Top Ottumwa Hotel Reviews

AmericInn by Wyndham Mount Pleasant

8/10 Good

"We wished you had an elevator and we were on the 2nd floor and the tub and sink took forever to drain."

Cobblestone Hotel & Suites - Ottumwa

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and comfortable. The tv remotes were a little odd but no big deal (2 TVs, 3 remotes all worked on both). The pool isn’t advertised for some reason or I didn’t see it. The restaurant prices were absurdly high, we did not eat dinner there because of the high prices. The breakfast was pretty good."

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Oskaloosa

8/10 Good

"Seems like it’s all new, so it’s immaculate. I liked the bed but my husband didn’t. Shower had very little pressure. With this new hotel, the shrinkage of the pool size to minuscule makes it useless for adults. The gym was great with brand new treadmills and steppers and a good sized space. Breakfast area is nice but options were less than some places. It was also expensive compared to other local hotels. Not sure why. It’s close to the road so there was some noise from that."
