Travel the new Story County Trail!

On April 23, 2010, MonteBello B&B Inn had an Open House / Ribbon Cutting for the inauguration of the new Story County Trail, an initiative by some Ames area businesses that provide services for tourists in the area.

We put together this trail with our out-of-town visitors in mind. Our aim is not only to provide services that visitors need and request when they come to Ames, but also to offer suggestions for places of interest in the area. People visiting Ames will have helpful information for their travel needs and inspiring suggestions for places to visit in and around Ames. With the Story County Trail, travelers will have the resources to complement their plans and enjoy their stay.

The Yucatán Room Is Here!

After weeks of remodeling, we added a new room in March of this year in what was once the conference room here at MonteBello B&B Inn. It is the Yucatán Room. It features the vibrant colors of the tropics in it's décor. Since it is on the third floor, it receives a lot of light from its five windows, which makes the colors of the room stand out. The daylight makes it seem as if you were on the beach in the bright sunlight. If you are traveling our way, please stop by and take your well-deserved rest in this little slice of "sun, sand and ocean".

A note from Daphne and Jaime

MonteBello B&B Inn is now growing very rapidly, so it is time for us to fulfill our dream of expanding MonteBello's guest room and event space! In addition, after much time and planning, our efforts in creating the Latino Cultural Institute of the Midwest (LaCIM) have come to fruition with LaCIM being granted tax-exempt 501(c)(3) status. If you are interested in supporting either our dream of expanding MonteBello or helping us with LaCIM, please contact us at: 515-296-2181, info@montebellobandbinn.com. The LaCIM website is now up and running. The link to it is http://www.lacim.org.
