Anna at the check in desk was absolutely amazing. So kind and helpful. If I ever need a hotel in Ames again, I’ll come back here just because of her kindness.

The staff were all welcoming and kind. The building and rooms were extremely clean, including our dog-friendly room. We brought our beagle who had a nice time. I was surprised by the $85 pet fee but I suppose it helps keeps the property and rooms spotless. (I've only had to pay to too $40 at other hotels/motels.) The complimentary Continental breakfast was standard but still delicious and appreciated.

We had a larger room since we were going to be there three nights. The room was wonderful. The hotel was wonderful but the breakfast was disappointing. We had just stayed in two other brands of hotels on our trip and the others offered a better variety of hot breakfast and sweets. We were offered eggs and potatoes all three days, along with chicken sausage on two days and something else the third day. Chicken sausage?? Really? The other hotels had biscuits and gravy in addition to eggs and sausage. There were also no sweet rolls. This hotel was much more than the others. I'll stay somewhere else when we visit my sister in the spring.

After a horrible experience at a hotel near by, the Hampton got me checked in and into a clean space quickly. The room was clean, visually appealing and smelled fresh. It was a nice change from where I was prior.
