Parking space was good. For the amount that I paid for the room the condition of the room needs a lot of repair mostly in the bathroom.☹️ I thought the room was overpriced for the condition.

If you have a weak stomach from smells do not stay there. The room was clean. The stool didn’t work. The smell in the office and hallway was terrible. I even used Lysol spray and that couldn’t cut it.

Great stay

It was great! We ended up staying 2 nights, the hotel is connected to a great Mexican restaurant and across the street from a McDonald's and Dairy Queen. Very friendly and helpful staff. We didn't use the indoor pool but it looked very clean.

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

Hotel was fine. No frills. No breakfast. Pool was closed for maintenance. Staff was friendly and super helpful. Good location right on a major road in Boone. Hotel old but kept up OK. Strong musty smell in room when we arrived. We needed a couple air fresheners. Overall, OK but should be cheaper.

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.

The property was clean but dated. Our service was fine. The "continental breakfast" was coffee/juice and a honey bun from a box. The pool was closed for the season, even though it's an indoor pool. There is a connected Mexican restaurant, which was convenient. The room price was maybe a little high for what we received.
