American Inn needs COMPLETE OVERHAUL! Looks dirty, feels dirty, IS DIRTY! I felt sorry just being in the room. The walls, baseboards, even ceiling looked dirty and stained. Carpet is sticky, probably filthy! I did NOT want to shower, bathe, use toilet, or sink. Everything has rust stains and other marks on surfaces that look like it's dirty. I didn't want to even use water to wash up. Didn't want to touch faucets. Brought disinfectant wipes and sprays to clean things. I didn't want to get ON or IN the bed. I'm sure spread was not washed before putting on bed. Didn't trust sheets either. I wanted to cover everything in plastic and use my own pillows, blankets.... only use the room for the locked door and privacy to sleep. It is a horrible feeling to be in a room that, at initial glance, already looks dirty, even if it's clean. If they would spec dune money to re

I booked my room, and two hours later, was told they couldn’t give me a room because it was over booked. But they still took my money and as of today I have yet to get it back. So I’ve been charged for a stay I didn’t use. NOT HAPPY!!

HOTEL STAY GONE WRONG

Unfortunate for me that I paid on line cause when I got there, they told me that my room didn't pass inspection as if I worked there and was responsible for cleaning under the bed and underneath all appliances. Their mistake left me without a place to stay overnight. I felt humiliated, depressed, and distraught. I had done nothing wrong. Their accusation was completely unfounded,and the punishment should have went to staff not an innocent person who only wanted to enjoy his hotel stay. I suggest no one should stay there. And if you do, get a lawyer and take pictures of your room before and after.

They do not allow pets only service animals, but it says pet friendly on their website and instead of refunding me my money they never checked me out and kept $350 of my money. It’s very ghetto. It looks like drifter stay there and they probably sell drugs out of that hotel.
