“My stay at Grandstay Hotel & Suites Ames revealed a surprisingly comfortable and clean environment, with a particularly noteworthy breakfast spread. The suite setup, including a separate living area and a well-equipped kitchen, made for a very practical visit, though the pool and hot tub were unfortunately out of service during my time there. It offers good value, especially given its proximity to local amenities and major routes.”
