The staff brought a whole new level to customer service. They were friendly, kind, and very helpful. When we had issues with the TV, they were there within 10 minutes to fix it. The pool was clean and the kids had a great time swimming. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone and everyone. Thank you very much to the staff for the excellent job they did.

We enjoyed our stay. The pool was great, breakfast was delicious, staff were super friendly. The only thing I did not give 5 stars for was maintenance. The reason is because there was a patched hole in the wall in our room. It was very sloppily done. There was another door in the hallway that had some damage that was slightly off putting. Otherwise, great place for the price.

Definitely an offer when you walk into the lobby. Place offers dogs, but staff are not dog friendly people. Stained sheets, crumbs and food around night stands, refrigerator leaks and shelves were dirty, and beds were not comfortable. You pay little and get minimal.

Check in was fine , staff were friendly . Our room was awful ! Very dirty ,dirt all over bathroom floor . Unclean bathtub. Husband cleaned it and had unclogged the drain because it wouldn't drain . Empty beer can found on nightstand. Only reason we didn't leave was because we had been traveling all day and were exhausted. Definitely wont do that again! Breakfast was ok .

Lots of grime, especially in public areas. Trash in hall and pool area left for multiple days. In the room the carpet, curtain, and walls all had stains and blobs of grime. The beds were inner spring mattresses on a thin metal frame, so were very loud. Bedding had stains and burns. Staff was friendly and breakfast was ok. Each area of the hotel had its own unique funky smell. I've stayed in worse, but really really needs a deep clean.

0 out of 10 reccomend. Thought it was an AmericInn, but obviously sold and rebranded as American Inn. Everything smelled musty and like moth balls. Mold/mildew around tub and sink. Stains on the bed linens. We drove 750 miles that day and were exhausted, so we were not prepared to find another hotel. My wife refused to put her clothes near the floor and we wore sandals the entire time. The bed was "okay' but we didn't sleep well. Only good thing was a functioning AC unit. Didn't even consider trying the free breakfast because we couldn't wait to leave and had zero faith in the cleanliness of food prep area.

We chose this property because it had 7 stars on Expedia. When we arrived, the front desk associate was kind. There is no elevator. The room smelled like cigarette smoke. The AC vent was broken. There was a hole in the wall from the doorknob. The bathroom ceiling was peeling over the bathtub. There were stains on the sheets. The chair in the room was completely covered in stains. There was no smoke alarm in the room. Overall, it was very uncomfortable.

We were traveling from California to Michigan and made an overnight stop in Council Bluffs. Since we were traveling with pets, we needed a pet-friendly hotel and chose the American Inn after reading many positive online reviews. The staff was very kind and friendly, which we appreciated. Unfortunately, the condition of our room was disappointing. The moment we walked in, there was a strong odor that smelled like mold. The wall AC unit appeared to have a newer front cover, but the inside was visibly dirty with dust, grime, and what looked like mold buildup. We chose to leave it off and open the windows instead. The beds appeared clean, thankfully, but the bathroom had splatter marks on the walls, heavy dust around the exhaust vent, and visible mold growth on one of the interior doors. After two long days of driving with two dogs, we were too exhausted to search for another hotel, otherwise we likely would have left. To be fair, this was a last-minute trip during what appeared to be graduation weekend, so finding pet-friendly accommodations was difficult. I don’t enjoy leaving negative reviews, but I do think travelers should know what to realistically expect. The staff was pleasant, but the cleanliness and maintenance of the room need significant attention.
