This was a complete fraud hotel. This hotel was not the one in the picture. It had mattresses debris, furniture tarps on the roof. It was dirty, and the vents in the room had so much dirt in them that it was blowing out through the vents. I need to be refunded for this terrible day.

Stayed for a week. Housekeeping removed our soap and cleaning supplies from the bathroom. Pillows are less and desirable and one on each bed was shredded foam in a pillowcase (too many washings?) Staff was not congenial. I always felt like we were a bother to them.

They were upgrading and remodeling the rooms. We got one of the rooms that hadn't been upgraded. It was definitely in need of it. The staff was nice, breakfast was ok (cooked items like eggs and sausage weren't great).

Hot room
So, we stayed during June which is A hot month, the air conditioning was barely working and we were so overheated . So we asked the front desk for help, They said sorry there's nothing we can do. So we had to go to target to buy 2 large box fans because it was so hot in there we couldn't sleep.

The property was under renovation, which I didn't know when I made the reservation on line. If I had known that, I wouldn't have chosen this property. Not a very pleasant sight to have a dumpster full of old mattresses and furniture just outside the door! Our room looked as if it was partially redone, but most of it was worn and shabby. It was very clean, though.

There was food left in the fridge in the room. Also there was no soap or facial tissues in the room. The room was quiet and the staff helpful getting things that were missing. The breakfast needed a fresh fruit.b

I loved the staff. Super nice & helpful. The hotel is under construction so there was limited parking due to supplies being in the parking lot. I didn’t like that there was a wedge put between the side door but realize it would be inconvenient for workers coming in & out. We were just in town for a trap meet so we spent more time away from the hotel & we’re just there to sleep & the hotel was perfect for this.

Don't Stay!
I travel quite a bit and def don't have super high standards. However, this was So bad! We were sent to a room that wasn't ready, no bedding, towels or anything. Once it was ready, there was still left over garbage and crumbs all over from the people before us. And still no towels, cups, or anything. The toilet wouldn't stop running, so my husband had to work on it. The air wasn't cold, so my husband cleaned the filters. There were holes in the wall. The toilet paper holder was laying on the counter, no where for it to be mounted. The beds were sagging and so uncomfortable. You would need at least 5 pillows to make 1 decent pillow. I could keep going but you get the pic. I understand they are going thru remodeling but it was def not a good experience. However, they did have plenty of plug ins; which is rare for a hotel. And the gentleman working the day we checked in was great, however the service the next day was very rude. First and last time staying at an AmericInn.
