The hotel was clean and quiet. The pool area was a little chilly as was the pool. The tables outside the pool were a great place to gather as a family.

What are some of the general tips for travellers to Northeast Iowa during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected how the world works in all kinds of ways, including how and where we travel. These tips will help you understand the new challenges and prepare you for your flight to Northeast Iowa:
  • Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before locking in your flight. Also check if there are any conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as proof of a negative COVID-19 test.
  • When you go through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to lower it briefly for identification purposes. Those who refuse to wear a mask may face civil penalties and may also be escorted from the building.
  • Rather than handing a TSA employee your boarding pass, place it straight on the scanner yourself. After that, hold it up for inspection.
  • One liquid hand sanitizer container is now allowed in your carry-on baggage. It must be no bigger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to take it out of your bag at the X-ray machine for screening.
  • To reduce handling during the screening process, place personal items such as your belt, phone and wallet into your carry-on instead of into the bins.
  • Separate any food you have for screening. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to handle and inspect your belongings.
