The room was extremely humid during the stay, to the point where the room and bathroom doors were sticking. The bed was very comfortable, breakfast was above average.

The staff was very friendly and helpful about Grinnell. The vinyl flooring in room 110 had been patched and the chair showed signs of age. The breakfast had plenty of choices and the person in charge had it clean. Overall a very nice stay and I would stay there again.

not a real handicap assessable room
I reserved an assessable room the toilet as a short stool not high and there was no side bar to help. the tub did not have enough bars to take a shower safely for a mobile challenged person. The beds were comfortable and the room clean. The coffee maker in the breakfast are was not working properly . I will stay in a different hotel when I visit Grinnell.
