Wonderfully remodeled rooms, very modern looking. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. It was…read moreclean and well kept. The breakfast was wonderful with a lot of options. Would return for sure.

The not so Super stay…read more.. So we travel to Waverly, IA and are all excited for our friends wedding! We booked a pet friendly room as we didn't have anyone to watch our dog. Upon checking in after 3pm, we discovered that they didn't have many of the wedding guests' rooms ready. They said ours was ready so we offered to let other wedding guests change clothes in our room as the wedding was at 4pm. STRIKE 1: I was about to get my rooms keys and was asked to sign a paper saying that I didn't have any undisclosed pets (among other things). I explained that I only had my disclosed 40lb dog. She then tells me that I didn't reserve a pet friendly (smoking) room and that I cannot stay there with a dog. I explain that I have my LIVE DOG in my car, and know NOBODY in Waverly to watch her, explain that I will crate her and plead to stay. She basically accuses me of lying about making a pet friendly reservation and says that they would never accept a dog over 25lbs anyways. Luckily, a groomsman happened to overhear the conversation and explained that he had just checked into a smoking room when he wanted non-smoking--he asks if we can switch rooms. She sighs and acts like she is totally bending the rules to help us out. She charges us the pet fee and gives me the pet forms to sign--which states that your dog CAN be 40lbs. We end up late to the wedding because of this fiasco. Mistakes happen, but it's about how you react to them that matters. She showed 0% empathy to my situation and didn't even attempt to problem solve. The hotel was booked because of this wedding, there were other wedding goers with smoking rooms happy to give them up. STRIKE 2: Toilet was busted in our room. You had to take the lid off of the tank and jiggle some things around to get it to work. I never did master the technique, so basically our room started to smell like a big pile of smoky pee. We weren't going to be obnoxious and call the staff to flush the toilet for us, but an apology, discount, any acknowledgement would have been nice. STRIKE 3: We had a great time at the wedding despite our late arrival and returned home to the hotel. After taking turns on the broken potty, we take our dog for a walk. We have a nice little stroll, enter through the lobby, and start heading to our room. We have already started up the stairs when we hear the receptionist yelling at us. We head back to the lobby to hear her say "YOU CAN'T HAVE YOUR DOG IN HERE!" I tell her that we paid the fee and are taking her back to our pet friendly room. She continues to yell at us that we must use back entrances....which nobody ever told us...not to mention NOBODY was in the lobby being bothered by my dog's presence. Ok lady, I understand that you are taking your job very seriously and rules are rules. However, maybe only yell at guests for not following the rules when you actually tell them the rules. Also, maybe just pick your battles. I understand that you're the pet police, but all of the hotel stayers would have still survived the night had you not yelled at us. And I wouldn't be wasting my time writing this review to tell the world how unwelcoming and embarrassing my stay was. There are plenty of other hotels near by in the same price point. Just don't stay here.

Wow! This place is modern, newly-renovated, and immaculately clean. The hallway still has that…read more"newly-renovated" smell. The decor in our room is super cute, with adorable duvets, a gorgeous orange desk chair and mirror (I'd buy both for my home, tbh), and lots of sensible storage. There are outlets for USB and USB-C charging, ample attractive lighting, and you have the option to close the opaque window shade, a sheer shade, or both. You even get your choice of a soft or firm pillow. The bathroom and mini fridge are immaculately clean. I can't recommend this place highly enough. I almost wish we were here for longer than one night, as it really is so nice. It's refreshing not to be grossed out by a hotel. The woman at the desk was friendly and efficient! I would definitely stay here again if I were passing through. I'm so impressed that I forgot to wait until morning so I can comment on breakfast. I'll do that tomorrow. After a gloriously hot shower with moderate water pressure, we're at breakfast. There is a great array of options. I'm having a banana, Oikos yogurt, and an egg white omelet (a circle of egg white and peppers folded in half--genius). My mom is eating her weight in bacon, a banana nut muffin, and a biscuit with sausage gravy. There is sausage, as well as a cheese omelet and a pancake machine. Lots of fruit, cereal, yogurt, bread/bagels, etc. If you're on Mason City, it's impossible to imagine a better option than this Holiday Inn Express. Found the flaw: Fox News on the breakfast room tv. :(

Amazing staff, clean and impressive accommodations. Lovely breakfast. The best experience I've had…read morein a long time.
