. The room was very clean and well set up. There was a mini fridge and microwave that were very handy. The... More

We had read some terrible reviews here and were a little scared to stay there after booking. For OUR experience...it wasn't as bad as described in most of the reviews. Sure, it needs "updating"...but it was only about 50-bucks! I would suggest new mattresses and blankets. The room was clean and customer service was very pleasant and helpful. I would... More

As an instructor I brought students to this hotel in hopes that it would be a decent place to stay. I was quickly mistaken when we found drug paraphenilia in the rooms, dirty towels, dirty comforters, and dirty walls and ceilings. We reported this to the manager, who first claimed to not be the manager and then decided that he... More

We spent two nights here and found this hotel to be nice and quiet. It is located near numerous places to eat and shop. I did not notice any cigarette smell. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Our room was quite large as we had one bed, easy chair, and dinette. I would definitely stay again. More

This is by far the worst hotel that I have ever stepped foot in. The rooms smelled musty and moldy, the police arrived on our first morning there to break up a domestic dispute, and there was a constant stream of shady characters coming in and out of this place. While it is by far the cheapest stay in Waterloo,... More

I usually have had good luck with any Super 8 that I have stayed in, and have stayed in at least 30 of them in the past several years while working with my job in many different states. But this one, was not so "super".. After getting settled in somewhat, I was about to finally get some rest.. So, I... More

We stayed here on our way to Iowa City Hospital. It's location is great, right near the interstates. The rooms were old and funiture had rips in them, kind of reminded me of an airport motel. It was single digit weather that evening and the air was leaking in so bad on the sides of the heating unit, that I... More

This hotel was extremely shabby. The night clerk was rude. Although we requested to have a non-smoking room and confirmed it in person before going up, we got a smoking room which REEKED of smoke. The room was dirty. My toddler found old food crumbs on the floor and bigger pieces of "garbage". The bathroom was not clean. The shower... More

Stayed one night. Very typical Super 8. Thin walls/ceilings. Tiny breakfast area. No lobby PC. Located next to shopping district. Taco Bell shares parking lot, many other dining/shopping options nearby. No major issues. More
