The room was fantastic. The bed was comfortable, the shower was absolutely amazing hotel staff was phenomenal. They even called me personally to tell me I left something in the room.
Beautiful hotel in the heart of downtown Decorah. Great hotel bar for happy hour or a nightcap. Room was clean, beds were so comfortable and it was quiet. Very neat hotel!
We very much enjoyed the historical significance of this nicely refurbished property and will stay again on our next trip to/through Decorah. Rooms are comfortable and well-appointed and the hotel staff are courteous as well as helpful.
