Motel 6 Hotels in Cedar Rapids

I initially wanted to give this hotel 3-stars, but that would not be fair. Let's start with the good. The lobby is what you would expect from the Tru brand. They all look the same. The room was clean with a nice bathroom, a big screen TV, and a very comfortable bed. The gym is open 24/7, which is nice, and the pool closes at 11 pm. The pool also had an outside sitting area that was rather nice. The lobby computer and printer were working and coffee was available (although not always fresh or hot). Now for the reason I initially though about 3-stars. The hotel either did not read or did not respect my room preference. My preference was not even mentioned when I arrived. The room was nice and big, but looked empty because it has bare-minimum furniture with only one small chair. To be fair, you can see what the rooms look like on the hotel website. What really got my attention is the weird choice of color for the hallways and rooms. They reminded me of a college dorm or a hospital ward. Definitely not what I would expect from a Hilton hotel. I think that with a new hallway carpet and paint and with a few pictures in the rooms or even a wallpaper, this hotel can be a 5-star hotel.

The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. When we asked for an extra pillow, they brought it up to our room in just a few minutes! The room was clean and well appointed. The A/C was nice and cool (which we really appreciated, as the place we stayed at the previous couple nights did not have working A/C). The breakfast in the restaurant upstairs restaurant was delicious and very filling.

Our room was ready before we arrived (per the Bonvoy app) - seems no mobile key here so we stopped by the desk before going up to our room. The room was plenty big enough for my daughter and I with two queen beds. Sadly the trash in the room had been left from the previous occupant but otherwise, everything was neat and tidy. The beds were comfortable enough and the bathroom was a tub/shower combo. No exhaust fan to speak of so it got a bit steamy during the shower. The breakfast the next morning was as you'd expect - cereal, toast/pastries, oatmeal, eggs and bacon and some quiche dish. Coffee, milk, juice. It was definitely enough to suit our needs. Not the largest eating area but it wasn't busy so no issues. My only real complaint with the room was that the blackout curtains cannot be drawn at night - they are installed so they are fixed open around the window AC unit. So we enjoyed a nice bright room at 530 am with the sunrise (even after cinching them closed some with a clothes hanger from the closet). Oh and no USB charging ports in the room so be sure you have AC power for whatever you need to charge. It was a slightly older hotel but clean enough and comfortable. There is a Subway directly across the street that you could walk to and plenty of restaurants/gas stations nearby. It was about a 10 minute drive to CID airport and free parking. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again, although next time I might seek out a hotel where I could have a darker room to sleep.

Parking wasn't the greatest but the room was clean and staff friendly. Bed wasn't the greatest, little hard, but for budget range hotels it was normal. Breakfast was basic but at least included. Pool was broken so we could not use that. May be the only downside.

The air conditioner is too noisy, too noisy, the quilt is a bit thin, the bed room is higher than the domestic one, the location is good, the road is not far from the airport, but the breakfast is not provided, the washbasin can not hold the water, I wonder if it is intentional

It was almost midnight and we stopped here after a terrible experience at another hotel. The gentleman at reception was very helpful and said they had one double room by the pool. At this point many other hotels were fully booked so we decided to stay. He checked us in quickly, told us where to find breakfast and explained how to find the room as the property is quite large. The room was in another building located directly across from the pool and game room. When we arrived there were several families with children running around screaming. By this time it was after midnight and I was annoyed because the area had closed by this time but once I closed the door to the room it was quiet and there was only a minimum noise of people walking in the hallway. The room and bathroom were clean and updated. I would stay here again, just not directly across from the pool/game room if I had the choice.

My husband and I had our wedding reception and rehearsal dinner at the Hilton Garden Inn, and it was a wonderful experience. The staff were so helpful throughout the entire planning process, and we were so happy with how the day turned out. They made everything very easy for us, allowing us to enjoy our day. The food was delicious and there was plenty of it, along with the beverages we wanted. The hotel staff was very attentive the whole night, making sure everyone was taken care of. Many of our guests commented on how well the night went. The staff went above and beyond to send the hotel shuttle to pick us up on our way to the reception when we ran into transportation issues. My husband and I stayed at the hotel on our wedding night as well. The room was perfect. Everything was clean and well-kept. We were able to rest well after a busy day. The breakfast buffet the next morning was also very good. The Hilton Garden Inn helped us create a memorable wedding day. We'd highly recommend them for weddings and other events.
