not so good

the room was very clean, beds were comfortable. Had to get our own towels,took our trash to the front desk, then they were out if clean towels. Covers did have stains which made it look dirty. The loud guess that stayed up way passed midnight drinking in the lobby, kids running throughout the hallway. we were on the second floor, right above the front desk /lobby. we were there for 2 nights stay, was there for a state volleyball tournaments, which our daughter played in. and it was tough to sleep with all that , then the 2nd night, more people drinking, if my family wasn't so tried from the all day tournaments, we would have left and drove the 2 +hours.

Room amenities are scarce. No ice maker or coffee machine. No glasses. When I pulled out the hide-a-bed there was a dirty plastic cup and no sheets on bed. No extra sheets or pillows in the closet for the bed

Huge mistake staying at Americ Inn.

Tv, and refrigerator were not working later to find they were not hooked up after remodel. Phone wasn't plugged in. There was a light switch that didn't turn anything on. No toiletries available. Very little provided for breakfast including rotten fruit.Desk help wasn't sure of breakfast hours nor were we asked how our stay was. Parking lot was a mess with construction supplies. Very unlikely i will ever stay in any Americ Inn again.

Please update the site, including the outside picture, there is no hot top at this location. The breakfast was of rubber eggs, no bread goods, nothing was refilled and the milk was bad and had chunks in it. I understand that you may be short staffed. I have stayed at similar hotels in the same situation and still went above expectations.
