Really in the middle of nowhere. Never will come back to Iowa but thank you for the pleasant experience and help. Couldn’t get a Lyft to save my life from there. If I do for any reason end up in AMES, IA I will definitely stay at mircotel. Thank you so much Trooper Joseph Long. This was a fun trip. See you soon!!

Kudos to the staff, room could have been better.

- I noticed the floor was a bit sticky, and when wearing socks the bottom of the socks was discolored. - Breakfast is not the "full fare", but I guess I should have researched that. They did have hard boiled eggs, but sometimes I would get one that was quite old. - The staff was great. I had a problem with my door, and it wound up to be a problem with the lock mechanism. The staff had to unlock the door each time I had to get into the room, and the staff was quick and very friendly to get it open. - But then again, the lock had a problem which required changing a battery. That got the lock working for 24 hours, but then the lock stopped working all together. The repair would take days - well past the time I would be leaving. - I was not expecting a high end hotel. It is an excellent value for the price, door lock problems not withstanding. I didn't think it was necessary to get mad at the staff - they were doing their very best to be sure I was happy, satisfied, and safe.
