The location can’t be beat. But that wouldn’t mean much if it weren’t also clean, with good food and amenities, nice employees, and chill atmosphere. I’ve neglected to give such a great review before because it can be full on busy weekends and we’ve had to go to our 2nd fave place (Gateway), but our last ISU kid is about to graduate, so we can share the secret now. Plan ahead and return to your favorite rooms again and again. ##### Faye Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### chandler 11 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great hours, great location with great breakfast ##### chandler Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Davis 20 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent location and staff. ##### Davis Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marcia 28 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I always like to stay at Iowa House when I'm in Ames. The location is excellent, the breakfast always delicious, and the self-serve aspect of the house works really well. The common spaces are comfortable and nicely appointed, bringing back that ISU vibe with mid-century decor and oak treatments. ##### Marcia Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Terry 15 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Spacious and homelike with gracious staff, walkable to campus. ##### Terry Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dan 30 Jul 2025 #### A delightful stay in Ames Iowa The room was very well appointed and very comfortable and had everything we needed.

The Iowa House is a little worn in some places and needs new carpet in the stair well. The breakfast was tasty and filling, (a croissant sandwich with fruit and tater tots), but there didn't seem to be a choice. The room on the 3rd floor was quiet for an afternoon nap, but the house filled with noise in the middle of the night as people went up and down the stairs, returning from the night out. We plan to return again. ##### David Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Arlene 26 Aug 2025 Liked: Room comfort #### Home away from home. A wonderful location next to campus. The former fraternity house is full of interesting historical and artistic works. We felt at home. We were visiting the campus after graduating from ISU nearly 60 years ago. ##### Arlene Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brian 27 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The room worked great for us.

Other than that the room was very comfortable . Guests should know there isn’t an elevator so be prepared to climb the 32 stairs if on the third floor. Breakfast was great and the living room/ dining room areas were decorated for the season. Lovely. Would stay here again. ##### Lenore Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeffrey 29 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Quaint home converted the hotel.
