“Loved the suite”

Reviewed 27 April 2013

Wonderful stay. Nice sized one bedroom suite. Two TVs. Housekeeping friendly. Nice pool and hot tub. Breakfast was tasty every day. We didn't use the kitchen, but everything was nice and clean. If I find myself needing to stay overnight in Ames, they would be top on my list

“Grand Stay”

Reviewed 5 April 2013

Very nice suites although a little on the smaller side. Felt a bit cramped, but the rooms were clean and was the halls and stairways. Daily breakfasts (waffles, cereals, limited fruit, and an egg burrito or omelettes) are good. There is an indoor pool, although, again, a little on the smaller side. All in all, if you are staying in... More

“Beware - No Daily Housekeeping - Barely Useable Kitchen”

Reviewed 15 October 2012

We paid $200+ per night for a 2 room suite with full kitchen. The kitchen came with 2 forks, 3 spoons, 4 table knives, misc. plates/bowls/cups. No frying pan, just one medium sized stock pot. The one cup coffee maker leaked half the coffee through the bottom and all over the counter. We requested a frying pan and a couple... More

I was pleasantly surprised by our stay at the GrandStay this past weekend. The room fit our family of four (two adults, two children under 5) just perfectly. We had a separate bedroom with the children sleeping in the living area (including a pack-n-play.) We were close to our tailgating lot and to the ISU football game, so we were... More

Used an "Ames Cool Deal" so we got the room half-price which was awesome! Great breakfast, and love the separation of bedrooms. The breakfast was yummy.

“Price, Price, Price is great”

Reviewed 29 November 2011

The rooms a large. A separate bedroom, living area with fold out couch and a nice kitchenette. They have a nice self serve breakfast and there is an indoor swimming pool. Restaurants are across the parking lot. Easy access to the University and the downtown area. We compared prices and the GrandStay gave us the most for our money.
