Krista’s home is in the perfect location for anything ISU! It’s walkable to Hilton and Jack Trice. We stayed for a basketball weekend and her home worked out great!

This was the best AirBnb I've ever booked! Krista was a great host, had great communication and amenities, and overall my group was very impressed! If you're looking for a nice place in Ames to stay, don't skip over Sweet Caroline's!

The house was conveniently located for our family to meet at and gather for Thanksgiving. We had 4 toddlers and there was plenty of room for them to be entertained in the living and dining room. Krista was very helpful and dropped off folding chairs when we asked if she had any available. The bedrooms were comfortable and there were plenty of towels, pillows, etc. We would definitely stay here again.
