We have stayed twice in another Americinn in another city and were very satisfied. Less so with this one. The maintenance and cleanliness of the room could have been improved. The first thing I did when I came in the room was pick up a gum wrapper off the floor which led me to believe that it had not been... more

The Ames Americinn is a standard member of the Americinn chain, they meet the expectations I have of that chain. The main entrance has a nice "prairie house" decor, breakfast area and balcony above to the second floor.

I love this hotel! I stayed here during the ACVP exam and it was wonderful. The people were amazing and made my stay so pleasant (or as pleasant can be expected given the reason I was in town).

I just returned home from a one nights stay at the AmericInn in Ames, IA. I thought the front desk was very nice and courteous; however, the hotel had some problems. The first think I noticed when I walked in the room was the smell (we got a non-smoking room). The smell was sort of a mix between a dirty... more

I visit Ames serveral times a year, and this is the only place I'll stay. It's reasonably priced, the bed are comfortable, and the rooms and common areas are always neat and clean. I have no idea why one reviewer said it was "smelly." Not my experience. The only drawback is that it books fast, namely when events are in... more

Awful stay.......We stayed for a hockey tournament, and the room was terrible. Smelled and dirty. Would not recommend this to anyone. more

We have stayed here twice now. A very clean, soundproof room. Nice continental breakfast. Easy off and on highway access. We recommend it highly. more
