We enjoyed our stay at The Graduate, it is in a great location close to campus town with plenty of options for dining and shopping nearby. All of the staff we encountered from the front desk to the cleaning staff were all very welcoming, nice and accommodating. We will stay there again.

The room was comfortable and clean. Wish the bar stayed open later for an after concert night cap, it was closed at 11 when we came back from Englert. Can’t beat this hotels location for its proximity to Englert and good restaurants in downtown Iowa City. Easy close parking ramp also.
