- "Love this hotel. Was always our go to when visiting our son " - "Great place to stay! " - "We were here for a 2 night stay for an OM competition. This location is fairly new and is only about a 10 minute drive from the school and their main area where all of the restaurants are. I would stay here again if I am ever back in the area. I reserved an evolution room and didn't realize that is was a handicapped accessible room but it was spacious and I didn't mind. Friendly service from the front desk work and maintenance crew. The hotel was clean. My only issue was the fact that I could tell the floor in our room hadn't been vacuumed. All in all, it was a pleasant stay at a reasonable rate."

- "The actual apartment is awesome with lots of amenities, but check-in is confusing with the keycafe. Then to check out was even worse as the fab on my key didn't work...I tried to get assistance at the main building and they said they'd take care of it...which they didn't. Hours later, after check out I got a call threatening to charge me $175 because the key hadn't been returned! I still don't know if they charged me or not." - "The inside of the apartment was fabulous. The stairway and hall were dirty and smelly. I wish it had been communicated that it was on the 2nd floor and there was no elevator. I've had 2 hip replacements 5 years ago , so stairs were laborious. When I used the key cafe, up a lonely empty stairway, I felt strange and wondered about security in that anyone could have followed me and be able to do harm. The pool was in ground and not available year round,which should be mentioned."

Overall very nice." - "Will come again" - "Absolutely a wonderful time. A perfect, quiet place to enjoy nature and unplug. The place was clean and had absolutely everything we needed to enjoy a great time. We received great communication from our host and she even gave us a couple tips.

- "Clean home and convenient location. Beds for 10, but living space is a little small for a group this size, e.g. kitchen table only had four chairs. Minimal kitchen untensils/pots/pans, so if you plan on cooking you may want to bring a few things." - "A+" - "Beautifully decorated, comfortable, comfy beds, ALL appliances worked! Great location to University of Iowa and shopping. Would definitely stay again." - "Great location and great place to get together with family for a home game! Three private bedrooms and a basement with lots of room for people to sleep. Bathroom space is somewhat limited for a large group but overall a very clean, nice place to stay.

- "What an amazing gem! This fabulous home in Ames is the perfect place to stay for a couple people or a group. It was perfectly clean, and very well appointed. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms, one full bathroom, kitchen and living room, and downstairs, a large TV/family room, a third bedroom and a laundry room in the finished basement. The sheets, bedding and pillows (two types of pillows to choose from) were very comfortable. The bath towels were the fluffiest I've had, and there was soap, shampoo, conditioner etc. for us as well. Simple entry code and lock for check-in and easy to get in and out. The area was nice and quiet. It was so nice that we had two TV/gathering/play areas - great for kids downstairs and adults upstairs! I wish the weather was warmer as we could have enjoyed the great patio and backyard.... next time. The kitchen was well stocked - good coffee area, fridge with filtered water and ice. Washer & Dryer was downstairs if we needed to do a quick wash. Overall, we were really, really happy with our choice to stay at Cy's Landing in Ames. What a perfect place for parents weekends, homecoming and other sports and school weekends in Ames! So much better to be together in one house, with a kitchen. Communication with owners was great - they responded right away."

Plenty of rooms and bathrooms for everyone."

The Historic Goeppinger Building has been around since 1915. Built by the Goeppinger family to house the offices of their farming and saddlery businesses, they provided offices for doctors, lawyers, realtors, dentists and teachers on first and second floors over the years. The third floor was once a beautiful lodge with a dance floor, kitchen, bathrooms, a smoking room for the men and a cloakroom for the women. It was converted to six upscale apartments in 1935. The apartments were leased out as rentals to private tenants from 1935 to 2019. We bought the building in 2007 and continued to operate the building as it had been operated since 1935. In 2019, we decided to restore the apartments and signed with VRBO as hosts. It is our hope to someday become a boutique hotel.

The original marble staircase leads to the lobby area on 2nd floor. Several office suites are occupied on this floor, as well as, the home of the Resident Manager. Another flight of stairs completes the journey to the third floor where you will find your relaxing apartment-suite complete with charming mid-century decor. The suite has a sleeping area with a queen size bed, a relaxation area, a dressing room with a wardrobe, a full bathroom with shower and tub and a fully furnished kitchen. The kitchen has a microwave, coffee pot, toaster and of course a stove and refrigerator. Dishes, pots and pans and utensils are all provided so guests can prepare their own meals and eat "in". Fortunately, there is a grocery store just one block East of the building.

This old building is built like a fortress with 13" of concrete between the basement and the first floor, the first and second floors and the second and third floors. The brick walls are at least 18" thick. The second floor is somewhat of a showplace with lots or original wood, terrazzo floors and Florentine art glass windows in the doors. Don't be afraid to turn on some lights and go exploring while you are here and feel free to ask us if you can view whichever suites are unoccupied. We love showing off the restorations we have done over the years.

