I’ve stayed here before and under most circumstances would probably do so again. I’ve stayed at worse places. But a bad experience is making me rethink it. I’m a musician and sometimes have late rehearsals in the area and will book a motel for a day or two if I’m too tired to drive home. Today, I was having an issue with a knee so decided to

I'm super disappointed in our stay. The room smelled horrible. The jacuzzi tub was not clean at all & didn't work, which was the whole reason why i booked this hotel for my daughter and her friend for her birthday in the first place. There were ladders in the pool area just lying around and glass doors falling off their hinges and windows open with no screens on them with little kids running around on the 2nd floor of the hotel. There was access to the pool area from the outside with no key entry but no access to the pool inside the hotel except with key entry. Made absolutely no sense. The room itself was decent aside from some the smell and spots on the floor, but will not ever stay again.

Suit only had one bed and one pull out couch but no sheets or bedding and the matress on pull out bed was holy and nasty. Paint peeling, even holes in walls. Terrible do not stay with kids.

Never again

Very horrible nasty and very dirty half plug didn’t work chairs stained bed stained and gross . Stayed there a year or so ago was not this bad was not perfect but you get what pay for . This time was the worst I ended up leaving 2 hours after checking in and having my oldest and her boyfriend come get us bc was not comfortable at all and wanted to get out of there asap. I ended up taking my kids to Holiday inn and paying double for what I paid at American inn but at least me and my kids felt safe . That place needs to be shut down and remodeled

AVOID this place!! Negative stars!

If you are a family, looking for a cheap, safe, clean room then AVOID THIS PLACE!! Pay the extra $20 and get a room at the holiday inn down the street. This American Inn hotel was absolutely terrible. From the cleanliness, or lack there of (stains on everything from lamp shades to bedsheets). All types of smells through out the halls, cigarette smoke, weed, cooking. Fake nails discarded on the couch. And just the overall unsafe feeling of the residents who live there. There were not regular bed pillows, we were given 2 throw pillows per queen bed. Plus our bed was broken. If you sat on the bed, it sunk to the floor. A wood board was broken underneath. The person at the front counter could barely hold a conversation he was so high. And the walls sure came to life at night. Lots of noises you would not want your children hearing!! Im honestly not sure how they are still allowed to be open. There has got to multiple health & safety violations there! This is the type of place that should have hourly rates. The price is cheap for a reason! Do not take your family here!! If I could give negative stars I would!!

People were yelling and screaming just about the entire night. But from 4am - 7am I could understand the conversation it was angry, mean, and a bit scary. Additionally, all looks ok at check-in, and honestly, the hotel staff was very friendly, but once you turn the corner to the rooms, it is a completely different story. The hallways all have a sign that say if you remove the smoke detector, it's immediate removal and $250 fine. Makes sense because it does smell on MJ. I think my room was clean enough but the bathroom really needs an update to feel more clean. But, i skipped ordering food because i didn’t want to leave the room again until daylight (came in at 8pm) due to the scary noises other guests were making. I'm female and was traveling alone and it really didn’t feel safe. I was just trying to save some money. IMO, it's not worth it and the Holiday Inn down the road was absolutely lovely.

WORSE HOTEL EVER DO NOT Recommend I HAVE PICS Lobby smelled like smoke and marijuana! Steps going upstairs looked like they had not been vacuumed in forever! Our room was nasty! NO CARPET, just cement floor with an old used bandaid on the floor. The chairs wear all torn and dirty. Smoke detector was literally hanging by wires from the ceiling. NO PHONE, NO BREAKFAST. Also the air/heat did not work. There was one lamp with no light bulbs in it! I called to the front desk and they sent two up and I questioned the housekeeper why no carpet when online pics show carpet, she said they redoing it. I also questioned her about having no lock on the door, her response was “ oh it’s safe, there are tons of cameras around here” I said really, she said yeah ok and walked away. The lamp was filled with dust and the cement floors had crumbs all over the floor! Window sill was nasty dirty, WORSE HOTEL EVER DO NOT RECOMMEND!
