Great property. Cool U of Iowa decor. Very nice staff. Walkable to university and a hundred restaurants and bars. Just off the Main Street so quiet enough.

Great location
Can’t beat the location in downtown Iowa City- everything you need is within walking distance. Employees were friendly and courteous. Hotel was clean but starting to show its age and look a bit worn.

bathroom safety
The only negative is that there is no safety bar in the shower...when I have to step over into a tub to take a shower I like something to hold on to.

Frustrated Fun
Graduate Hotel has a great atmosphere, but has a few issues that needs to be fixed (mold in ceiling and NO hot water). Also had issues when checking-in. Hotel clerk told us that our reservation made through Hotel.com didn't exist. Our Hotel.com confirmation had our stay for Feb 2-3, unfortunately the Graduate staff told us our stay was scheduled for Jan 22-23 (which was the date we made our reservation for the Feb 2nd stay). In any event, we ended up having to pay for the room twice. Had a bit of frustration, but managed to have a good time!
