Overall, my stay was somewhat underwhelming. While the staff were kind and the location near the riverwalk was great, the room itself was quite outdated and in need of attention. The dining experience left a lot to be desired, especially the breakfast options, which were frustratingly limited and poorly executed. The waterpark and family-friendly amenities were fun, but I wish the overall maintenance had matched the potential.

The hotel has a decent location near the river and Dubuque center, which is a plus. However, the rooms were quite dated and not in the best condition, significantly impacting my overall experience. The water park was fun for the kids, but the areas felt overly worn and could use a refresh. Overall, I had high hopes, but I cannot recommend this place due to the cleanliness and outdated facilities.

My recent stay at the hotel was less than satisfactory, largely due to a frustrating check-in experience and outdated facilities. While the waterpark offered some entertainment for the kids, the overall condition of the hotel and staff attitude left much to be desired. The dining experience was highlight with delicious food, but the inconsistent service and hidden fees really dampened the overall value.
