"Bed bugs! I took pictures and showed the guy at the desk. There were 5 of them alive and crawling when i lifted the mattress up. Who knows how many more under. Terrible"

"Not sure if they could find my reservation but the hotel was booked and she found me a room. Great staff at front desk. "

"We were heading to Indianola, Iowa to visit Simpson College for a Freestyle Wrestling Tournament. Our club had reservations at Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, so we booked there as well. When we arrived, we rang the bell and a gentleman came right out to assist us. We got our room cards and before we headed off he let us know that there were free cookies in the lobby. We didn't eat any, but thought it was a cool gesture. Our 1st floor room was huge! It was clean and we were satisfied with the look. It was similar to places we have stayed before. The thing that was a bit different was the handicap accessible features. Not a bad thing, but different with the walk-in shower without a tub. I was surprised there wasn't a soap holder in the shower. I could have used a bit more shower pressure also. The rest of the bathroom was what we were used to. Continental breakfast was available. This particular morning there were biscuits & gravy, scrabbled eggs, mini yogurt cups, toast, bagels, English muffins, a variety of cereals, waffles, a juice selection, and bananas. I kept it light with Cheerios, eggs, and yogurt. Diced tomatoes and onions were avaliable to add to the eggs and that was nice. We didn't get to use the amenities like the pool or fitness room. The pool was open, but with the long day ahead there was no swimming on the short trip. I was bummed that the fitness room was out of commission because I needed a weight session but that was the only negative of the stay."

"We did not like the fact that someone had to be by the bathroom door to let you out. It was very inconvenient in the middle of the night."

"The breakfast would have been good had it not been for the awful eggs. They were dry and inedible. Otherwise, the hotel was clean and efficient for a one night stay. "

"Clean and spacious room, friendly staff, multiple options for breakfast, quick check out. Initial smell of the lobby was concerning, but our room was just fine!"

"Th room was excellent, clean and spacious. The hot tub was added and had floating stuff in it amd the chlorine was so strong it was burning my lungs amd I couldn't open my eyes. That was my only complaint."

"Check in was easy as the door was open when we arrived. Could not lock the door at night, but realized that worry is from living in a large city for many years! We left notes about the improvements we felt needed to be made for guest safety in the future."
