GREAT PLACE TO STAY
Jay, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Let us do a late check in and had great customer service!
Ali, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good stay in Ames. The hotel was clean and comfortable, with friendly staff at the front desk. Breakfast was simple but convenient. The room was fine for resting, though some areas could use a little update. Overall, good value for a stay.
Edwin, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff was very helpful!
David, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

The most notable things were the urine stains on the bathroom wall and the paint chips in the stairwell. The facility is in need of fresh paint.
Craig, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Housekeeping was terrible.
Laura, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

The hotel smelled horrible. The halls the room all smelled of mildew etc. The doors on sides of hotel where not secured and there where half full Ind bottles of shampoo and conditioner in the room.
Michael, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The beds were super comfy and the room was great. Staff was very pleasant and helpful. The breakfast however was less than desirable. When we got there at 8:30 there was only one egg, lots of sausages and no biscuits and gravy. The breakfast area was very dirty.
Kathy, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

The door to the room was left ajar prior to our arrival. The shower curtain was moldy, so the room had an odor. The breakfast cereal was stale.
Emily, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

No protein for bathrooms was full of hair and the ceiling had a huge mold spot
Kelly, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved our stay. Felt safe & clean
Stephanie, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

We were there during Cy-Hawk weekend and paid over $400 for a night. The room we were in was extremely outdated! While the bed was comfortable, I would compare the rest to a basic low-budget motel room. The bathroom and tub were very old and the shower curtain was missing rings. The drain to the tub as on the side, which shows just how old that tub must have been. I want to thank the nice staff, but we will never stay there again.
Mai-Anh, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Smelled musty and not very clean. Needs a renovation. Very expensive for quality.
Patricia, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

First impression walking into our room was the musty smell. Bathroom needs a dire update, aside from the mold along the baseboards and probably the ceiling tile with water spots all over. The cherry on top was the little cricket in our room that we could hear chirping all night long and into the morning. There’s more I could say, especially about the breakfast but I’m going to leave it at that. Thank you for providing a place for us to sleep but we will never be staying here again.
Shannon, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very easy check in, nice building well cared for, and great swimming pool!
Amy, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

You get what you pay for. The room, linens, and towels were clean. The safe in the room was broken. Walls are paper-thin, so we could hear our neighbors in the room next to us the entire time. The air conditioning unit had mold on the vents, so I wasn’t comfortable turning it on until after I scrubbed it down. If you’re not picky, it’s fine. But I wouldn’t recommend it unless better options aren’t available.
Devon, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I was very easy to find and the parking was great

Paul, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Solid place to stay

Was a good place to stay for the night. Didn't use the pool or breakfast so no comments there, but the room was comfortable and the staff was kind and helpful.
Marshall, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible stay. Pool was closed by the health department. Rooms were dirty. Nothing worked in the “workout” room. Restaurant/bar was closed and for sale.
Deanna, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Just okay

Musty smelling, dirty grout in bathroom SO outdated! Beds were comfortable! No washcloths
Marianne, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great value for the money.
Joseph, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room itself was good, clean, bed was comfy, bathroom was clean, toilet needs some working on as you have to hold the flusher down for like 20 seconds for all your bodily contents to go down the toilet, the elevator by the back entrance smells like a homeless individual camped out in it for a while and the carpets needs replaced in that bad boy, also the back doors don’t stay locked for safety. We stayed for 3 days and the back door was never locked. The breakfast was good, tv worked fine. Internet didn’t work the first day, but the second day was fixed. Overall, it was okay.
Vienna, 3-night trip
