Overall Score2.0/ 5
Was looking forward to staying at this hotel. Everything was fine till we tried to sleep. The noise you hear from outside on the streets it's impossible. Not to mention the rooms that are next to your room. You can hear people's conversations like they're in the same room. Next time we're in Dubuque we will stay elsewhere.
