We booked a jacuzzi suite here after a long, hard, day, because I love the breakfast at the Country Inn chains, and the jacuzzi so that we could relax our tired muscles. First I went to put my soda in the fridge, and it was turned off. The overflow freezer tray was full of water and a soaked towel was... More

Recently stayed here for the first time. I have stayed in many Ames hotels in the last 4 years. We stayed in the room 208 Suite. It was $234; however, it was larger than most of the one-bedroom apartments in Ames. One of the most comfortable king-size beds I have ever slept in, in a hotel. The staff was fantastic... More

We traveled to Ames to visit Iowa State University, which is 10 minutes away. With a younger sibling, it's helpful to have a two-room suite so he can get to bed earlier. Our suite had a king in one room, then a queen and pull-out sofa in another - perfect for 5 people. The free cookies at the front desk... More

First of all let me say that I have stayed in numerous county inns and suites all across the US. I have actually stayed at this hotel on several occasions in the past. I chose this hotel based on its perceived “value”. According to the country inn and suites website indicates that there are evening cocktails that are complimentary for... More

First time at this hotel and I was very happy with my stay. Very competive rates if not lower. Nice rooms and wonderful breakfast. Staff was very helpful and willing to go out of their way to help. You don't see that very often anymore. Will stay again!

Stayed on a Friday night with my husband & son to attend the State Lego League tournament. Staff was great. They had happy hour, free wine & beer that we were able to take advantage of. Kept the 'bar' open longer than usual for our needs so the kids could all eat together. Rooms were nothing special but suited are... More

This Country Inn is a really easy on/off from US 30 in Ames. My room was clean, and the beds had wonderful thick duvets on them - perfect for winter sleeping. The fridge was a little small, and the microwave sounded like it needed a new fan belt ;-), but my room location was superb. It overlooked a small pond... More

I spoke to front desk cleak, Alicia, late on a Thursday night since a hotel where we were going to stay had very small rooms. She let me come to the hotel, look at a suite, and book it immediately. She really saved me from dealing with cranky kids and it was much appreciated! I also met several house keepers... More
