Updated rooms , breakfast, great service with a smile.
Nothing that wasn't liked, only minor thing would be a resupply of breakfast items and coffee after they get too low, but no big deal.

location off 35, ease of checking in - the staff was super friendly and welcoming, and the breakfast
4.5 / 5.0
Breakfast was good, except for the sausage, it was not cooked well enough. But everything else was excellent. The location was perfect for the fair, which was why we were there.
Only thing, I wish there was an ice maker on each floor. Also wish they provided decaf coffee for the room coffee maker. And more sugar in the room as well.
3.0 / 5.0
My daughter enjoyed the fresh waffle that she cooked. Hotel staff was friendly upon arrival.
The pool was cloudy and the hot tub had noticeable dirt near the stairs. The breakfast was past it's prime when we got to it, the eggs and gravy looked like they had been sitting there awhile. The cereal was stale and the milk was expired

0.5 / 5.0
Friendly front desk staff
Lower level smelled of moisture and mildew. Asked to be moved to a different room and they all had a moisture smell to them. Not the cleanest rooms and stains on sheets. Pool area was decent but very outdated.
1.5 / 5.0
King size bed in the suite.
The pull out in the suite was missing pillows and blankets.
The night shift staff was able to find one blanket and NO PILLOWS! Give me a break, that's flat out B.S.
The swimming pool had NO towels.
No shampoo or body wash in our shower. Seriously?
T.V. was missing the remote.

The hotel was in proximity to the highway.
When we entered our room the window wasnt locked. I asked my husband to lock it but it wouldn't because the window was broken/off track. We called the front desk. The lady came but she couldn't fix it so she solicited my husband's help and then made an off joke stating she should hire him. Then the remote wouldn't work so she brought us a different one. The room had an iron but no board. When we asked for one she left it standing outside our room. The toilet was very unstable. It tilted to one side. Her excuse was they're remoldeling rooms and that our room was one of the rooms getting upgrades. She told us we had a new bed as if we were to be elated for the dysfunctional room we were placed in. The breakfast was not even close to being decent. It consisted of stale cereal, a jug of milk, picked over apples, juice, stale donuts and weak coffee. I walked over to the Casey's gas station to get something. I expected more of this place for what they charged and for it to be an Americ Inn. A few weeks prior we stayed ar the Econo Losge across the street and it was far better. Next time I know better.

Location was goid
Property is out dated and honestly a bit run down
1.5 / 5.0
The floor of the room was damp upon check in and the entire time we were there. We were told that if we wanted to use the pool, that would be an extra charge.
Our room could have been dry, and the pool could have been accessible
0.5 / 5.0
absolutely nothing
the rooms were damp and musty molding smelling. the furniture had stains on it and we were told it basically didn’t matter as they were getting new at some point. the pool was dirty as was the hot tub. the door frames in the pool area were all rusted out and flaking off with holes at the bottom. the doors didn’t lock and the door leading outside was wedged open for anyone to come in from the outside into the pool area. the front desk female by the name Gerry brings her person life into work by standing outside arguing with her child’s father who then left and property jumping the curb and almost hitting out car witnessed by my husband and two other guests. we ended up leaving and going to another hotel for the night we will not be going back there.
