Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Cedar Falls, IA

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Cedar Falls, IA

8/10 Good
"overall hotel is about a three star. Looks pretty clean on the outside, but in the inside it’s slightly ran down but in the middle of a remodel. The Jacuzzi in the suite was very outdated but functional. The swimming pool area was about a four out of 10 as far as cleanliness so swimming with my child was a little concerning."
