We love the Graduate in Iowa City. We travel often from FL to visit or son attending the University and if available never stay anywhere else. So convenient and walkable to everything you would expect and want in a college town.

Room AC not working consistently. Desk staff not friendly. Reserved a king size bed and at check in didn’t have it claiming that Expedia oversold it. Also didn’t tell me they put me in a double bed size room until I got upstairs. Overall poor customer service

The parking ramp elevator was broken so I had to schlep my suitcase and bags up steep ramps amidst many vehicles coming and going in 90+ degree heat. Room was fairly clean but the hallways had peeling wallpaper. Instant coffee - yecch. Thank god for earplugs as there were police sirens and drunks screaming in the street outside my window all night. Finally, what is the point of "validating" parking when you're going to charge $20 for the privilege?

Really neat place right at the edge of campus. Staff was very friendly. Nice little coffee shop next door. Only parking available was a deck but it was only $20 for the night and close by. Little tight for a 2-queen beds place but a solid experience overall.
