Larchwood, Iowa — The Grand Falls Casino in Larchwood had an unwelcome waterfall in the hotel right before the New Year.
General Manager Sharon Hasselhoff says the extreme cold led to pipes breaking.
Haselhoff says water poured down from the third floor and damaged 18 rooms, the spa and a meeting room.
She says the water not only drenched drywall and furnishings, it also left an unpleasant odor.
Hasselhoff blames the sub-zero cold for the pipes breaking.
Haselhoff says they have started ripping out the drywall on the third floor and will work their way down to make repairs. She is not sure how long the repairs will take.
