We came for our son’s orientation at ISU, and the hotel was such a nice part about our trip. I usually do not get on and post a comment, but this hotel wow'd me and my family. The rooms and the whole hotel were so clean, and warm. The breakfast lady was so nice and sweet to my kids, and helping us every morning of our stay. The front desk girls were always friendly. We did have our ice maker in our room not work, but the manager personally apologized to us, and had it repaired right away. We will be coming to Ames for the next four years off and on, and I and my husband will not even consider staying anywhere else! This hotel is the best!
