Where it excels and where it fails
The vibe is fantastic with lively decor and an inviting pool area. the complimentary breakfast exceeded expectations and was a delightful start to the day.
Though the facilities showed signs of wear and the layout was a bit inconvenient, the staff generally worked hard to provide good service amidst challenges.

A solid pick for resting in Iowa City with good value. The pool area has giant garage doors that open to a nice patio. Always check for pool hours to avoid surprises.

The pool area was gorgeous, and they have adult-only swim times, which were nice. Breakfast offered freshly made omelets and vegan options. The room had a flat-screen TV, air conditioning, and a private bathroom. The fitness center and hot tub were great for relaxation after a long day. Loved the game room too!

We had such a blast on our group vacation! The pool area was great for hanging out, and we loved grabbing snacks from the snack shack. The adult-only swim time was a nice touch too! The music in the lobby really set a fun vibe for our stay.
Unfortunately, the food at the supper club was pretty underwhelming.

The food at Highlander is a real treat! The breakfast spread is fresh and homemade, and the dinner options were surprisingly delightful. Plus, the cool retro vibe creates a fun atmosphere. I loved the arcade and the gorgeous pool area too!
But, they were out of plain black tea at the soda fountain, and I wouldn’t have complained about a microwave in the room. Everything else was top-notch!
