"Decent, but the bed was on a metal platform which was kind of uncomfortable."

"This is a great place to stay if you’re in Ames. We found the room to be large, furniture and bed was comfortable. It’s very quiet and other guests were very pleasant. They have a unique shower head and provide directions-which are helpful. Parking is close to the entrance. "

"Always such a beautiful place to stay!"

"I rarely write reviews for hotels, but for a first time stay, I was quite impressed with the hotel and beauty of both the outside and inside, the friendly staff and the convenience and location. The bed and pillows were so comfortable and the lobby and bar area are very modern and charming. Highly recommended! "

"Very very nice. Awesome Lady in front Desk Caucasian 7/26/25 checked out 11:30am, she was awesome! Sorry I didn’t get her name. Very professional and friendly, she deserves a raise!!! Thank you"

"Our family of 6 had a great long weekend here. Rooms were clean, beds were comfortable, and service was amazing. Kids enjoyed the pool and board games in the lobby. Breakfast was great both weekend and weekday."

"This place is amazing. I’ve never stayed in a place quite like this. I got one of the cottage themed rooms and it was amazing. It was extremely comfortable (except for the pillows but it’s rare to get good pillows in a hotel). It was so spacious it felt like the room kept going. The room I booked had a fireplace which helped my wife stay warm even though I was hot and she was cold. The shower had good room and pressure. The woman who checked me in was very friendly and informative. I don’t know if I’ll ever go back to Des Moines but if I do I’m staying here no questions ask. In fact I’m going to find out if Stoney Creek has other places. I loved this place. "

"Needed a quiet room for one night. The hotel is older and the hallways show some age. But our room was very nice and clean. The beds are comfortable and the room was quiet. The breakfast had a nice variety of choices. "

"Excellent! Room was spotless. Beds were very comfortable. Breakfast selection was wonderful. Very affordable."
