The front desk staff, Heather, was incredibly accommodating. I had an issue with inadvertently booking a smoking room and she went above and beyond to resolve this and got us a nonsmoking room.

The breakfast was nice. The facility did not look anything like the pictures on the website. The room and building were clean but showed lots of wear. The grounds weren't seasonally ready and the place felt like a ghost town despite being told it was full capacity.

Location is great
Loved having the kitchen
Liked seeing welcome and my name on the tv screen 😀
Seems like a nice place. I was surprised at how many delicious options Big Grove Bar had for vegans and vegetarians and what a cool venue it was. We also had dinner just down the street from the Element hotel our 2nd night there at a very good not fancy Thai restaurant
There were several other places to eat and a movie theater and I believe the parking was free after 6 pm bc the meter wouldn’t take my credit card. There is a Starbucks across the street from the Element but I didn’t feel the need because the hotel coffee was fine ( and I usually don’t find this to be true) and parking at the hotel was convenient and just $15/night.

Iowa City seems built around its University, similar to Columbus, Ohio. The city centre is lovely and pedestrian/cyclist friendly. It feels very safe walking around the city which has retained its lovely country town character in the shadow of the large University. Iowa City offers both country town feeling, great bars and restaurants, excellent scientific museums, and high tech sightseeing around the University. Overall one of my top ranked cities in the US so far.

Three generations of my family lived in Iowa City from the 1930s to the 1990s. It has changed a lot but still has a cool college town vibe with echoes of the past the oldest of us (89) recall fondly. Lots to do, always. Hy Vee! And health food stores and restaurants. I hate the skyscrapers and Oaknoll ate our University Heights neighborhood, but I like the pedestrian malls on and off campus. The train to Kinnick is fun in non-COVID times. We follow the Hawkeyes and read the Press-Citizen daily from one state away, and visit when we can, and will do so till we are no more.

Super cute city with tons to do.
Super cute city with tons to do. There were outdoor activities every day of our stay. Lots of places to eat, places to shop and the nicest bunch if people you could ever meet. If you stay downtown, everything is within walking distance. Absolutely love Iowa City!

We absolutely loved this hotel!
We absolutely loved this hotel! Just walking to it from the parking lot smelled so good! By far the cleanest and most comfortable hotel we stayed in the 13 nights we stayed in during our road trip! And bonus…we got a great rate through Booking.com and paid less than $100 including taxes.

There were plenty of restaurants and bars within walking distance. It seemed safe. We were there for surgery at the hospital so we didn't stay long but we appreciated everything we needed being close by.
I loved how quirky and unique this hotel was! The front desk clerk was so nice when we arrived at 12:30am. The room was clean and the beds were amazingly comfortable. At first glance, you might think they hadn't updated in years. But if you look closer, the tile is new and it is intentionally trying for a retro 70s vibes. I personally loved it. The lobby is attached to an adorable coffee shop that has pencils ✏️ lining the walls for decor. Plus the location is so close to everything. It was a great experience!
Loved the vibe of this hotel. It was a perfect retreat from a long.road trip. Amenities were great. The sitting spaces throughout the hotel for having a chat and drink were fantastic. If you love something a bit different. With a cool vibe it's a great hotel, located right off of I 80. Very convenient. Had dinner there and it was fresh and delicious.
The staff are phenomenal. The hotel is clean. Some areas seem a little older and very minimalist. Not a horrible thing. The pizza needs a little help. Tacos were great but the shell was more pita than tortilla. The complimentary breakfast is fantastic. I will definitely stay again. Super nice to have the complimentary beverages available 24/7.
Best breakfast!! From all my hotel experiences in my life. Bacons cook just perfectly. Potatoes and waffles.. everything cooked so right. While eating breakfast we just so happy and surprised how so perfectly cooked each single food. And looks so clean too. Room was clean and good. All workers was so kinds and helpful!!
Clean and comfortable rooms. Pretty modern. Had a nice breakfast area for my coworker and myself to get some take out and eat dinner at the hotel and not be in our rooms. I’m not 100% sure if you’re supposed to do that but the front desk girl never said anything to us.
Ideal location in former Sheraton, right on Iowa City's vibrant Ped Mall in heart of town and steps from campus Convenient to everything. Friendly staff, spacious and comfortable rooms. The decor is eclectic and a bit ... odd, but may appeal to Hawkeye fans.
The food was very good .nice large portions. Loved order out and taking to the room several times ,
Had family at university hospital and this was so convenient easy and safe walk or the shuttle if needed. Very pretty hotel and very friendly helpful staff.
size of the room was amazing location was perfect staff was extremely friendly i will definitely stay there again i work at a hotel so i noticed things others probably wouldn’t but i didn’t see anything wrong
This was our third stay at the hotel. I'd like to say that I love everything about it. Huge rooms, amazing floor-to-ceiling windows, super comfy bed, fully equipped kitchen & dining table. Great location.
Location was good but is not that close to Carver Hawkeye. It's a drive to the arena if you are in town for a game (Especially in January) - Hotel was clean, room was well maintained, staff was nice
My wife and I usually stay in this hotel when visiting our relatives in Iowa City. The bedrooms and bathrooms meet our expectations, staff are friendly and helpfull. The location is perfect for us.
The close proximity with all the Iowa city attractions. My room had all the the kitchen utensils I could think of which was lovely. The gym was also one of my favorite parts.
The Brown St. Inn is a hidden gem. Walking district to downtown Iowa City in a quiet neighborhood. The hosts were very accommodating and pleasant. Highly recommend!
The location, the staff and the facilities were great. It was such an interesting experience right in the center of the great Iowa City. Totally recommended
