Lodges in Elkader

"Gentleman at check in was amazing. Room was very clean and beds were very comfortable. "

" The hotel is not fancy but affordable and CLEAN. It's simple and had a free breakfast that included a variety of options: fresh fruit, hot egg & biscuit sandwiches, boiled eggs, yogurt, coffee & juices. "Welcome" baked chocolate chip cookies upon arrival at check in desk. We appreciated the small-town hotel staff ladies that made check in/out so easy. The bed was comfortable & sheets were clean and soft. Mini frig in the room. It appeared our room had recent renovations: *new bathroom floor, toilet, shower; *carpet in room. Complaints (tolerable for us): *bathroom ceiling vent was annoyingly loud rattle; *pillows need replaced; *no USB port available; *walls a little thin (heard street traffic splashing from cars & clear conversations from hallway). If you want an affordable, clean place to rest your head, this hotel is quite acceptable to book. "

"Recently stayed one night while traveling for a family function. Hotel was very clean, room was big, and everything appeared new/well-maintained. What impressed me most was the staff. From the gentleman at the front desk when we checked in late to the ladies running the breakfast in the morning, everyone was friendly and personable and really seemed to take pride in their job. I would absolutely stay here again. "

"Hotel is in good shape. Some rooms are small, but I guess that is part of the micro thing, I didn't get it until I walked into a very small room with small bed. I did not care though I was only staying for the night and from what I understand larger rooms are available. Great Breakfast included, very clean."

"The 4th floor has a walkway to a scenic overlook."

"We had a large group of 18 that stayed for nearly a week. This location was the perfect size for us and provided plenty of room. It was a beautiful and interesting space that everyone enjoyed learning the history. The hosts were very responsive and accommodating. Highly recommend!"

"Very comfortable, clean, and accessible. Friendly staff and a fun pool area with a giant slide - our grandkids loved it."

"My granddaughter and I stayed at Boarders for a week. From the moment we checked in to the moment we checked out, we had nothing but positive experiences. It has a country atmosphere, it's cozy, and everyone was friendly and helpful. We highly recommend Boarders as a place to stay while visiting Iowa. A big shout out to Daryll who was at the front desk when we checked in and for several of the evenings when we came back to our room in the evening. Daryll was always helpful and pleasant."
