It appeared the bar and grill was out of service. The hotel itself was like a museum going back in time. The room was clean with old school wooden furnishings. I enjoyed my stay but ate at the local diners on main street. Hotel reminded me of the movie "The Shining". I thought it was pretty cool seeing the vintage furnishings.

A Shadow of the past greatness Had stayed at the decker 10 years ago when their bar and restaurant were operating and was excellent. Both are closed now and there is just not a lot else in maquoketa. Place was nearly empty except for us even though there were some events going on in the area. Still a unique and well preserved old hotel but could use a few room updates such as fridge . There also was no ice machine in the place. A minor annoyance but those add up. All in all it was acceptable but not great.

Better to visit than stay Front of building needs work! The breakfast almost got a pass: only beverage choice was milk, granola bars (very dry), (overripe bananas), cereal, yogurt, breakfast mini sandwiches. My spouse had complaints about everything. The room we had had needed an air purifier or something similar. It smelled off- not musty or aged, more like old grease. Room and bedding were clean, but could have used vacuuming- dusty at edges of carpet. I tried to turn down the thermostat to 65°for sleeping, but only went to 68° as some kind of control on it. The bathroom was immaculate except for white spots on the wallpaper opposite the sink. There were few channels on TV, the internet would not connect in the room, went down to front desk and it worked there and no problems after that, the phone in the room didn't work at all-not even a dial ton, the people above us made a lot of noise in the am, but the worst for me was not getting the room black at night (the shade didn't go down all the way and there were street lights right outside our window.) The bed was almost comfortable (we only had queen, no king available). I told the staff my husband didn't walk well, so staff pointed out the elevator, but our room was the farthest from main entrance as it could be and our daughter who is not a senior had one in the middle. There was one minifridge in the room in the center of the hall. My husband complained no ice in there and no ice machine; you have to pick it up at front desk. The elevator worked.

Great antique hotel. If you love history it’s the place. Microwave, fridge, jet tub and great bed.

Historic grandeur that needs some TLC to retain its glory. Clean and pretty, but a bit forgotten, it seems.

The hotel is pretty cool because it is historic and on the main street. The rooms are small but again, it is a historic hotel. Noise comes from the halls easily. Our bed was a double, not the queen we reserved and it was also very noisy. I know it sounds bad :) but even the tiniest movements in the bed were loud and would wake me up. Comfort and cleanliness were okay. Also, bring a blow dryer if you use one, they are not included. Check in and out were extremely easy and quick.
