$180+ per night for this? Ok, if boarded up windows, temporary LOUD room air conditioners, broken hallway floor tiles, and pot-holed parking lot are your thing, go for it. Want to talk to the manager? Good luck. Oh, wait. He did finally call and left a message… after we checked out and left town (the front desk staff must have forewarned him of my dissatisfaction). Stanton and George Mead would be rolling over in their graves if they saw the condition of what once was the premier place for conferences, reunions, and visitors to the area. $180+ per night? Wow. Just WOW!

We arrived on a Friday, which is probably the most exciting day of the week for them. They had an Elvis impersonator in the bar and it was packed. I think the locals come there too. The happy hour was good. Then after that, they had a band outside on the patio, which we missed because we had other plans. The next morning, we walked down by the Wisconsin river and found a nice coffee shop and talked to some locals. There was also a farmers market where they had excellent looking vegetables. The hotel had a small buffet breakfast. We had to wait for more eggs to be brought out, but it was sufficient. The hotel is an older place and could use some updating. the rooms are large and had the amenities we needed. There was plenty of parking and plenty of places around two sit and relax.I like having another sink outside the bathroom so that was a plus. They were cooling the room with a room size AC so I’m not sure if that was temporary or not.

This hotel is tired. It seems like current management is trying to bring it back but there’s a long way to go. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. But my room was very dark and had only one lamp. Bath is antiquated but everything worked. The breakfast buffet was better than expected- eggs and sausage in addition to the usual cold items. Carpets in certain areas were in need of cleaning. Indoor pool looked to be in good shape. I had lunch at the restaurant and it was meh.

Overall they have all the amenities you would want ex. Pool, hot tub, large rooms, breakfast and parking included, restaurants on-site, but with that, those amenities are dated and need some TLC. Are room smelt like a dog owner had a long stay before us or they just had a wet dog in the room, including noticeable fur on the carpet. Bed was comfy. Many screw holes where picture frames or decor had been hung, just cosmetic fix at that point. Breakfast was good with many options hot or cold. Pool area and hot tub need some work - lots of standing water especially by hot tub area and a noticeable green line along the water line in hot tub. Parking lot and landscaping around hotel looks like it hasn’t been touched in a while. Overall staff were “friendly”, but only the lady who helped with breakfast greeted us with a smile, remember customer service is first priority. All in all would stay again with the value and amenities offered but would love to see this place get an uplift if possible.

We were charged a $10 'service fee' at check-in after having prepaid through Expedia. This charge was not disclosed upfront or explained at check-in. The sheets for the pull out sofa were stuffed in a drawer that was jammed close and had gum stuck to the top of it. We decided to drive home 2 hrs rather than spending the night based on our initial experience with the room.

Staff was great. Amenities were endless. Atmosphere was welcoming. But unfortunately the bedroom smelled of mold, blankets, beds, sofas felt moist and wet. Ceiling falling apart, dirty towels, dirty bedding, found pretzels in pull out sofa, found old chicken bone in chair. Bloody towels were left on dinning tables. It’s really sad and unfortunate because it is a great place with a ton of potential and if it were much more updated and the cleanliness was better there would be no complaints. And we came for a baseball tournament and booked many rooms.

The first room we were given, was not clean, back down to the front desk and got a new room....when we got into the new room, the nightstand must have needed repair as it was pulled out with vices on it and a mess behind it. The bathroom had no towels to take a shower and when you turned off the AC, water poured out of it into the room. Terrible experience.

Spent about 5 minutes looking over the room and asked for a refund which thankfully they were willing to do. There was spider webs, a fly, 1 of the window latch handles was snapped off, duct tape type residue around the windows, a decent layer of dust on the shelf above the closet hanger area, the bathroom door didn't open all the way because it hit the toilet, the beds were made but not clean(fuzz from clothes, a couple hairs, sweat stained pillows) this place is no where near worth the $500 they charge for a weekend at least not room 170.

