The hotel is not bad considering the cost. Really, only issue is that the hotel is in need of upgrades. Friendly staff.

Don't Book A Jacuzzi Tub Room, If Any
I wrote up quite a lengthy review in advance - but I'll try to keep it brief. I booked a jacuzzi tub room as a business stay for 2 nights as I worked a 14-hour day in Ames on day 2. When the room is so awful that I opt to just do the 4 hour drive home after that work day, rather than take advantage of the room the 2nd night - that's a problem. The knobs on the tub were busted, but didn't offer any controls anyway. The one control knob to run the jets was on the other side of the wall, out of reach of even standing in the tub. And the jets literally only lasted 3 minutes. It only functioned as a large tub. Huge cracks in the wall. Light bulbs out. Exposed sink pipes. Exceedingly thin and nearly worthless towels, plus hardly any in the room at all; they're hotel pool towels. Realized the night stand electric panel wasn't working, moved the night stand and the outlet cover is broken and half exposed. A new cover costs $0.15 and takes 90 seconds to replace. Then I noticed the cables were covered with thick clumped dust bunnies. Super gross. The biggest sketchy part though, is during check-in for my pre-paid room, the deposit charge came out to $159.10 - with no explanation. Should've only been $100 flat. Reached out to hotel support, no response yet. Worried I'll have to dispute the charge with my bank. I'm not easy to disatisfy with hotel rooms; I've seen them all. I don't typically leave reviews unless they're positive, but this was the worst I've been to in years.
Burnt out light bulb in bathroom.
Huge cracks in the wall, or plaster, or whatever it actually is.
Definitely an old jacuzzi tub that hasn't been well maintained at all.
The jacuzzi tub knobs were mostly busted, and didn't really function anyways.

Needs some work.
The staff was friendly, and the lobby was well kept. The room needed some work. The jetted tub did not function and the shower has almost no pressure whatsoever. There were 2 TV's, one mounted to the wall, and one placed in front of it on the dresser, neither worked. The one that did have power was stuck on AccuWeather. The room could have been a little cleaner. The bed sheets had long hair on them, definitely not mine, and the tub had hair buildup as well. The room overall wasn't terrible but it could use some updating.

Disappointed
The overall hotel needs updating Rooms were not a clean as they should. Dust around ac units, bathroom vent hanging dismounted from the ceiling. Rust in the corner of the tub.

Good Value
You don't get a lot of amenities with a sub-$100 room these days. I don't expect much more than a clean comfortable bed, choice of pillows, clean bathroom, hot coffee and an air-conditioned that will go down to 64 degrees. I got all that and the staff was very pleasant. This was my second or third stay.

Last night around 11:30pm I made a reservation, but after I completed it I noticed it changed the intended location. I was trying to make the reservation for Salt Lake City, but it was done for Ames in Iowa. We called the hotel and they told we need to fix this problem with expedia. Once I call expedia they told me: Alright. As I see, the hotel policy states, "The room type and rate selected are non-refundable. Should you change or cancel this reservation for any reason, your payment will not be refunded." Now They have stolen me vile, for the two sides washed their hands in the matter
