Econo Lodge Ames

Nice affordable place to stay.

They tried to scam me out of 250$ because they claimed we smoked in the room when nobody I was with smokes any kind of substance. The entire hotel smelled like smoked substances anyways but I will definitely not be returning……………………………………..

It was a budget hotel along a major highway. You get what you pay for. They were remodeling, some areas were better than others. It wasn't the worst place we've stayed at.

Not so good. Hotel has a very strong smell of some kind of incense pretty overwhelming. Appeared bedding was not clean. I slept on top of bed cover, did not want to complain because I did not want a confrontational argument. Also no housecleaning to change sheets after first day. Tub was dirty and had some kind of bug in bathroom. See pics

The property is a little older but you can see where they are trying to update. The property was clean and for the price it was very reasonable.

The alarm clock couldnt be set as all the buttons were stuck...the fan in the bathroom didnt work. Breakfast was a joke. They didnt even have creamer for coffee. Sections of the walls had holes around the edges and mold.