This property is extremely outdated. We had wood on our windows with a portable air conditioner taking up space in the room. The pool was dirty with clumps of hair on the pool bottom. The whirlpool was broken during our stay, but it was disgusting looking anyway. It looked as if it hadn't been cleaned in a long time. Vending machines not in working order. Hotel manager actually said \"I'm sorry those machines are neglected, we prefer you use the hotel store\". Beds were uncomfortable and the room was in rough shape. Walls and ceiling was significantly cracked and showed the hotel's aage.The advertised chefs prepared breakfast was a room with a self serve make your own waffle machine and some questionable hot eggs, bacon and potatoes. For the price we paid for the room I expected a much better experience. I will not return to this place.

It had been over 20 years since I’d been to Hotel Mead and literally nothing has changed. Could definitely use some updating. Wall paper peeling away. Stained up old furniture. Mattresses that have seen better days and bathrooms from 1982. Served its purpose tho. The pool itself seemed well maintained and breakfast was ok (even if it was a bit cold). Bring your house shoes if you decide to stay!

This hotel is becoming dated and could use updating/ renovations. The air conditioner wasn't working so a portable unit was in our room. It did keep the room cool but damp. Beds were incredibly hard and uncomfortable. However, our room and the rest of the hotel was very clean and staff was kind and helpful. Breakfast was outstanding. Yogurt and toppings bar and bacon, eggs, and two kinds of hash browns. Lots of nice common areas inside and outside to gather if you are traveling with a group.

When interacting with staff they were helpful, kind, and professional.
We had plenty of clean and folded towels, but they were not stacked or hanging neatly, just kind of thrown on the shelf/rack.
Room was clean, mostly. No criticisms for the sleeping area. Shower had dirty grout, drain pulled out and sitting on edge of tub, and when taking a shower, with water temp turned all the way hot, the water was lukewarm at best. Shower was tolerable but definitely not hot.
Only had 2 ice machines on entire property. One of them was not working. The other was completely on the other side of the property. It was easier and faster to drive to it.
Not necessarily a criticism but something that occupied my mind for the stay, all the room doors open to the hallway and not into the room.

Room was 90 degrees when we arrived. The portable ac being used was not venting the hot air. The staff tried to tape and screw cardboard over the window around the vent. The room never cooled down. We were one of several rooms that had this setup, as the hotel was \"changing their ac systems\" in each room. The drain from the ac was leaking water all over the floor. The hotel should have never rented these rooms out. Sheets were filthy as well.

Two night stay and the A/C was not working in our room (and others). They did provide a large fan and offered 25% off the room rate. We stayed at Hotel Meade twice previously, about 20 years ago, and the hotel is not as nice as I recall. Rooms could use updates and the outdoor patio area should be better maintained. The free breakfast was very good and the restaurant staff was nice. Front desk staff wasn’t particularly friendly. Understand they were in a tough spot with the A/C but they could have been a little more sympathetic. “Sorry” goes a long way. Great location.

We love this hotel. But we stayed in the older part of the hotel this time. Toilet wasn’t the best and the A/C didn’t work. We didn’t say anything until we left. Hopefully they fixed it for the next people.

The room was clean and very big. The breakfast was good and so was the staff, very helpful. The problem I had was trying to get someone to check the thermostat in the room. It was so warm I couldn't get a good nights sleep, both nights. I like the motel, stayed there in the winter and that's why I came back to stay again. I have more trips coming up I'm debating on staying again or not. I have been doing cleaning.at my sisters house as she passed last Oct. I'm from Illinois came up.on a Friday and after working so hard during the day a good nights sleep is what I needed. On Sat.we worked late again getting back to the motel showered and ready to call it a night. I called the front desk to tell him about the room, he didn't offer to check out the thermostat, only said he could change rooms. Its late I'm tired we are leaving the next day. That wasn't the answer , A fan would have been helpful but nothing. He mumbled something and said goodbye. It was nice and comfortable in the lobby .
I usually don't complain but it was the way I was treated , like don't bother me.

