Totally Fine

6.0

We stayed at AmericInn twice during our recent travels, and let’s just say it’s the hotel equivalent of that reliable friend who shows up in sweatpants but always brings snacks. Nothing fancy, but reasonably priced and accommodating. Round One was a winner. Our upstairs room was clean, comfortable, and exactly what we needed after a long day of sailing. Fresh sheets, no weird smells, and a bed that didn’t stage a rebellion overnight. We were happy campers. Round Two started with a hiccup. This time the room greeted us with a distinct musty aroma (think “leaky basement after a rainy week”) and a bathroom door that required a full NFL linebacker slam to close properly. We mentioned it to the front desk and they helped us switch rooms. The new room was back to “perfectly fine” territory. Beyond the rooms, the hotel offers some useful perks for the price: an indoor pool, laundry machines, and a lobby area with tables and a few games. It’s not a resort, but it’s practical and gets the job done. As for “breakfast”… sigh. Both mornings delivered the same sad continental spread experience. The muffins looked like they were contemplating their life choices, the eggs had the texture of regret, and even the waffle batter was wrong. Next time we’re definitely smuggling in better snacks. All in all, the staff is consistently friendly and helpful, the price is reasonable for what you get, and the location worked well for our needs. Would we stay a third time? Probably — especially if we can request an upstairs room and hit the local diner for breakfast. It’s not luxury but beats a cramped V-berth. 10/10 for the front desk clerk, 2/10 for the breakfast. Pack patience (and maybe a banana).

It was a nice location.

− We were supposed to get a king bed but they gave us two queens.

A Nice Place to Stay

8.0

This hotel is by itself by the water, so it was quiet. We had a king suite corner room and it was huge. Bathroom counter was large, which I like. Room was clean and staff was nice, but didn't speak English very well. The smoke from the wildfires prevented us from being outside. The windows and sliding glass door needs cleans and screen repaired, but other than that the place was clean and had what we needed for 1 night. Bed was okay, mattress was thin and just on a rail like another viewer showed/stated. Breakfast was not very good - not many choices and very bland, but otherwise for the price it was a good.

Not a great choice

4.0

Sad to say the photos were very misleading. Rooms were dirty and dusty that you could write messages in the dust. Room windows had screens falling out, bent, or missing. The lobby floor was always sticky and food area lacked maintenance. The juices are served in Rubbermaid containers that I had to mix myself one morning. The staff would heat platers of eggs and sausage in the lobby microwave. Pool area was dim and looked like it hasn't been maintained. There is no clear path to the outdoor area at the back by the river. Lack of lighting in that area. If I absolutely had no other choice I would consider staying there again.
