Countryside Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"I wasn't happy with the breakfast , there were no lids for the coffee and no butter only a spread and not many choices."

Comfort Suites Omaha East-Council Bluffs

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean, with service every day, bed made and trash removed at least. Breakfast was amazing with healthy offerings as well as the usual waffles, cereal, etc. My only "complaint" is with the state of Iowa regulating the low temperature of the hot tub."

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Council Bluffs, IA

2/10 Terrible

"Our room was not cleaned. There were dirty underwear and poop in the toilet. we went to the front desk and told relayed the information. They did not come and clean our room or change our room. They just said it was being investigated."

Red Roof Inn & Suites Omaha - Council Bluffs

2/10 Terrible

"Definitely not worth the money. Paid over $400 for a two night stay for the family “suite” the pictures had to be from back when they first opened because the place was very run down and unkept. Needs numerous repairs. Wasn’t even close to the suite pictures listed on the site. Entire room very dirty hair hanging from the curtain rod and all over the bathtub tub felt slimy ended up having my kids stand in there and used a cup to wash their bodies quickly we got there very late and they were exhausted. Next day got cleaning supplies cleaned myself. The toilet seat alone looked like they took it from an abandoned home with years of water damage and possibly set on flames. There was so much traffic some people I don’t even think we’re staying there. The pool was tiny and packed and looked grimey. The floors and walls have tons of water damage. Bedding had pee stains and cig burns. Dogs barking all hours kids teenagers running screaming down the halls slamming doors and cussing for hours on end into the late night hours called and complained and they never handled it it just kept continuing for hours after complaints were made couldnt sleep and than the front desk did staff change over and they called me around 1am and asked about me having children in the room and receiving complaints and accusing me of being the party that was actually a couple rooms down when they finally realized they were just like oh sorry. Ruined a good portion of our vacation don’t recommend staying"

Western Inn

2/10 Terrible

"Upon arrival to the hotel I was a little early for check in due to having a wedding and thankfully they were able to get me checked in even though it was early. My air conditioner was broken, my toilet did not flush, and my door handle was broken. I was not able to have a working toilet the entire time I was there even after letting them know it would not flush. "