Booked a family suite, room did not have working AC. Talked with clerk at front desk and was moved to a King Suite however the AC in that room did not work either. Asked for another room and was moved to a 2 queen bed room. Each room was a down grade from what I had booked and paid for.

Beautiful short stay. The front desk staff was amazing. Excellent waitress and breakfast buffet too. So many food choices. Good quality and presentation, Great bar with homemade pizza. Excellent bartenders. Pool tables, gambling machines. Good happy hour. The managing staff who checked rooms were nice too. Housekeeping was my issue. Not enough wash cloths, mildew in tub area. Drain pulled out. Toilet paper hung terribly. Next day towels replaced, beds not made. Really? Such a disappointment. Make the beds. No sign was on the door, which is why they came in to clean bathrooms. Toilet paper was still messy. I will stay again. Good hotel prices.

The location of The Mead was convenient. The morning breakfast was poor. The food (even though sitting in heating pans) was cold. Our tub drain plunger did not work. We reported these issues at checkout.

Friendly and helpful receptionist. Old property and dusty, and the pillows were not my preference. We also had trouble getting consistent hot water on our second morning, although the hot shower worked well the first night.

The breakfast was fresh and good. One staff member checked in each guest by asking for their room number and frequently walked around to assist guests during breakfast service. I would rather pay an extra $10 for a newer place.

There was no heat in my room and the front desk clerk gave me a tiny space heater. I stayed there again the following month and, again no heat- you can hear it start up but can barely feel it coming out of the vent and the room was cold in the morning. They just redid their pool though- maybe they should have gotten the heating system working. I hear there is no air conditioning here either. Unfortunately if you are coming to Rapids to work at the hospital, this is the closest hotel.

We stayed in the older part of the hotel. Some of the hallways really needed a good vacuum cleaning. Our rooms air was not working well at all. Room was clean, but, there looked to be a swedish fish candy stuck to the ceiling! Very strange!

Elevators need to be cleaned and vacuumed
Offer a medium roast coffee in rooms, please - not just dark/decaf
Brighter bulbs in lamps in rooms would be nice, I had to turn on every light to really be able to see well. One table lamp flickered on and off, I unplugged and plugged in a floor lamp that was not plugged in.

This was 100% the worst stay I've ever had! pool and hot tub was not working. When I booked the night before was told it would be. Then breakfast was not warm and most was burnt or not fully cooked. Check out was 11am at 945 housekeeping just walked right in on us no knock or anything! Should 100% be a rule about that! Only good thing was the Whitney restaurant which you pay more for! Also menus for this place in the room is ALOT cheaper than when you look at menus when you get in the restaurant. Needs to be updated! Its false advertising! Will not be staying again. Waste of money!

Hotel was not really worth the money and definitely not the extra fee they charge for the “resort” type fee…. Room was very hot, pool/jacuzzi was not working. Breakfast wasn’t great either! Definitely not recommended!

Over all the hotel was nice but my room was EXTREMELY dusty, and when I ordered food at the restaurant it wasn’t completely cooked, I’d stay there again just to make sure it wasn’t an odd day.

Hotel was very nice. We had an issue with the heating unit making a loud humming noice. They switched us to a different room… walked in and it was the same loud humming noise. I called the front desk to let them know this room has the same noise coming from the heating unit… he seemed annoyed so I apologized for being an inconvenience and hung up. We just dealt with the load humming noise all night. Other than that, nice place

The place was a pleasure to stay with my family. There are not a lot of options for a family of 5, but this place was a blast. The kids enjoyed the large pool. The only downside is some of the fixtures and furniture is a little outdated, but you can tell they are working to make this place something special.

The staff were very kind and helpful. There was no bedding for the pull out couch and the bedding they did bring was the wrong size. The king comforter had what appeared to be a blood stain… The sheets, bed and pillows were all clean though. The pool area was nice, the hot tub was scorching hot though to the point we couldn’t even use it. Overall it was a great experience and we could stay again.
