The room we reserved was spacious and had a quiet heating/cooling system. The desk was large. Enjoyed the window seat. The room was clean and comfortable. We would stay there again. The complimentary breakfast was adequate, but only hot item was a waffle. The bathroom needed updated tub/shower and toilet. But still adequate.

Upon first entering our room, it smelled very musty, moldy. We had to shut off the air conditioner because I felt like it was just pumping this moldy air into our room. Our bathroom was dirty. Cracked tiles and crud on the floor. The sink was missing the stopper so you just looked it down into a dirty drain as you brushed your teeth. The ceiling and walls were so thin I thought the people above were going to come through our ceiling. In the evenings, the people who run the hotel would sit in the lobby, barefoot and one night one of the workers was picking at his toes in the Lobby. I understand I am looking for an affordable hotel, but I wouldn’t stay here again.

Really in the middle of nowhere. Never will come back to Iowa but thank you for the pleasant experience and help. Couldn’t get a Lyft to save my life from there. If I do for any reason end up in AMES, IA I will definitely stay at mircotel. Thank you so much Trooper Joseph Long. This was a fun trip. See you soon!!
