Disappointed wife!
Wife was highly disappointed! Booked the room there because it had a hot tub. Upon arrival we discovered the hot tub was out of service. Booked the room for 4 guest 2 adults and 2 kids. Was charged an extra $25 at the time of check in because my oldest kid was above the age of 12. I've never had that happen to me before.

Extremely disappointed
I accidentally booked the wrong location which I’m not sure how it happened since I was searching hotels in Ames. Hotels.com could not get a refund and I was charged over $220 dollars for this hotel even though I still booked at AmericInn in the correct city. Very upset.

Needs a lot updating
Was upgraded to room that had a new mattress so that was good. Everything is very outdated, and the cleanliness was okay. Would not recommend or will not be staying again.

The hotel needs updated. The hot tub was not working and after reading other reviews, hadn't been working for months. The lobby furniture was worn out. The business center was being used as storage. The mattresses were rather old and also worn out. It was the cheapest hotel, but for the condition, not cheap enough.

I liked the staff and the room was spotless. The hotel smelled of mold. The hot tub was drained in the pool area, but quite clean in the room.

Stayed here the weekend of June 7th-9th. Checked in. Asked for # of guest said 4. Wanted to charge a different room rate due to "waffle mix" for breakfast. Told them we wont eat breakfast there. Myself, wife, 3yr old and 12yr old who stayed. Get to room, Tv stand was 3/4 broken and tv didnt work. Room had 2 hand towels 2 face towels 1 drying towel and a floor towel. Told staff bout tv. Tried to fix it still didnt work. Left to do something after a long day of baseball, called the hotel to ask what is being done about the tv, he asked were we in the room said no his reponse was if you not in the room why worry about the tv. You not there to watch it. I said we paid for the room that included a tv. We were trying to be patient as it didnt work Friday either. Sunday, woke up to shower, yup you guessed it, no hot water. All the guess were complaining. Was told that we would get some type of refund. Still havent received that. Couple good things, the pool was heated but the hot tub was broken. The bathroom in the pool area was pretty clean. Good location.

We did a one night stay. I will say the lobby area and hallways were definitely hot. Rooms air was off as well but I understand that to save money. But room was clean it seems that they are about to remodel. They had boxes and caution tape around certain areas. Pool was just right temp. The staff was extremely helpful and nice.
