Few days ago I paid $210/night plus $50 valet parking in a “fancy” hotel in Indianapolis, what a waste of money. For $63 in American Motor Inn I got the same bed size and comfort and much better sleep. The location is safe, quiet and they have parking. The young man at the reception is kind and friendly. Great customer service. Rock Island is a very beautiful place and in few minutes drive you can visit Davenport, Iowa. We’re definitely recommend this motel and we’re planning on coming back soon. This is our new place to stay in Rock Island.

I live motels. I’m not a hotel type person. I get the same room when I come here. They are always polite and conversate enough to make you feel comfortable. Hotels don’t, they just type, give you a receipt to sign and card for room. Most the time they take 10-15 minutes to get to you. You can come here at 1-2 am and get someone in 5-10 minutes. Great staff. Could care less if outdated. Just need Tv, clean sheets 1 towel 1 rag. If anyone person needs more. They’re either spoiled, Rude, Incidersate

Felt like a criminal checking in. Had to request towels, the one we got looked like someone had previously polished black shoes with it, the other smelled terrible, mildew in corners of bathtub, took forever to get hot water in sink. Just skip this one!

Extremely weird experience! I arrived to learn the manager had cancelled my reservation, claiming I was lacking a number from my credit card entry performed online? Eventually, proving to him it was correct, he then said he did have a room but wanted me to use a different credit card. Fine. But there were many notes taped to the glass partition at the check-in counter, one claiming that the credit card machine was out of order and not working that day; but, lo and behold, it worked for me? But, the room had the filthiest shower curtain I've ever seen in my 40 years of working in the travel industry! Plus, only a sheet and a filthy bedspread and no blanket when it was below freezing outside? Thankfully, only one night and I survived and a noisy room heater blasted through the night hours.

It was convenient for where I wanted to be and the price was reasonable. It was an older motel with dated decor and simple bathroom. I could hear sound from neighboring room, including a baby crying @ 4:30 in the morning. At least I could use the fan to minimize the noise from next door. There was no one at the front desk and when I rang a buzzer, a woman came who apparently spoke no english. She had to get another person to sign me in.

Poor conditions maintenance is required
Oh my while the gentleman in the office was pleasant the room was in terrible need of repairs. Walls dirty and in of paint. Holes in the drywall. Shower was something we would not and did not use. Nightstand while sturdy was stained, chipped, cracked. While there was a lock on the inside, not safety latch or peer whole in door to see who may be knocking at the door without opening it . We actually moved the table and chairs in front of it to feel more secure. This would be a place I'd return to IF serious maintenance and updating work would be done. But for now we won't return on our next visit.
