Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Dubuque, IA

8/10 Good

"Continental breakfast didn’t have a lot of options. Fitness center was limited."

Dubuque Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"The Dubuque Inn & Suites was a very comfortable hotel. It was very clean & smelled fresh. The bed was very comfortable. The staff was very helpful & friendly. They had a very good selection for breakfast. I will stay there again if I’m passing through Dubuque. There was a lot of parking spaces."

Tesla MedBed Center, East Dubuque

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were very helpful during our stay. We needed a place to stay for the night at a reasonable price. I am not on the internet so I had no idea medbeds were a Qanon phenomenon. Would it have impacted my choosing to stay, perhaps. However the staff did not push any of the healing properties room on us. Has the place seen better days probably. However if you need a place cheap that is clean and comfortable take a chance."
