“Our favorite place to stay in Ames! The location can’t be beat. But that wouldn’t mean much if it weren’t also clean, with good food and amenities, nice employees, and chill atmosphere. I’ve neglected to give such a great review before because it can be full on busy weekends and we’ve had to go to our 2nd fave place (Gateway), but our last ISU kid is about to graduate, so we can share the secret now. Plan ahead and return to your favorite rooms again and again. ”

“No host check in was great! Communication was wonderful! Rooms are so spacious and comfortable. Location was perfect for us. Within walking distance of everything we needed. Will stay here again!”

“Absolutely lovely property, conveniently located walking distance to downtown restaurants (though get ready for a little workout climbing back up the hill!) I was the only guest the night that I stayed, though the breakfast area was roomy enough for a full house. Simple breakfast fare done very, very well. Would definitely stay here again.”

“Lovely and quite area, however a bit of a ways away from town. I wish we had more time to spend in this lovely home and enjoy the amenities. We arrived late and unfed and they kindly provided me with provisions which was above and beyond. Had our best sleep of our cross-country journey here and would definitely visit again if in the area. ”

“Amazing antiques & flowers all around mansion & carriage house. They are still working on completing the renovations which was good for us because we got to go thru all the rooms & see all the furnishings. When we arrived Expedia hadn't notified staff (Dave & Pete) that we were coming but we had made reservations within an hour-ish before. So, our room hadn't been cleaned. We went to dinner & came back to a clean room. We really didn't like the shower, the curtain sticks to your body no matter……

“We were passing through on a motorcycle trip. The hotel was just as described. Nothing too fancy and no interaction with anyone while checking in or out. There was a cool looking bar area but it was closed for a private party. Not many dinner choices around the area however we took a beautiful stroll along the water to the marina where we had a drink and dinner. ”

“This beautiful, historic Victorian home was an absolute find. We got very lucky booking it at the last minute to attend the Tulip Time Festival in Pella since it is fairly new to VRBO. Jeff, who is the owner/operator, was the best host we’ve had with VRBO. He was super friendly and made us feel comfortable to use all the common areas of the house. He provided us with many ideas of things to do in the area and even surprised us with dinner twice and special Tulip Time wine and beer which is……
