When we drove up there was a crowd of people hanging out in the parking lot with car doors open and people milling about. It looked very unsafe. We went to a different hotel. We cancelled the reservation, which had been made only an hour earlier, and though Expedia tried to get us a refund, the hotel refused to give us a refund. Will never book at Americas Best again!

House keeping was very friendly, overall our stay was quiet and secure. Paul and Johntay are very friendly and fun to talk with, Vic and the dog Summer were very professional. Only complaint was no coffee and the room could have been cleaned better under bed and night stand.

Didn’t meet expectations

Room had a bad smell. Shower drain was clogged, receptacle in bathroom did not work, hair dryer did not work, furnishing very old, appeared that families with children are living in some of the rooms and they are loud late into the night.
