Washington Hotel Guide - Hotels with Pool in Washington, Iowa

"The hotel was very nice and the staff were very helpful. The stay was wonderful."

"On site food was only fair."

"Nice breakfast, easy and accessible. Good value. Windows could be cracked open for fresh air. We would stay again."

"Had a good stay. The hotel is a bit worn but serviceable. The price was right!"

"The person who greeted us was quite rude; we decided to discuss our questions with someone else, who was very kind. To be honest, the $100 deposit they require is a lot of money."

"We were greeted by a large private security guard who stared us down and blocked our entrance to the front desk to check in! Not the experience we were expecting. It felt very uncomfortable and unsafe. I felt like if I would have said anything the guard would have stopped me and made me leave. Apparently, this is the new protocol for Hilton hotels in Iowa City.. You have to get by a large serious guard just to check in. The front desk clerk didn't make it any better. When I approached the check in desk he questioned what I wanted and put me thru the third degree to make sure I was guest. Evidently, this hotel has trouble with people posing as guests or destroying bathrooms. He proceeded to grill me over my parking ticket and then printed out a ticket he said I could use for validation of parking. This ticket did not work and I paid the city $40 to park in a hotel parking garage. We spent close to $400 which included a $250 dinner of basic hamburgers, french fries, potato chips as an appetizer. Our server told us we could receive a discount for staying at the hotel but of course this was bad information or lack of training because we received no discount. It is really too bad because the location is great and the hotel is decorated in a unique vibe. I talked to 3 hotel customer service reps the next day including Kennedy only to get the company line and why they couldn't and wouldn't be able to offer any discount or credit just an apology and the promise of talking"

"I travel to Iowa City monthly, and two of my usual hotels have recently closed, so I finally decided to try the Garden Inn. It has always been a little more expensive, but this was a celebration weekend, so we went for it. Overall, we had a good time. The parking garage was being renovated, and I still had to pay $15 to park in a farther garage across the street. Not a huge deal, but a helpful heads-up for other travelers. The elevators were very slow, but the view from the 9th floor was beautiful. The staff was extremely nice, the housekeepers were so friendly, and the little lobby store had lots of treats for my boys. I also loved that they had a hot tub. A little overpriced in my opinion, but still a nice hotel for a treat every now and then."
