Top Nevada Hotel Reviews

La Quinta by Wyndham Altoona Des Moines

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property! the staff was very friendly and excellent to deal with and would definitely stay again"

AmericInn by Wyndham Ames

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was friendly and quick to answer questions. It was in a safe area with quick access to Ames and Iowa State campus. The room and shared spaces were clean. The room had blackout curtains that did their job well. The air-conditioning was easy to adjust in the room and was not noisy. Our room had a microwave and fridge that were very clean and functional. Outdoors had tidy landscaping. There were generously spaced parking spaces with good lighting at night. An overall cheery and positive place to stay. Check in and check out were simple and prompt. No issues with our multi-day stay. I would stay there again without hesitation."
