The Current Iowa, Autograph Collection

The place overall was pretty. You have to have a key card to get to your floor, which is nice. You do have to pay extra for parking and breakfast. If you go across the bridge the pancake house was amazing. The room overall was clean and nice. My complaint would be the bathroom. Our shower head was broken and we could not take a shower the next morning. The mirror in the bathroom also has a tv within and that did not work. When we checked out the front desk was not helpful or willing to do anything for these issues. I was just ready to go home and shower.

A beautiful historical hotel with Hot tub, pool and a great rooftop bar. It’s right across the street from the River, and most down town Restaurants and attractions are easily walkable including The Figge Art Museum, and the Adler Theater. I would love to stay here again.

We have stayed at other Autograph Properties and really enjoyed them. We appreciate the focus on quirky designs and innovative features. When we checked into The Current we expected the same. Its art themed approach was nice, but we quickly found the maintenance and service lacking; something that has never been an issue in other Autograph properties. The bidet was broken, the lighted mirror didn't work, the bed side light was borken and housekeeping never cleaned our room on our second night. When we went to discuss accomidation changes with reception staff, we were ignored while they talked on the phone; after 10 min we grew tired of waiting and left. A simple acknowledgement or signal that they will be with us soon would have been nice. If you are considering this hotel, I would continue looking. They are many discount hotels in the area that will provide better service and better accomidations.
