Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Ames, IA

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Ames, IA

10/10 Excellent
"The first night of our stay the ac would not turn on. We arrived late and decided to wait until the next day to let the desk know. When we told them about the issue, they were amazing. They came up right away to take a look. Within 20 minutes they had an entire new unit installed and running for us. The female manager also came up to the room with the male maitenancr worker to make us feel comfortable as it was a group of young women staying in the room."
