Top Nelson Park Hotel Reviews

Qube Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It was the most peaceful motel I’ve ever stayed at. No noise. Great nights sleep & clean. Don’t know anything about breakfast however. No mention of it & I had to run."

Stoney Creek Hotel Des Moines - Johnston

Best Western Premier Des Moines-Ankeny Hotel

Spark by Hilton Ames

8/10 Good

"The pool was pretty cold but everything else was great!!!"

Quality Inn & Suites Ames Conference Center Near ISU Campus

8/10 Good

"It’s a 3 star hotel. Don’t expect anything more than that. The room was clean, bathroom was clean, nothing updated. 2 of the lamps in my room didn’t work but I fixed them myself. I’m fine with that. Breakfast was not good. Should’ve just provided coffee and that’s it. Parking lot would be better if they just replaced the crappy asphalt with gravel. Parking lot lighting is not great. I think this was a very nice hotel a few years back but now it’s just a cheap hotel. But I’d stay there again for the night because it’s cheap."

Comfort Inn and Suites Ames near ISU Campus

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel for the stay, happy to stay again."
