Top Center Lake Hotel Reviews

AmericInn by Wyndham Okoboji

8/10 Good

"The location of the Hotel is great and the room was clean and comfortable. The one thing I was a little disappointed with was the breakfast. You had to use a microwave to heat up most of the hot food items the only thing that you didn't need the microwave for was the waffles. Everything was premade and individually packaged. Other than that the Hotel was very clean and hospitable."

Super long wait to find staff because the sign is always up at the front desk saying they are away doesn't seem to be someone who sits at the desk they seem to be busy doing other chores - I don't think the staff was Lazy just being multi tasked too much. When they did finally get to the desk they were very helpful."
