Everything about the Iowa House was positive. From the warm and cozy atmosphere, the delicious breakfasts, and ample common area space, to the comfy beds we were pleasantly surprised! The people running it were friendly and helpful but not obtrusive (as some B&B owners can be) so we highly recommend!
Brenda, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Warm and inviting entrance to the “family room”
Very inviting and warm welcome. Sad we didn’t find this hidden gem sooner after our son has attended ISU for the last four years. We were lucky to meet some of the former fraternity brothers that lived there in the 1980s. Highly recommend this property! Awesome breakfast!!!

A great alternative to chain hotels! Great breakfast as a bonus!
Dave, 1-night trip

Our favorite place to stay when we visit our college kids because of its walkable location to campus and the campus town area. We like the building history, the hot breakfast made to order, the friendly staff, and the clean and relaxed atmosphere.

Great stay in an well-maintained historic ex-fraternity house! The fresh-made breakfasts were way better than we expected. And the location so close to campus couldn't be beat....just a quick walk to everything!
