The place is very old and has many issues, widows covered with bird poop, door had huge gap, lamp shade was in shreads, the bath/shower was spray painted! dirty. Mattresses were old and noisy, just a real dive. The last AMVI I stayed at was bare bones but nice. I'll never give them an other chance. John R

This is not even a place of last resort. Just don't go! Dirty, moldy, musty, and so in need of total makeover. The walls are paper-thin, halls loud, felt like a keg party in the bed next to me. Hole in bathroom ceiling looked like a spycam set-up. We slept in our clothes with shoes on on top of sheets.... More

Overall the place was not that bad. it was reasonably clean and tidy. I understand that I did not book a night at the Hilton, so I expected of having a couple of stains here and there, and a bit of a tatted and torn feel to it. The front office is very clean and the family at the front... More

I wouldn't let my dog walk around in this dump. It is absolutely filthy. Mold on bathroom floor, shower curtains and tile. Someone's hair remained all over the bathroom. Dirty bathroom walls. Dirty carpet. There was no hot water; unless you count lukewarm water for a about two minutes. Invest in bleach and other cleaning products and hire cleaning staff.... More

If you are a fan of mold and soil, this is the place for you! The tile in the bath area hadn't been cleaned in a long time! Not a good experience. Stay away if at all possible! Rooms were blocked out for a group and they had us spread all over the complex. Killing spiders in the room kept... More

This is rated as a 2-star hotel, but is not even 1-star in my opinion, actually an old and cheap motel!! Mine is a non-smoking room but smells cigarette. My friends found hairs on the beds. Bathtubs are like 40 years old!! Furnitures are old and out-dated. Breakfast area very small with only 4 smail tables, compared to the number... More

This room was very dirty from the start. When rolling the blankets back i noticed there was hair in the bed that made me think the sheets where not changed from the last guest. The bathroom tub tiles was all mold. There was no hair drier in the room. When opening the dresser drawer had crumbs in it. I was... More

We were late in deciding to go to the Finger Lakes Wine Festival, so our hotel choices were limited. We booked the Americas Best Value Inn, and afterward thought we had made a mistake by reading the reviews. They must have new owners, because this was a clean, well taken care of hotel. Our room had a king size bed,... More

My wife, baby and I used the Inn as a base for shopping at the nearby outlet in Waterloo. Whilst the place is hardly 5 star, it was very adequate for our purposes. The room was big, clean and well-equipped. The staff were friendly. I would recommend the Inn as good-value budget accommodation.

I and my friend checked in the afternoon and then we left. We came back in the evening and found a Hispanic family was in our room. The adults were outside and some kids were on the bed watching TV. We were like, WTF, who are these?! what are they doing in our room?! Why they are in our room?!... More
