Find Hotels with smoking rooms in Ames, IA

"First time staying at a Grand Stay property and we were impressed. The property appears to have been recently renovated and our single queen room/suite was very nice. Having a bedroom (with a door that closes) separate from a sitting area w/ sleeper sofa TV and kitchenette (w/ full size refrigerator, mini- stove, microwave, and dishwasher) is very nice. The bathroom was roomy, the tub/shower had very good water pressure, and the HVAC worked well. The only (minor) complaint would be that the bed comfort was merely average and a little firm. Other minor issues- the weekend breakfast ends at 9AM- a bit too soon for most and a bit soon compared to other hotels. The breakfast was standard and compares to other non-budget hotels (but no fruit was found- maybe we arrived to close to the 9am cut off); the ONLY ice machine we could locate was on first floor at one end meaning if you get a room on 3rd floor opposite end it's a bit of a trek to get some ice. The pool was nice if not a bit small, and the hot tub again nice but with a capacity of 6 also a bit small. There was a noticeable amount of sand in the hot tub, and the pool and hot tub smelled very strongly of chemical/chlorine. Given that our room rate was well under $100 I would definitely stay here again, but room rates vary widely based on demand and we must have found a slow weekend."

"The staff was very friendly and this hotel was clean and very nice. I got in a great workout in the gym and enjoyed the breakfast in the morning. There were lots of great options. I would definitely stay here again. "
