Cornhusker Hotel The, Lincoln, Nebraska Restaurant Details

Food:

The hotel was located in downtown Lincoln, right next to the venue we were at, which was very nice! The staff was all ready to be helpful, although everything was nice, so we had little need of them. The room was also very comfortable.

Food:

I'm a teacher in Nebraska who has to regularly take students to Lincoln. This is a decent hotel - the rooms are nice, the staff was relatively nice... but there are a couple dealbreakers for me.

First, they "forgot" to clean one of my students' rooms. That isn't a good sign in terms of cleanliness.

Secondly... NO FREE WIFI IN THE ROOMS. Seriously, Cornhusker? The Super 8 can afford free WiFi, and you charge 3 times what they do. My students had homework they needed to get done, and I had work to do as well. I can't expect broke high school students to pay $8 for WiFi to do their homework. There is free WiFi in the lobby - but it's incredibly slow. They really want to make you pay extra for something that is typically free.

That's a dealbreaker for me. In 2015, there's no excuse for not having free WiFi in the rooms. It's an industry standard at this point (and has been for 10+ years.) I will be requesting another hotel next time I bring students to Lincoln.

We have stayed at this hotel a few times now and each stay is a little worse. The first couple times was during their renovation so it was just a bit inconvenient to get to things but not the end of the world, staff was decently pleasant those stays. This last stay we stayed and it was finished. I made a reservation with the request of a king bed. First two double beds or a king should not be an option together. Someone wanting a king bed almost will never want a double bed. The request was not met and my husband and I would like to sleep in the same bed and a double is not long enough for him. Then we could hear our neighbors next to us the entire time with their talking, laughing and loud sounds both nights. We called customer service and they said they would take care of it. It was still an issue that night and the next so we did not sleep well. The front desk gentlemen that checked us in was extremely unfriendly. Then I left behind a personal belonging. I called that afternoon around 3-4 and they told me they would check on the item. Never heard back so I called again about 7-8. I was told they did not have the ability to look for the item and that no one was there to check and nothing was noted about finding it and I could leave that department a voicemail. Then I called Monday around 4 or 5 after not receiving a call that day and no one was in that department that could help that day so I was told I could leave another voicemail because they guessed no one came in that day and they had no way to get in to lost and found to look for the item. Then I called back that Tuesday during the day and they told me they still did not know if the item was there and wanted to transfer me to that department. No one picked up so I told them I wanted to speak to the manager of that department or the general manager and then they told me they would go check on the item. Low and behold they found the item themselves (after being told they could not do that the other times I called) and my husband was able to pick it up cause he was in town again that week. I have worked for Marriott for over 3 years before and know how good hotels operate. This would not be a good operating hotel. Very disappointing in this hotel and that it calls itself a Marriott. I am still a loyal Marriott guest but will never stay with this hotel again.

Food:

Very nice hotel. I was here for 5 nights for business; very comfortable beds and room overall. Staff very helpful and responsive. I recommend them.

I am a Platinum Elite Marriott rewards member. On 8/20/15 I had contact with an employee of the Lincoln Nebraska Cornhusker by phone. Her name was Lisa and I did not tell her I was a Platinum Elite member. I just asked a couple of clearly answerable questions. In her haste to get out of doing her job all she could say is, "I'll put you through to reservations", she told me it was impossible for her to tell me if there was availability between two dates. If you call this facility and get Lisa, ask for someone else. :>(
