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.

The hotel is very clean and has a restaurant with a bar for a quick bite and drink. The downstairs of the hotel is very spacious if you want to sit and hang out for awhile. Great location too!

We attended a concert at The Five Flags Center so the location was excellent and were able to have dinner right at the hotel before. Kind of disappointed that we were not able to have a drink in the restaurant/bar after the concert.

The overall property was good and well taken care of. The issue we had was the bathroom floor had very visible hair from the previous occupant, It was very easily seen which means that they didn't do a very good job of cleaning.

Honestly the weirdest thing was stay in king size room, sheets on bed appeared to be queen size and were barely on the bed. Very quiet room and excellent staff. Would stay again.

Best place to stay in downtown Dubuque!
My husband and I come to Dubuque every year for the Holidazzle and to relax and enjoy the downtown area. We had the best stay at the Holiday Inn - it was fabulous!
The staff is incredible friendly and helpful, special shout-outs to Barb at the front desk for being so fun and welcoming, to Amber in the lounge/restaurant for taking awesome care of us all weekend and to Jeff the shuttle driver for giving us rides to dinner and back on such a dangerously cold night - this was an AWESOME perk!!!
Thank you Jeff, Barb and Amber, you guys rock and you made our weekend getaway really fun and relaxing!
The location is perfect, you can walk to so many great places to eat and drink! And it's a great place for families to gather, plenty of space to spread out, eat a pizza from the Shot Tower in the giant comfy lobby, the kids can swim in the pool, the lounge is handy to watch sports - this place has it all at a reasonable price and safe parking! Perfect!
