Executive Residency By Best Western Waterloo & Cedar Falls

8/10 Good

"The only thing that would make it a better stay would be either a hot tub for all, or at least a jacuzzi in the suites. Otherwise the stay was awesome."

Isle Casino Hotel - Waterloo - A Caesars Rewards Destination

6/10 Okay

"We stayed on 3rd floor the view was terrible just saw the flat roof and AC units we only stayed because my son had to go for surgery at Allen Hospital and i wanted him to have fun incase he didnt make it which he did so far I would of loved to see Waterloo but the view really was rotten"

Boarders Inn & Suites by Cobblestone Hotels - Waterloo/Cedar Falls

4/10 Poor

"Front desk female was slow but helpful, when my college age daughters checked in later as planned the male at the front desk male couldn't be bothered to give them a key said ``go knock on her door``. Coffee is pretty bad, would prefer to not have breakfast is the cost could be lower. When we got up about 7 am, our one key no longer worked. Beds were fine, it was a very affordable price at convenient location McDonalds, Taco John's , Walmart, Menards, Aldi, Goodwill and Savers! Would stay there again"
