This was a great hotel! Very clean and had newly renovated and updated rooms and baths. The bed was one the most comfortable hotel beds I’ve ever slept on. Breakfast was delicious, as well! I would definitely stay here again if I’m ever back in Council Bluffs!

Not a good time to stay

The hotel is in the middle of a remodel, so there was a weird smell the entire time. Plus, I have about a dozen bed bug bites on me from the bed. They didn’t clean up our room either. No beds made. Only new towels dropped off.

About 10 min from zoo/downtown omaha, 2 min from I-29 convenient for all the places we vistid in the week. Remodeling going on but didnt effect our stay. Breakfast attendant reccomended a great park to take our kids to. No bathtub for the kids (toddlers) was a challenge, shower only. Also the sink was pretty high and the soap was about 3 feet away, also a challenge w/kids. Asked front desk for a step stool and all they had was a shower chair, but that worked. Will definitely stay again.

Pillows were too big and too hard. Please have one large and one petite. Why do all pillows on the bed have to be the same? Mix n match firmness

Was a quiet overnight stay. Staff were all great, check in easy & breakfast staff super too! My only complaint, the fitted sheet was not smooth & soothing, almost like it was pilled or fuzzballs on it from age (?). Otherwise we had a nice stay.
