Trish’s place was just as described and she is an excellent communicator. One person in our group is allergic to down feathers and Trish went above and beyond finding appropriate pillows and ensuring we had all we needed. She was thoughtful and responsive to other queries as well. Thanks Trish!

Private room in Ames

Traveler's Inn - South Room

Sam!Rating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

A great location, with easy access to downtown and a short bus ride from campus. Right next to Brookside park, which was lovely for a stroll and a morning run. Steven was great, super welcoming, and I couldn’t have had a better host or location. I would recommend earplugs for light sleepers as the trains are audible from the house.
