I made my reservations for this hotel more than a month in advance as most hotels were getting booked for Iowa State Graduation that weekend. Upon check-in I asked for a Senior Discount for my Mother's room (she is 80)--they said NO! I asked for a Military Discount for my room and it was not available, either. No free breakfast,... More

We stayed at the Courtyard two nights when we attended the Drake Relays, and enjoyed a fresh breakfast for $9.95 each. Also the motel is located near the several good resturants a couple of blocks from the hotel. The motel is clean, beds comfortable, and a lounge area where you will find several computers (if you didn't bring your own),... More

Overall the hotel is nice. On the newer side with rooms that are pretty large, Only downside is the gym. Very small and no antiseptic wipes for the machines. Kind of gross when you go in and you see some sweaty dude getting off the eliptical and there is nothing to wipe it down with. There is a bottle of... More

We stayed at the Courtyard Nov 11th and 12th. We were concerned when we saw many buses dropping off students. Fortunately they were FFA members and very well behaved. The room was comfortable, WI-FI worked well, all furnishings were newer and well kept. The only downside was that breakfast was not included. It cost $9.95 and was very good -... More

We stayed at this hotel because of a wedding we were attending in Ames Iowa. Every hotel in Ames was full because of the Iowa-Iowa State football game. It was a little bit of a drive, but not bad (around 25 minutes). I'm pickey about hotels, and this one was nice, comfortable and most of all very clean. One thing... More

Stayed one night with my family and was pleasantly surprised how new and pretty this hotel was! The rooms are large and have frig big enough for gallon of milk, key with a toddler. The pillows and bedding were really exceptional for this level hotel. We would stay again if ever in the area!

We stayed two nights for a family wedding. The hotel staff was positive, responsive, helpful, and accommodating whether early in the morning or late at night. The rooms were clean and modern; quite comfortable. I couldn't have been happier except to have been able to stay longer!

Our stay was excellant. We found the breakfast menu just what we wanted to order, I do realize that many guest don't like the fact that guests at Marriott Courtyards must pay for breakfast; however that is okay with us. We have stayed at many Courtyards, and we liked the menu best at this location. The motel is new, close... More
