The darkness of windows, beds comfort able staff friendly
They put us on an outdated room. Also maid service should come daily for garbage and towels.

Nice
Only thing was the parking lot is small.
They where sold out. We had to park by the storage containers. In the morning we noticed the van by us was gone and our driver side door had a fairly good dent in it.

Breakfast was very good my 5 year old granddaughter loved it
The swimming pool not working properly my granddaughter was very disappointed. We went down to use it and the door was locked

Easy check in. Our room was quiet and the bed comfortable.
The room seemed a little outdated, the furniture was scratched up and the carpet looked pretty much at the end of its life cycle.

STAFF: So very kind and helpful right from the start. Easy pre-check in made it much quicker to get our room key.
ROOM: Very clean and a great value. Ugly carpet is about the only negative I have for our entire stay. Microwave, mini fridge, coffee maker, hair dryer and the usual toiletries. Excellent maid service! So sweet and helpful.
THE POOL: It bears repeating.
THE POOL: It's an adult-who-suffers-from-joint-pain's dream. Salt water as warm as a bathtub. Only thing missing is the Calgon. It's a small pool but not too small to have fun. Goes to 5 ft and has steps for old people like me.
BREAKFAST: Pretty typical hotel fare except that it was fully stocked and immaculate and one of the many staff members was there being helpful and attentive. They have a Jetson's style pancake maker that was really cool. You can watch the machine make and cook you 2 perfect cakes and drop them on your plate. They also have a big pot of oats with toppings including sliced almonds. So good.
In conclusion, my kids/grandkids moved to Iowa a few years back and I've finally found my go to hotel. Fantastic stay!
Seriously just the carpet and they're clearly working on the place so that will be of the past eventually

The location was great, that is the reason that we chose the hotel.
Our party stayed at the Best Western in Altoona, close to Adventureland. It was me, my 2 adult girls and 4 grandkids. Thankfully, the kids wanted to stay in my room, because my grown daughters stayed in a room by themselves and woke up to a strange man standing in their room smiling at them. My oldest daughter demanded to know what he was doing and how he got in their room and he told them he was doing room checks (at 10:00 at night). We had to file a police report, the manager at the hotel was never available to speak to us, instead he sent us a check for the room. Very shady and unsafe!!

Bathroom sink was nice for my husband as he is almost 6 feet tall. I liked the look of the bathroom sink and counter top in there.
Computer didn’t work- not enough room in dining area and food offered was subpar. Had a dirty towel in bathroom and it looked like someone wiped their butt on it. Pillows were lumpy and bed was not comfortable.

The staff was incredibly kind and helpful. The room was comfortable and clean. We stayed for 5 nights so somewhere to hang clothing would have been nice.
We spent 5 nights, 6/29 to 7/4. When we checked in, I asked about housekeeping and was told that our room would "pop up" on the computer on day 3. It apparently eeedidn't, because we received no housekeeping. On Sunday, I specifically requested housekeeping. When we arrived back at the hotel after working hard for 11 hours, it was very disappointing to see that, again, we had received basically, no service. The housekeeper literally went into the room and took the trash I had gathered up and left inside the entryway. No clean sheets, no clean bathroom, no replacement of an empty roll of toilet paper, no bath mat, nothing!
I believe after 5 nights we should have received these services at least once. Especially after requesting them. Again, the staff was excellent and I know the owner makes the decisions. Perhaps you could pass on the message that he has milked the Covid excuse for no housekeeping long enough. The price of the room is the same or more and the service is less. I understand no housekeeping saves money, but at the customer’s expense. This is our third year staying here while working the Good Guys Car Show, but it may be our last. After working long days, it would be nice to return to a clean room.
Thank you for passing this information on to those who make the business decisions.
