    It is a nice hotel to stay in when we visit college students and go to the games. It is conveniently located and a up to date clean hotel. We were slightly disappointed in our room during this visit. The room was not as clean as it usually is and our heater was as loud as an airliner in our room and kicked in every 20 minutes. A restful sleep was d […] ifficult. Read more

    Staff were unloading tables and chairs off the elevator at 10:00 pm. They were holding a discussion right outside our room on the second floor. Do not get a room near the elevator if you stay in this facility.

    The overall hotel stay was very nice. My husband and I, alumni of ISU, came with some friends for a football game. We were relatively close to the campus and field, which was nice. The beds were very comfortable, the bathrooms were nice as well. The only downside is that somehow in our 2-night stay we never had housekeeping come and take out the trash, […] make-up the beds, change towels, etc. Kind of expected and kind of disappointing for a hotel that was nice otherwise. Also, the bar didn't open until 5, which for vacationing adults visiting their old college was a bit of a disappointment. However, a convenience store is right next door with plenty of other options.

    The staff was very freeindly at checking and anytime was passed through the lobby. Even offered cookies and bottled water.The hotel is on the west end of Ames where there isn't a lot going on, but it is just off the highway and still close to campus. Not a lot of places to eat nearby, but Ames isn't that big.

    Quiet location, away from traffic and noise and easy access to interstate. Small but very workable workout room, could use a large fan for air circulation. Inexpensive breakfast but healthy. Staff very helpful and attentive to your request. Freshly baked cookies was a nice treat though they didn't last long.

    I was disappointed they only left 2 shower towels after cleaning room when there was clearly 3 they picked up and i registered my room for 2 adults and a child. After housekeeping was in our room i found the coffee pouch in the middle of the floor thanks for cleansing the coffee pot and leaving more coffee but i not impressed when i found the used one […] on the floor. We were in town for soccer tournament and after being out side in the heat all day went to check in to our room and had to wait 40 min and that was us even coming to check in after 3 which is check in Time i understand things run late but i would hope knowing what the event was why all these people were in town and the heat our children were in it would have been nice to get to our room. Not sure i will be choosing this hotel again for the money i spent just not that impressed Read more

    the overall hotel is nice and well kept. however, we had our children with and when using the swimming pool had to go to the front desk every time to ask for towels as there were none in the pool area. the last time we swam, none were brought, someone went into the workout room and took towels from there just so people could dry off.

    The beds were very hard. Even though the beds had the ability to soften or get harder. We had our turned be be as soft as possible, and it still gave me a headache. We were able to check in early, which we really appreciated. All the staff we met or interacted with were very nice. The room was clean, and the service was excellent. The pool is kind of […] small, but without many guests, our kids had a great time. The bathroom was clean, with the exceptions of the shower that contained mildow around the edges. We will stay there again, as we like the location and price. Read more

    There were potato chips in the chair in the room - so made me wonder what else was not clean. Only 1 bar of soap - so we had to share it with the shower. One day they did not give us a bath mat either. We booked this a long time ago for a king bed, they did not have one when we arrived

    The hotel was really great. The only problem was a non-working exhaust fan but that was no big deal. It has adjustable beds and the pool and hot tub were great. The breakfast buffet isn't a bad deal at 10 dollars for all you can eat. I would stay again when I am headed that way.

    We had a nice stay here. The only thing that bugged me, was that when I checked in the clerk said, "have a great stay". And then, I walked thru with my bags & such three times, she said the same thing to me. This place has a good breakfast buffet with a nice variety, or you could have breakfast made to order.

    The hotel was pretty nice but when we got to our room there was left over food from the last guests in our fridge. I think the cost was way too much considering our room wasn't clean and it doesn't come with breakfast. We paid for the breakfast and there wasn't hardly anything out. I wont be going back

    Mattress was a little too hard for me, but everything else was great. We got back from our event late Sunday morning and the staff were cleaning up the breakfast buffet- the coffee was all gone. The waitress kindly offered to make a fresh pot. The coffee is great. Very pleasant stay.

    Hotel was really noisy with kids above us that we could hear jumping for hours followed by young teenage girls that were in the hallways yelling until all hours of the night. The hotel management can't really control this, but ti proved that the doors were not well sealed to hallway noises and the floors reminded me of a Super 8. The night before the […] kids all arrived we had a good night sleep. So, overall, I would stay at this hotel again, but I would definitely request the top floor - 3rd to alleviate the possible nose through the floor above you. Read more

    I asked for a handicapped room and did not have one when I arrived, but they changed it and got me one, with little quibbling, and they were very kind about it. When I got to the room, there were no hand towels or any of the shampoo and soap that is usually in rooms. I know it should have been there, as there was a little rack for it. I went downstairs […] to the desk and told them about it and was given shampoo and whatever else I needed with no problem, and a very heartfelt apology. It is a gorgeous hotel, and when you have problems walking, the beds they have there, that can be adjusted to be harder or softer are a dream come true. This is by far the best hotel I have stayed in at Ames, and since I have a child at Iowa State, I have stayed in a LOT of hotels there. I will never stay in another hotel but this one. The four was only because the stuff was missing, and I have a feeling it was just an oversight. They were more then kind about getting new stuff to me, and I HIGHLY recommend this hotel. Read more

    The rooms had paper thin walls, so noise was a problem. The towels seemed like they were used a thousand times - thin and dingy. The bed was awful to sleep on. We have stayed at Hilton Garden Inns before and they were great. This was terrible!
