Its an older smaller place but the rooms are Very clean and comfortable and the staff/owners are very friendly! I had to move my college freshman home and it was also graduation at ISU so Ames was super expensive and this was conveniently close to campus and much less cost! Would happily stay again when i head back on parents weekend in the fall

The hotel was quite expensive for how old and dingy it was and the smell matched. The smell made me nauseous. No breakfast and pool was closed. Would not recommend.

Steven

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
It was clean and the A/C worked. Pool was closed on hottest days of June. Sign said "Closed for the winter", which tells me they weren't ambitious enough to get it ready by the middle of June. No breakfast, just coffee and juice. I had to turn on the coffee in our second day there. Nice people running the place, but just doing what they have to at this time.
