Love the room. The only complaint that I have is that it took forever for the heat to actually warm up when I got to the room it was off and then it took a couple of hours to get it up to 65 even but I still love the room and take a visit to the hot tub, which is really nice and warm, but the bubbles didn’t work but still had a great time.
Clean room, good breakfast, and friendly staff. The hotel is in a good location that's relatively quiet but still convenient and a close drive to Downtown Dubuque by the Mississippi River.
Our room heater was full of black mold this had me sick for our entire stay I did not realize it was the mold till finding it the last day of our stay.
Both our room 323 and our friends room 307 had heaters that the inside was loaded with black mold. I did nit find out till our last day. I spent the entire trip in the room sick with a sinus headache and hard to breath. Our friends took pictures and plan to reach out to hotel this week. When I say loaded the entire inside of the heater is full of black mold.
The hot tub was filthy. It caused my travel companion to get both an eye and ear infection that required a doctor's visit after we returned home. Also, the hot tub bleached out both of our swimming suits so they were no longer useable. Hotel was fine except the hot tub.

I had to get new cards 4 times in a 12 hour period. The breakfast was all picked over. They opened up early (which was nice. There was the national farm toy show in dyersville), but they didn’t keep up with food. We came down at 9 (it’s open 7-10), and there was no milk, bacon). So we couldn’t even eat cereal. Cinnamon rolls were gone. There was no microwave in the breakfast area.
Room was sub-par - the couch crunched like rotten cardboard when you sat on it.. very limited amenities; would never stay at a Holiday Inn again.

I would NOT recommend this holiday Inn, We are extremely disappointed!! We splurged and updated to a suite. The room was was not what we expected for the price!! The microwave handles were filthy and loaded with others grime and food!! The coffee pot was not cleaned and dirty with old coffee grounds!!
The one bed was noisy and had no support!! The worst part was the overwhelming SMELL of varnish or stain which gave me and my companion a headache. We had to leave the building to get fresh air.
We talked to the front desk and NOTHING or NOBODY checked the smell out!! Other guest noticed and one gentleman said he had NO running WATER!! SERIOUSLY!?? Oh, did I mention neither of our room phones worked and front desk did NOTHING!! Isn't that a fire safety hazard?? Please, Please..... address these concerns for the safety and well being of your guest
As for me I won't be back!!!
Paper thin walls. Next door cursing/fighting couple. Sink partially clogged, slow to drain, one single tissue/kleenex and took 2 requests over 2 days to replenish. Zero maid service so no replacement in-room coffee/tea. Ridiculous pricing for the poorest Holiday Inn Express we have ever stayed in since the 1970’s!!! DO NOT STAY HERE!

The elevator was very slow and dirty. The room was ok the beds comfortable, but bathtub needed cleaned and the door in bathroom had a hole in it. The toilet seemed like didn't flush right unless held the handle down. When had breakfast next morning went down about 8 and sausage was overcooked and the milk was outdated.

The property needs to be updated. The room was clean but not in very good shape.
