I would stay again, very clean and convenient.

Check-in took a long time because the receptionist was on a very long call with someone asking questions about the hotel...it seemed like an eternity. She probably should have put the person on hold and checked the three different people including me in. The shuttle was super convenient and that guy was great!

A nice hotel in downtown Dubuque

The Holiday Inn is a nice hotel in downtown Dubuque. It is new and modern and quite comfortable. The rooms were nice and clean and we had a great view from our room. We had plans for most of the afternoon and early evening outside of the hotel. We planned to enjoy the evening in the hotel pool and hot tub. But the hot tub was not functional and the pool area had a big sign that says "Under Renovation". Disappointed that we could not use the hot tub.

Gross, won't return.

The room was dirty (door rails for the shower had built up gunk, sink drains were very dirty, they was a random 2 inch screw on thy bedroom floor). All of the faucets were really loose. The bed was 3 inches off the base so I hit my leg on it walking by the bed. Pull out bed had about a 2 inch jail mattress. Walls and headboard were all scuffed up and dirty. Headboard looked like something sprayed or to clean, but forgot to clean. Both air conditioner panels were broken and taped back on.

Dirty bedding

The over all stay was alright. Was not to happy apon arrival walking into our room and seeing what looked like ashes from a cigar on our bed. I refused to sleep in that bed bud my husband brushed it off and slept in it. We knew they were very busy and most likely didnt have any other rooms so we didn't bother with it. Tried to add a photo but the site wouldnt allow me to.
