Best Western Plus Longbranch Hotel & Convention Center

6/10 Okay

"The Best Western Plus Longbranch hotel in Cedar Rapids is a nice hotel for the price. However, my family and I stayed on the 4th floor and had to take a skywalk to the complimentary breakfast every morning. (A very long walk) The pool, hot tub, and game room is definitely a plus at this property. The water pressure for the showers definitely needs to be increased or the showerheads need to be replaced to improve the water pressure."
