Courtyard Waterloo Cedar Falls

Beautiful, unique, and fun history!

Staff very courteous.

Beautiful building. Nicely furnished, clean room. Onsite restaurant. Wish they had a gallery wall of photos of John Deere mfg history.

The walls are extremely thin, we stayed on the 2nd floor. Heard a guy having a phone conversation I could repeat verbatim… sounded like he was in our room. The baby coos the next morning were cute tho… glad she was happy. My fiancé thinks he got athletes foot from the shower. The bottles in the shower are refillable but our body wash was good for one person one time and it was gone. I thought the cleanliness was fine but he said paying attention to the details like bodywash make him think they do a quick scan and possibly don’t disinfect well enough. The fridge will NOT hold leftover containers bigger that 4x4, the bistro and smokehouse are good eats and overall friendly staff.

Service was below par and the hotel is not well maintained. The walls in the rooms are not soundproof—overall the rooms are comfy

The Courtyard Waterloo is a fantastic engineering and architecture design work with a great history as a repurposed John Deere industrial building. However, here are a few things that made the stay sterile and somewhat 'blah.' It has so much going for it but, and here are the buts: (1) Breakfast ($$$); (2) Parts of the hotel are not clean and well maintained -- e.g., the elevator; (3) rooms are not soundproof, and the walls are paper thin; (4) rooms weren't maintained for the three-day stay (despite asking to freshen up the room). This hotel needs a tighter shift in terms of management, or else it will start losing its edge -- and I think it already is. At $200 per night -- I do think it's worth at least one night stay for the experience

Stayed here for two nights while in town for a baseball game. I found the hotel design to be unique and intriguing. Being a Titanium Bonvoy, I was able to use my Nightly Upgrade Awards to get into a large suite, which was a very nice room, although had not been cleaned well and it was clear that housekeeping did not vacuum the room thoroughly. On our second night, it was extremely loud with kids running up and down the halls. Not something I expect the hotel to completely contain, but say that for the sake of knowing that you can expect to hear hall traffic and your neighbors. The real issue we had was with the sink in the master bathroom. I noticed on the second day what appears to be sewage coming from the faucet. I added a picture of this to the review for context. I wiped it up once in case it was a one off, but it happened again. My stomach was bothering me during the middle of the night on the first night, but didn’t bother me on the second night when I used bottled water to brush my teeth. My assumption is there’s something wrong with the plumbing in my room, so I deducted a start from my review. We would consider the hotel again in the future, but it wouldn’t be our first choice in the area.

It is nice and close to John Deere facilities. Nice restaurant.

This hotel was super unique! It is the old John Deere factory turned into a Marriott. Each floor and room has super high ceilings and a ton of space. The lobby has nice alcoves with seating and tvs so multiple groups can do their own thing. The gym was spacious and nice equipment. The barbecue restaurant is delicious! The best part was Karen at the front desk. She was so kind and helpful while my family was having issues with the car, and was able to accommodate us quickly for another night. She really made our day! I’d definitely stay again.
