After reading some of the negative reviews I was afraid it would be dreary and broken down but it was fine and our family had an excellent time. Check in staff was friendly and efficient. Room was as advertised. The water park area is small, and I can see how if it was mobbed with people it would not be... More

The hotel was nice. The room and bathroom were clean. The room could have used an airing out. The beds and pillows were clean and comfortable. The fun pool area was not so much fun.....unless you were a polar bear! The water was freezing cold. We were only in the swim area an hour.It really was sad to see how... More

Is it possible to give a lower score? My family had booked a two night stay with a military rate for a quick get-a-way from Des Moines. The main pool had been drained and refilled freezing cold, the hot tub was completely taken apart and looked broken for a long time, the main wading pool was "out of order" and... More

Not a preferred place to stay, but everything else was booked in the area so we had no choice. Overall, not impressed. The side door lock was not working, so anybody could just walk in- potential security concern? The hot tub was out of order, and looked to have down for a while evidenced by the scum floating on top.... More

I have never been at a hotel where the check-in person asked about discounts we might qualify for. Most of the time, if you don't ask, you don't get it. Our host immediately knocked our rate down for us, and was so friendly and pleasant to us! The wasserbahn is very nice, especially if you have little kids, and well... More

I read all the latest reviews on this place and was very nervous to go, however we got a good deal for a room on groupon, so we were stuck using the coupon. I would like to start out by saying it is not as bad as I believed it would be based on the latest reviews. When you walk... More

Enjoyed our visit to the quaint little town of Amana. Lots of shopping, food, and spirits. Everyone is so friendly here. The Waterpark was nice. Cold, and the hot tub wasn't working but overall the stay was great. The kiddos had a blast and so did us adults.

We have been here many times in the past, but this was our last! Hot tub was not working, full of green water. Water slides were not turned on. Not enough staff. $200 for the room, which had black mold growing all over the bathroom ceiling! All vending machines and ice machines were out of order. Looked like they were... More

We have stayed at this hotel before, but it has been under new management. One big change, when checking in, was asked how many bands we needed for the waterpark. I said five, nothing was mentioned about an extra charge, and there hadn't ever been before. Upon checking out there was a huge charge for an extra band. I questioned... More

Stayed two nights with two kids(7 and 3 years old). Waterpark was good for the kids, not very big but, the 7 year old loved the water slides. There is a hot tub and a sauna for adults but, the pool was too small to swim in. Beds are comfortable and slept very well. The room was in a seperate... More
