This is the best hotel I have stayed at in recent memory. From the cleanliness of the room, to the comfort of the bed and bedding (which I am very sensitive to), to the proximity to Iowa State, to the breakfast variety, to the quiet, I was impressed in every way. I will definitely recommend this hotel to family and friends who are heading to Ames. I also got a good rate, too! Great two nights!
