Dear Susan, Thank you for your comments concerning your stay at our hotel. We hope that you will accept our apologies for any inconvenience you experienced. We had Ecolab come and inspect the room that you were in and they found no bugs in the room. We just went thru a complete remodel which included new case goods, pictures, carpet, tub surrounds and new drapes in December of 2016. We checked the thermostat in the room and it was 68 degrees. I am available any time if you would like to discuss this further you can reach me at 641 357 5253 ext 485.

Dear Dave, I personally would like to apologize for my staff member who overslept on Sunday morning. Couldn't agree with you more that it creates a crazy morning then playing catch up. Appreciate the 4 star rating even though you had to experience breakfast being backed up. Hope you will give us another try. Sincerely, Lori Faught General Manager
