Travelled with family and small children, Business traveller
Booked this hotel as it was near the venue for my eldest son's wedding. Raj (at Reception) booked us into our rooms and was very helpful in answering any queries (a theme that he continued throughout our stay). The room was air conditioned (oh joy of joys!) and had a huge bed. Clean, comfortable and spacious. Although the location is next to a busy road, I'll be honest, I didn't hear anything during the night.
Near the hotel are facilities - shop, Dunkin Donuts (50 yards down the road) and a Diner. 15 min Uber ride into Branford.
Thanks Raj
I will definitely return to the American Inn. 👏👏👏

For the price, not bad for a halfway stopping point to sleep for a few hours. Pretty clean, friendly front desk staff.
Exterior of Motel was in good repair and toilet in room was a recent update, but the rest of the room could use some TLC and there were stains on the bath mat. Lots of cigarette butts lying around on the sidewalks.

Easy parking and access to highways.
Manager would not honor cancellation for a third party booking. Insurance was not with Expedia but with AIG demanding proof of payment and personal information..
I will never book any trip or stay with Expedia again.
The room was clean and bright; the staff was very helpful and available; the extras (hair dryer, iron and ironing board) were just what we needed and everything worked very well. We were in town for a family wedding and staying here was a home away from home during our stay.

I will stay here again.
Very nice, quiet place with staff always available. Very well-run place. I will stay here again on my next trip.
I stayed at the American Inn twice this month. The room was clean and comfortable, travelling alone i felt safe. it is right down the street from the Sky Diner...good for breakfast (second time in did dinner there...good, reasonable, daily specials). There is also a supermarket in the same plaza. There was a mini fridge in the room- good for keeping drinks cold.
