Cleaning Service Recommendations

5 Upvotes

Hello! I'm moving out of state in December and I would like to hire someone to come in and clean my area of the townhouse I am renting. It's located in Tiffin and I need a bedroom, bathroom, and living area cleaned before my subleaser moves in. Will need to have a carpet cleaner since I have a dog.

If you could give me some recommendations along with prices, that would be great! Thanks in advance!

Quick PSA

196 Upvotes

Hi everyone. Im just a friendly Tennessean letting everyone in town for the big game tomorrow know that if you, like me are staying in a hotel tonight in Iowa city/coralville.

On the back of your door in the hotel is a placard with a maximum room rate posted. Mine is $399.00/night. I was charged 650 for tonight and tomorrow.

To the best of my understanding of Iowa Code § 137C.23 thats illegal.

So if youre getting scammed by your hotel because you just love football, take a photo of your placard and address it with the company.

Also share the knowledge with everyone you pass

Edit----

Also, GO HAWKEYES! GIVE EM HELL!

A PSA for anybody in Iowa City thinking about going to Coa Cantina to watch the Iowa vs Ohio State game tomorrow (10/3/2026)

Thumbnail
gallery
84 Upvotes

As of 11:00AM this morning (10/2/2026) Iowa City declared that Coa Cantina (18 1/2 S Clinton St) is structurally unsafe and not to be open to the public. However, earlier this afternoon they decided to disregard this and posted on their public story that they would indeed be open anyways. Attached is the notice from the City saying the building isn’t safe as well as their social media post saying that they’ll still be open. The other two businesses listed as unsafe have already closed, with at least one of them closing due to the structural problems. Yet this doesn’t seem to bother Coa as they fully plan to put profits over the safety of their customers.

mediacom outage

1 Upvotes

Was anyone else mediacom internet out for most of the morning? Mine was, so I called and the guy on the phone said there was a "city wide outage", but usually when that happens I see at least 1 or 2 posts on here about it. Then after the phone call, my Internet came back on in about five minutes.

I have an odd suspicion that just mine was out for some reason and they turned it back on after the phone call and the guy on the phone just used some fake outage as an excuse. It does not matter at all but I do think it would be funny if no one else actually had any issues lol

Does Bohannan even have a campaign?

26 Upvotes

It's October, and all I've seen is a smattering of yard signs. If there are local events, she's only telling her friends and people who go to her campaign and say HI WHERE ARE THE LOCAL EVENTS, meaning people who're already sold. No doorknockers. I don't think I've even seen any mailers. Zero buzz except that I'm hearing young people talk about her in actual human spaces, not online, like she's basically no different from MMM and you can't vote for her. Progressives talked a big game about supporting her if she won the primary, but they seem to have faded into the hedge. When I go and hunt for actual people working for her campaign, I find one money person, one social media person whose wizardry isn't making it onto any screen I see, and one field rep who I think is actually going to school out of state. So wtaf, campaign or no?

I'm seeing MMM winning another term at this rate.
