The staff were nice. Breakfast never happened. Very good location.

This place needs a serious upgrade. The room has been painted over so many times that things are starting to seperate from the wall. the bathtub may be clean, but was so old and dingy that I went without a shower. The windows didn't seem to close properly and the back door is not secure. There's trash all over the back outside area. Disgusting!

Glad that the property was still available, as the other one had cancelled my reservation.

Motel was dirty. Mold behind the toilet. Hole in the wall. Door lock to the bathroom was terrible if you locked it you got locked I side and had a terrible time getting it unlocked. Dangerous for young children. Light bulbs out of lamps. We asked the front desk to replace. Outlet in bathroom foes not look up to code. And very loud shouting and slamming of doors coming from the next door room at 2 am. We had to call and ask gor someone to come remove them.

This building needs a complete rebuild! Rooms were old, fridge made horrible noise that kept us up all night. Stained carpet, room smelled horrible! Holes in wall I wouldnt recommend this Super 8 to anyone!

Saw a good amount of bugs in my room. Didn’t feel the best about that, but for the price it was a satisfactory experience. Thank you!
4.0
Room definitely not clean: floor in bathroom, drywall chunks on carpet. Wall in bathroom had gunk on it
Could hear all people walking through hallway, hear all toilets flushing, something was beeping in hallway all night.
By daylight, the property was a little sketch. Wont stay here again. Should have driven the 2.5 hours home.

The bathtub and sink faucets dripped all night.

Not handicap accessible for other floors, had bugs crawling around ceiling, walls and on the bed with dead bugs on the floor. Did not get room that I had booked due to not being handicapped accessible, not willing to accommodate, came in and said $10/pet and had bunnies in cages that were trying to stay warm. When saw pet friendly there was no mention of charging that I saw. They told me I cannot release bunnies in the room or get them out of cage), wouldn't believe us about the bugs and said needed pictures but never took any. Said window must be open to have them come in but made my daughter check as they didn't want to come in themselves. Window closed. Gave us a new room, briefly looked it over and left. Floors were dirty along with part of the tub. Ceiling had brown splatters along with a little of the wall. Cigarette burn on the cover. Light switch on wall controlled the power to the outlets and on the lamps. Had to leave lights on. Person wouldn't talk to me and would direct to my daughter as I was disabled and couldn't speak. Didn't matter if I wrote things down since they didn't understand sign language. Had walker and they made me feel discriminated. In the morning, had to return key cards to them prior to checking out and if not will get charged. In first room, fridge wouldn't close as it was frozen open and broke. Had I known I was going to have all these problems, I would have cancelled the reservation and went elsewhere.

the room was filthy, no screen on the window, no elevators and we were on the 3rd floor. You could enter the building without a key. Horrible place to stay.

Very basic motel. Way over-priced on the weekends.
1.0
Our non-smoking room smelled of smoke, there were substantial stains on bed skirt, and chair, the bathroom tub and sink finishes were completely wore off, of the 5 combined outlets only 2 of them worked. The bed mattress had visible indents and was extremely uncomfortable.
1.0
Followed reviews for this property. Not at all what expected for a horribly high price. Shower passable, but my 19 yr old grandson
Refused to use - went to Hampton for shower (other family members were there). AND he wouldn’t spend 2nd nite either - too warm, soft mattresses. He wouldn’t stay either. Back to the Hampton again!!! Just under $480 for 2 nites - would sure like a refund!!! PATHETIC tiny breakfast room - went out to eat instead!!! NEVER, NEVER AGAIN!!!!!
1.0
This hotel was really bad- multiple issues in our room in addition to just the poor condition of the hotel overall. I will admit going in with low expectations but this place managed to drop below those.

First room was dirty like someone just left. Wrist bands still laying on night stand and beds were dirty and hadn't been made. Moves to another room and the air conditioning didn't work. One star rating

Didnt like that there was no smoke detector present. 24/7access to the building was for anyone ,as the lock was missing.

barely room on handicapped accessible ramp to make corner - Walls were damaged from previous people trying to make the tight turn

When we arrived to the hotel, our reservation was not recorded in their system. But, they were accommodating and found us another room!
When we got settled into the room, we noticed the smoke detector was missing and the television not in operation.

Athir was service staff , nice but was ok with putting us in smoking room when he knew we didn’t ask for one. Cigarette holes in bed spreads, ripped screens couldn’t open window

There was cigarette burns in the bedding. Holes in the walls.

The Super 8 in Ames was OK, except that I saw a small spider in the bathroom (not moving while I looked at it, but later I saw that it had moved into a corner.)
Otherwise, the room was comfortable enough. The breakfast options were nice.
3.0
The bed wasn't very comfortable.
1.0
The guy who checked me in was very nice but the hallway and the room smells disgusting. The breakfast food was not good even the coffee tasted very bad. We had to eat breakfast sometime else. They should change the carpets in the room and the hallway. And change the curtains too very dirty. I’m not going to book in this motel anymore. It’s cheap to book but you got what you deserved.
2.0
I booked at least 2 weeks in advance and then got a call in the afternoon on our first day asking if we were still coming. I said yes, and gave an approx time we would be there.
So we got there that evening to check in and I had accidentally booked a handicapped room. The guy at the desk says they no longer have any handicapped rooms. I'm like that's fine because I didn't intend to book one (I looked at my reservation and I did accidentally select that). But what if I had not done that on accident? What if I had needed an accessible room? At no time during the previous call did the employee ask about the type of room I needed and I did confirm that we were not canceling.
So I told the man at the desk, that's fine it just needs to be a no-smoking room with a queen size bed. That's what I booked. He gives us our keys and we walk into a room with 2 twin size beds. So we go back and I ask again to get the room we booked, no-smoking with 1 queen size bed. We get new keys and walk into a room with 1 double bed.
I realize I could have gone back, but I didn't go on vacation to keep having to explain to a hotel employee that I'm not getting what I booked. So we decide a double will be fine.
The room was incredibly humid so we are either freezing or everything is damp and clammy. The bathroom door neither latches or locks. The bed was lumpy and uncomfortable. And paint was peeling off the walls. To the staff's credit the place was clean.
Will never stay here again.

When choosing a motel, I don't often go for the cheapest in the area, but this time I didn't expect to spend much time there, and decided to take a chance.
I showed up right at the 3:00 check-in time. My room wasn't ready yet, but the desk clerk quickly recognized that walking and stairs aren't the easiest thing for me. She called housekeeping to have them get a room ready on the lower level (fewer stairs) and near the entrance (less walking).
I asked whether I could leave some things in the room, and she asked me to put them in a room by the office.
She checked my ID and took my Credit Card. She handed me the car-info form, and indicated a small table where I could sit to fill it out. I did so, and went to get the cooler I didn't want left in the car. It was heavy and awkward, and as she saw me coming through the door, she rushed out to take it from me, promising to keep it safe until my return.
I left to visit friends. During dinner, I got a call letting me know I had neglected to retrieve my credit card, and that she would hold it for me until my return.
When I got back after 10:00, she recognized me, and handed me the CC and my room card. She had already taken my cooler to the room!
It may have been the cheapest lodging, but I've never had a warmer, more genuine, enthusiastic, and helpful welcome anywhere I've stayed.
The motel itself is dingy and dated (hence the low price), but clean and neat; obviously well managed.

Property was old. Vehicles were too close to the older windows which was noisy and we smelled the exhaust.
The sheets had cigarette burnt spots, the check in persons' English was very limited. The carpet made my white socks look black.
