    beautifully decorated room
    great value

    It was just an optimal selection for a weekend excursion in Ames with outstanding value. Our Deluxe Double Room was beautifully decorated, which made our short stay more enjoyable. Make sure to book through third-party sites for better rates next time.

    labeling issue

    The décor blends lovely antiques with modern comforts, creating a charming atmosphere. The common areas offer spaciousness, perfect for relaxing after a day out.

    Finding room 101 was a bit tricky due to the lack of proper labeling, which added stress after a long drive. The breakfast offerings could be improved, as I noted a lot of processed food and waste from packaging, which felt a little dated for my taste.

    old-world ambience
    comfortable rooms
    excellent breakfast
    unlabeled room
    difficult to find

    The Iowa House Historic Inn offers a charming old-world ambience combined with modern amenities. Located conveniently near ISU campustown, everything is within walking distance. The rooms are exceptionally clean and comfortable, with large windows showcasing lovely neighborhood views. The hot breakfast, featuring made-to-order eggs, is arguably the best in Ames, and the staff's friendly service enhances the experience.

    The room number was not labeled, which made it a bit difficult to find initially.

    charming decor
    delicious breakfast
    cozy lounge
    higher room rate

    I had an amazing time, especially enjoying the charming decor and the delicious hot breakfast with made-to-order eggs. The cozy lounge area was perfect for unwinding after a long day, and the fitness center was a nice bonus for staying active. The only hiccup was the room rate for extending my stay, which was a bit higher than expected, but overall, it was a fantastic experience! 😊
