The facility keeps coffee and snacks out for guests throughout the day, very nice if you happen to get in late or come down late for breakfast. The location of the home is exception, a nice walk to the downtown. Safe and clean neighborhood. The room is well furnished, clean and spacious bathroom.
hard to say what I didn't like. The furnishings and amenities are well done.

This is my second time staying at the Iowa House. I grew up in Ames, and come back often to see friends and family. I've decided I will not stay anywhere else, except here. So homey, exceptionally clean and the hot breakfast in the morning and 24/7 snacks are great! Love love love!! Thank you all! See you soon!

The kitchen area was great accommodation. The loft in the room was nice. The location was great for Iowa Sate campus. Easy to access. Friendly.
Carpet was a little mangy/dirty looking, but no big deal. The room fridge was in the bathroom, just a bit off setting and weird. The lock on the door was strange and i wasn't certain it locked.

Excellent breakfast, Great location, Comfortable beds, Cozy room for all four guests. We stayed here to attend a funeral and wanted to checkout this B&B for future stays, being our oldest grandson will be attending Iowa State this Fall. This will be our first choice for booking a room in the future years.

Great breakfast (French toast and either sausage or eggs), fruit, coffee, juice, and other options available (cereal, muffins, oatmeal, bars, etc). The bed was really comfortable and the location was quiet. Walkable to campus. Nice outside sitting area.
There isn't an elevator, which was ok for us but good to know.

Staff treats you like an individual, not just a number. The site feels very homey and like 'an experience'. The location is ideal for both ISU related visitors and non-alike. Breakfast is always a treat and the fully stocked snack counter is an added bonus.

The beds were very comfortable. Nice pillows and bedding. Slept very well! Breakfast was good.
I reserved a room with two beds and I would have preferred that they were together on the same level vs the one being up in the loft area. The only access was a spiral staircase.

The bed was a little soft and it might be nice to have more than one type of pillow option (a thicker one and a thinner one), but really, this is just my preference. I can easily overlook these, though, and would 100% stay there again.

Snack and beverage availability was great- 24hr access. The basement common room/game room was cozy with a nice selection of board games. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful, with good service.
Our room was tight - desk chair had to be moved to fully open the door. Not much space on sides of the bed...but it was okay.

Room very clean and bed extremely comfortable.
As solo female traveler in her 70s I struggled a bit with code and keyless entry. Very grateful they had a number posted on front door to call for help with that. Also, there is no elevator. So know that you have to drag your luggage upstairs to second or third floor.