This is an old amazing building but it does not come without its quirks, due to its age. We think these quirks just add to the charm of the building. For instance, you may walk on squeaky old hardwood floors, the radiators may let you know when they are warming up your suite and, it may take some time for the hot water to climb up to third floor. The building is across the street from the UP railroad so you may be lulled to sleep by the sound of trains passing through town during the night. Most guest comment that they enjoy the sounds of the trains but we do have a "WHITE NOISE" machine for guest use if you don't find the sounds of trains pleasant.

We hope you enjoy your stay. If you need anything while you are here, all you have to do is send a message or give us a call. We are committed to being the best hosts that we can be.

- "✓Comfy bed ✓Secure building ✓Tentative and friendly hosts ✓Good Value vs Hotel ✓Climate comfortable (AC) ✓Parking limited/Be aware- no elevator to this 3rd floor studio/Very small bathroom space/No dishwasher/No microwave. Overall this studio apartment is comfy for a couple and for a short term stay. Very close to shopping and downtown activity." - "We came to do the rail explorers and this rental was close by. It was perfect for what we needed. Ames is close by and offered a bit more city life and the near-by state park offered hiking trails. The rental was clean, quiet, safe, had everything we needed."

Summary:
Have fun with the whole family at this stylish 3BR retreat in Ames! Modern vibes meet cozy comfort, making it perfect for game days, weekend getaways, or work trips.

Everything is as advertised. Would stay there again."

- "We came to visit my son for the weekend- the house was an older house that had some old features as my grandparents- like an indent in the wall where the phone used to sit and laundry whites in the wall. Everything was perfect and the house just oozed charm. One on my favorite places was the outside patio on top of the garage with string lights. Host was incredible and the house was immaculate. This is definitely a house you need to stay at- just a short walk to the park where we played pickleball all weekend long."

- "Property is as billed! Only slight thing - its across the street from a very active railroad. Sound is deadened but not completely eliminated. Renter went above and beyond to get us checked in! Definitely recommend!" - "Enjoyed our stay in this historic building. Our puppy enjoyed the two green space parks close to the apartment." - "Host, room, town all good. My only complaint is the hefty VRBO security deposit and there lackadaisical behavior on the return of it. It’s been 14 days since check out and it has not been returned. I have rented through other home rental platforms hundreds of times and not had to deal with this. This will be my one and only time using this platform."

By booking this property, you agree to all policies listed below:

Amenities Use:
All listed and shared amenities, including gyms and other building features, are available for guest use at your own risk. Access is not guaranteed and may be limited or unavailable due to building maintenance, scheduling, or other factors. The host is not liable for any injuries, accidents, or service interruptions that may occur during your stay.

Guest Requirements & Screening:
The guest who books the reservation must be at least 21 years of age and is considered the primary guest. The primary guest is responsible for the reservation, must be staying at the property during the reservation period unless prior written approval has been granted, and is fully accountable for the conduct of all individuals included in the reservation. Any violation of house rules by the primary guest or their invitees will be the responsibility of the primary guest and may result in fees, penalties, or early termination of the stay without refund.

This property offers self-check-in. For the safety, security, and protection of all parties, we require all reservations to complete an identity verification and background screening through a secure third-party service. The verification process includes submitting a valid government-issued photo ID and a live selfie to confirm identity. The name on the ID must match the name on the reservation. This must be completed and approved before check-in instructions will be released.

An email with instructions to complete the verification will be sent shortly after booking. If you do not see the email, please check your spam or junk folder. Failure to complete and/or pass the verification process—including meeting age and background requirements—will result in ineligibility to stay at the property. In such cases, the reservation must be canceled by the guest, and the standard cancellation policy will apply.

Security Deposit & Violations:
A $250 pre-check-in security deposit may be required to cover incidentals or damages. This deposit is fully refundable after check-out, provided no violations or issues occur. A minimum fee of $250 may be charged if any house rules are broken, including but not limited to unauthorized parties, smoking, unapproved pets, tampering with devices, or exceeding occupancy limits. Serious or repeat violations may result in immediate cancellation of your stay without refund.

House Rules:
Smoking is strictly prohibited inside the unit, in common areas, and on the property.

Lost keys, damaged lock devices, or lockouts may result in a replacement or service fee depending on the timing and circumstances.

Wi-Fi Usage:
Wi-Fi is provided as a courtesy. While we aim to provide reliable service, connectivity is not guaranteed and may be impacted by provider outages or high usage.

Sofa is sleepable, but only for smaller people. The kitchen was stocked with the proper cookware for cooking in the apartment.

- "Clean and quiet. Short drive to the campus and near Hy-Vee for groceries. Beds are firm but comfortable. " - "Very nice place. Beds were super firm though." - "We actually had a wonderful time at the unit, until I was charged $65 of the security deposit for "severely stained towels and wash clothes". I am fifty years mother - not a college student. The towels were not stained, and I have yet to be able to contact the owner through the property management company. What started as a lovely experience that I was going to rent again next month is now feeling like a scam."
