I stayed at this EconoLodge in Ames on the way through. The queen bed room was very basic. The furniture was sparse and cheap looking. The TV was about a 32 inch flat screen which was nice. The carpet looks like it needed replacement which I understand they are in the process of doing in many rooms. The bathroom was... More

This stay was good. We came on a busy weekend when lots of hotels were booked. We usually stay at another hotel, which we really like. The breakfast choices were very good, but they weren't able to restock quickly. Our room had a fridge and microwave (ask for one), had comfortable beds, and was clean.

Very nice motel and room. Were able to have ground level room as requested. Staff was very nice. Great service! Room was clean. Breakfast was very good and fresh. We had a lot to choose from. I would gladly recommend them. Motel was right off the freeway so it is easy to find. An excellent value for the money! Lots... More

This hotel was very nice and the price was also great! The rooms were clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. It's also a quick ride to downtown Ames which is nice to go out to and have dinner and drinks. I would definitely recommend staying here.

The hotel is very clean, the room was spacious and beds super comfortable. For the price you pay it is a good deal. Breakfast, well, continental but my grandkids were thrilled for they made their own waffles. I think on weekends they should extend the breakfast time, sort of start and end a little bit later, like from 7 to... More

Booked 2 rooms for my folks to stay during June, 2012. Knowing that we would be busy and only needing a place to sleep, we decided to try this Econo Lodge. Crossed our fingers and hoped we would not be disappointed! We were not disappointed. Very satisfied. Keep in mind that this is an older hotel and the rooms are... More
