COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) — A Council Bluffs hotel is offering free rooms over the Thanksgiving weekend to people in town to see a family member or friend at a hospital or treatment facility. The Omaha World-Herald reports that the Fairfield Inn & Suites participates in a program called Rooms in the Inn. The initiative was started by parent company TMI Hospitality, which offers this program at the company’s hotels across the country.

Under the program, anyone in town to visit somebody in a hospital, nursing home or treatment facility can seek a free room over the Thanksgiving weekend. The hotel will also offer free rooms on Christmas and Christmas Eve.

General Manager Diana Palmer says the hotel participates as a way to give back to the community.
