I recently had to go to Iowa City for a specialized operation.  The hospital gave us a list of Hotels/Motels that offered a discount for patients and their families.

We chose The Heartland Inn because my wife wanted a place close easy to get to and from the hospital.  It cost us $20 a night less than the regular price because of the medical discount.  The room was as nice as many we’ve stay in, it was quiet and comfortable.  A couple of things, the free breakfast (I wasn’t allowed to eat J) was pretty nice.  They had free coffee, hot chocolate and I think espresso all day.  While we were there they had a supper.  Not elegant but more than adequate and it was free.  While there was only one bathroom in our room I was surprised to find 3 bathrooms between our room and the lobby.  All were pretty nice, clean and certainly an asset for people with medical problems. A well lit parking lot of generous size was nice too.

I know this might not be of interest to a lot of people but if you are going to University of Iowa Hospitals in Iowa City it might be of interest.
