Council Bluffs Hotels with Free Breakfast

The air conditioning unit was shoty and would get very very loud at times. Our daughter and her fiance slept on the fold out couch bed. When I tried to get a blanket for them, I was told they didn't have any and I was given a sheet. The king bed was very nice. Nice location and attached to the ******.

Overall, this would be a good hotel property - not amazing - but good. However, the insanely bright flashing light of the smoke detector (compared to smoke detectors in dozens of other hotels rooms I've stayed in through years of work-related and recreational travel) requires a WARNING: Bring a sleep mask. Or you may want to pack some masking tape or duct tape to temporarily cover the bulb of the smoke detector (of course, without doing anything that would interfere with its operation). This may not be an issue if you are not a heavy sleeper or if you find flashing lights restful. Even sleeping in a position that faced away from the detector, the intense, flashing, green light (about every 10 seconds) lit up the ceiling, walls, and sides of the pillow. I've experienced issues with flashing smoke detector lights before - but none like this one. Who was the unqualified buffoon at Marriott who selected this model for a room intended for sleep?! Apart from this [significant, for me] flashing-light-in-room issue, the hotel was decent. It seemed safe and reasonably clean. The rate was reasonable. The front desk staff were professional and competent. Bedding was comfortable. The location is convenient for accessing nearby downtown Omaha. The setting is a little bland - in the middle of an area of parking lots and sports venues. You'll need a car to get to more interesting areas of Council Bluffs & Omaha for meals, etc. The soundproofing is not great. We could hear our neighbors TV clearly most evenings as well as noise in the hallways. The hotel provides coffee but does not offer tea - in the rooms or in the front lobby. I guess the same genius who saved money by buying a combo smoke detector/lighthouse decided that lowering service another notch in order to save $0.50 per guest (on tea) was a smart idea for a business in the hospitality industry. A final note on the smoke detector. The light bulb on this model illuminates both on the outside (like most models) but also (deviously!) within the inside of the plastic frame - and the frame has a big grating. So even if you put a small piece of tape or a band-aid on the exposed, outside part of the bulb, you will still get to see some flash from within the grating. With apologize to the reader if this review seems a bit obsessed with the smoke detector, but I have stayed in literally hundreds of hotel rooms and not experienced a flashing smoke detector light THIS intense before. My primary goal for my hotel room is sleep, and it boggles my mind that someone chose a model with a very bright flashing light for a hotel room. Come prepared.

We enjoyed 3 days at the Hampton Inn Council Bluffs. Started off right with coffee and a cookie available when we checked in. Then Jessica at the front desk helped us find a good pizza place nearby, and she also told us about the shuttle service available to anywhere within 5 miles of the hotel. That was fabulous! We were driven in a nice new van back and forth to the zoo and to Old Town Market. Breakfast had a lot of variety, plenty to eat and menu changed everyday. We enjoyed spending time sitting at the chairs and table outside right by the MIssouri river. Our daughter recommended this hotel to us, and we are so glad. We will be back.

I stayed there last year and it was in bad shape. I was told the hotel was going to be remodeled and asked me to return this year. I agreed. Arrived on 9/12/24. No toilet paper and room looked like the floor wasn’t cleaned. Got up the next morning ready to shower and noticed there was no shower curtain. I wasn’t going to get dressed and go to office to find a curtain as I would be late fir the convention I was attending. Went ahead with shower & then started cleaning up water. Moved the trash can and the floor was filthy. The bath mat was also dirty. The mini refrigerator had chocolate or something inside. Got dressed and went to office. Wound up with another room with 2 double beds instead of the small “queen “ bed that I had -it wasn’t much cleaner than the previous one. At least there was toilet paper and shower curtain. The office did say for me not to worry-they wouldn’t charge me for the extra bed…well thanks a lot!!!! I feel they should have refunded my money. I WILL NOT EVER STAY THERE AGAIN and would NEVER recommend it.

Check-in was quick and easy. The room was large. However, not the cleanest. I travel with antibacterial wipes, thankfully! The toilet lid had urine splashed on the back, and the corner by the tub had dirt and debris. On the duvet cover, there were particles of some variety, and black smudges in several places. One of the pillows also had fresh blue ink, so I'm assuming it was not changed. I also found mold, by the window the next morning when I woke with congestion. The hotel must be under some new management, as the room numbers were handwritten in black marker on the walls. I was on the north side, which was by the semi parking and noisy. Walls were thin I could hear conversations around me. The good... Location was easy, convenience store and restaurants next door, grab and go breakfast provided. Staff was responsive the next morning.

I booked through one of the many discount hotel websites. The website rated this hotel 8.5, but should be rated about a 5. We were told that this is an all non-smoking hotel. Yet our room reeked of smoke from previous smokers. I’m extremely sensitive with terrible allergies, so I tried spraying Lysol, but it didn’t help much. Most hotels leave the fan going in the room to sit it out, but this room was hot when we entered, which make the smell of smoke much worse. The room was “ok” but very basic. I could have gotten a much better hotel for the price we paid to stay here. Also, the website advertises “breakfast included” but when we asked about it, we were told it’s bah mmh “continental” style. Overall, this hotel could definitely benefit from some major fumigating and more upgrades. Especially the beds!
