It was very nostalgic. Room was clean, but straight out of the 50's. They still provided a physical key to enter the room. Bed was comfortable. I would stay here again.

Old School Hotel in Central Downtown
This is an old property with many dated features, but overall was ok. Friendly staff and located in a central downtown location.

I gave this place 2/5 stars. It does not deserve a 1 and nowhere near a 3.

It's an old hotel with a lot of history in a very solid location to explore Dubuque. Great value for the cost. Probably wouldn't bring my family here, but would stay solo again without a doubt.
It was nice and convenient for an event at the cathedral. Cute old-timey downtown hotel with lots of room. Super friendly staff helped me with finding a hair dryer when I forgot mine at home.

Vintage hotel with a good vibe and great location in downtown Dubuque. It's not luxury but it's pretty cool.

Check in was easy. Staff very helpful. Very old building with alot of charm. Can walk entire downtown area. No frills. Bar/lounge felt like a Frank Sinatra hangout. Fun karaoke.
The desk person was was nice. There people lingering outside the building on and off. The inside was dirty and dark. The property smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. The 5th floor, where my room was smelled very strong of cigarette smoke and pot. The room was very dirty and uncempt.
We went here partially for the old-school feel, and it did not disappoint! Everything was fine, and about as expected for the price. Would stay here again.
