Pros
Complimentary airport shuttle service available
Two distinct on-site restaurants offering BBQ and Mexican cuisine
8 meeting rooms suitable for various event sizes
Located 1 mile from Blank Park Zoo
Cons
4 miles distance from downtown cultural attractions
15-minute drive required to reach Iowa Events Center
“This airport-adjacent hotel emphasizes convenience with its free shuttle. I particularly like the sound of the on-site barbecue, though the heated indoor pool and fitness center also add appeal. Meeting spaces can accommodate larger events, but it's the easy access to both the airport and attractions like Blank Park Zoo that make this spot a practical choice.”
