5/5 Excellent
"Front desk staff are always very nice and accomodating with any and all requests! Freshly baked cookies at the desk are a plus!"

"Travelers need to bear in mind that this is an older historic hotel in Ottumwa Investigation. I had attended parties there before, but never stayed in the rooms overnight, but if you like old style hotels, this one is for you. Great restaurant attached as well."
