Bedding was clean and comfortable but that is it. Very warm day and when arrived, window was open instead of a/c on. The warm room brought out the best of a wet dog smell in the room probably from the carpet that was so old that it had holes in it and frayed at the bath transition. Didn't dare to go shoeless. The entire bath was fricken gross w/old tile,c-top/sink and shower surround. No drainstops in sink or tub. Hot & Cold water at the fawcets were opposite directions. Don't miss the laminated list on the bathroom wall that lists what it costs for each item in the room should it go missing.....towels,mirriors,phone,art work in the room (no one would want), tv, curtains,sheets,pillows cases etc. They missed the hairdryer on the list so I suppose that would be ok to take but not sure it worked anyway. Sketchy area and I learned that Americas Best Value hotel is not one to stay at and they should consider a name change at minimum. Good luck to you if you dare stay there.

Not worth the stay
The first room was a dump. The room smelled like dog! The carpet was dirty and the room was very unwelcoming. Then, I moved next door, to a room that smelled less of a dog, but the carpet was a little better. There was an oven stole but no pots, nor pans, nor dishes.

Awkward Hotel Stay in rundown building
I stay at a lot of different hotels, and I very rarely write reviews. However, This was the most awkward hotel stay I have EVER had. I booked for two days, but checked out after one. It started with them charging my credit card before I even checked in, before arriving. I got a call early in the day on the day of check in to see when exactly I would be there. Then a friend came to visit for a short time, and within minutes of arrival I got a call from the front desk to get an ID. I have never stayed in a place that keeps that close of tabs on the guests. It was unsettling. Yes there is a sign stating that ID is required, but I assumed it was for guests that would be staying the night. Not for someone coming for a short visit. The visit was not even late at night, it was early evening. The condition of the property was not much better. Everything was dingy. The towels were not white and had holes. The bedding was not white. There was what appeared to be blood stains on the carpet. It was very run down. Also very oddly there is a price list posted on the wall on coats of damages or missing items. I didn’t look in the fridge or microwave, so can’t talk as to their condition. The staff seemed friendly enough, but again intrusive. All in all, would not recommend.

There are better places to stay than here
Room didn't even have a bar of soap to wash your hands with. Friend came to see me. Was there 10 mins and I received a call from front desk that friend has to come and show their ID. I was like, what?I travel a lot, and never had to have someone that wasn't staying show ID. I'm a VP in Banking, so I don't look like a shady person. Decided to leave after 30 mins and went down the road to Holiday Inn and had a better night. Would not recommend anyone to stay, especially, as I mentioned, there wasn't even the usual soap and shampoo in bathroom. Nothing.
