The only this we did not care for was the sliding bathroom barn door. Would like a full closing door for privacy.

This is my regular place to stay in Ames. This time I was in the Executive Section. The door to the parking lot had a security device (that would require the use of the room key) however it was not operational. This was made known to the staff. Breakfast was short staffed and slow; on the second day the venting system wasn't operational thus reducing menu choices. On balance good place to stay.

We enjoyed our stay at the Gateway and we will definitely be back. It is conveniently located close to Iowa State’s campus which makes visiting our college student easy. The staff is extremely welcoming and helpful. Highly recommend!
