This property was very affordable and provided the perfect place to come back and rest/talk after an exciting weekend in Ames. The house itself is a bit drafty so I would recommend you bring some extra blankets if you get cold at night, but the space itself was clean, comfortable, and well managed. ##### Adam J.

It's large enough to provide personal space, but still cozy. Everything was clean and the location provided easy access to restaurants and activities. Kitchen was furnished with all the basics to make it easy to prepare meals at home. Anna was easy to communicate with and very accommodating. Would definitely stay again. ##### Karen F.
