Ames Hotels

The pool area was very nice. The main pool was heated well. Breakfast was good.

The hotel was very nice and clean. The room was big and the beds were comfortable kids loved the pool and hot tub. Easy access to Iowa state

No free breakfast. The breakfast buffet was really overpriced for mediocre food.

Clean rooms, friendly staff. Comfortable bed.

Room and common areas were pretty clean and smelled good. The room was a decent size, and the hotel staff was friendly and courteous. The complimentary breakfast was better than most I've eaten.

Bathroom in the room was clean on the surface, but there was mildew around the hand hold in the shower, and under the toilet rim.

College tour of IA State

Very friendly staff. Felt safe

Probably should have called the front desk. People in room 149 were very very loud. At 11:30 pm I banged on the wall to let them know we were upset. They banged back at us. It was only about 10 minutes later they were silent Someone should walk halls more

Just right for a college visit.

breakfast was minimal, not much to offer.

Clean, all the amenities I needed, exactly what I was looking for.

Free breakfast would have been nice.

I called to book with them direct as I was in a panic. My daughter was sick and at school in Ames and needed me to be there. The rate over the phone was almost $60 more than the rate online. I loved the lesser option. The front desk staff was amazing. On the evening of Sept 26th and the morning of the 27th. They were all great. I will say I was shocked when there was a knock on my door at 9am from housekeeping. I had NEVER heard of that before checkout time, unless the staff was thinking the room was likely vacant. My daughter was sleeping. I went downstairs to let them know that that is not something I appreciated since we had until Noon. The Nice young lady (Amazing) was very apologetic and offered free breakfast coupons for the inconvenience. Finally, the dark, curly haired young man that was serving at breakfast that day was AMAZING. he went above and beyond and sadly I did not have any cash to tip him. I would stay again. I would stay there every time when we are in Ames, but it now will depend on rates and restrictions.

I was frustrated because we know we have to go back to Ames on Nov 1st for an event. I tried to book with Hilton and the room rate was $268 for a king with a two night min. This is Ames, IA. I found a place I like, but it impossible to get a reasonable room. I already book with someone else that night.

The staff was helpful and friendly

not very clean! for --- per night, it should have been spotless!! It smelled of mildew, the bathroom was very dirty. Should invest in a new shower curtain!!

I would not stay here gain, as there were nicer hotels at better prices! I cannot believe I paid almost --- a night for this hotel! We were also told that there is FRESH coffee made 24/7, but when we were leaving at 5am, to head back to Colorado, there was nothing. The staff offered to make a fresh pot, but who has time to wait around, especially with 2 small children. So disappointing all around!!

The suite was very comfortable and we had everything we needed. Beds were very comfortable and hotel very quiet even though it was full.

The pool and hot tub is very small.

The breakfast is very good. Met our family needs. But seating was a little difficult. Few tables and small area made it difficult to get what you needed.

Nothing fancy, I agree with other reviewers. Clean, basic accommodations, cramped location but close to shops and restaurants, some road noise from S. Duff, nothing fancy. We mainly needed a place to sleep prior to our campus visit. Reasonable rate and easy access.

I took my daughter to ISU for a college visit. We stayed here one night. It was close to all in the town and only minutes away from the college. The staff at the front desk was a student at ISU and gave us good tips for getting around.

It is too bad this isn't utilized more. The staff were great, the hot tub and pool were nice, and the location was easy to get to and in a safe area. The only downfall was no continental breakfast.

Very nice hotel. Great location, friendly staff. The address is actually 2609 University Blvd. (it

Good morning breakfast

Door key card did not always work

The staff

the smell

Breakfast had many choices.

Brealfast space very limited.

I loved that there were jet bathtubs in all the rooms. How awesome! Everything was clean and the beds were comfy.

The fan on the wall was confusing to operate. (We need noise when we sleep and we couldn't figure that thing out)

Great B & B with great hot breakfast.

No hair dryer in our room

I have stayed with this hotel chain several times before. Quite nice.

Room was too warm and pillows too large.. needed a smaller option. They must have been new.

Very clean hotel, with a great breakfast.

Hot tub would be a nice addition

Location; accepted pets; price; easy check in and check out process

Rooms/hotel needs to be updated; make pool area more inviting; maintenance is a BIG deal always!! Keep all walk areas, especially side doors clean and clear.

The employees were quite rude.

The cleanliness and snow removal left much to be desired. We slept on top of the covers. Also had to go through knee high snow to get out of our room after a snow storm at 10am. It hadn't snowed at that point for 10 hours.

Hotel was nicely laid out and very clean, and staff was friendly. Breakfast was also better than average.

Technology left much to be desired. The TV took more than 5 minutes once turned on using the remote, and once the green light was on. WiFi was not seamless either, and speed was not great.

This hotel was very clean and updated. Warm cookie at the front desk and nice staff.

The location is Ok but would prefer it closer to ISU campus.

I would definately stay here for the price I got it. I would even stay with my family if I was there for a trip.
