“OK for a night or two”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 November 2011

The biggest complaint with the hotel is that the plastic key cards used to get into your room seldom work at all. We had 2 rooms with 2 keys each and we were at the front desk constantly getting new ones, recoding the existing ones, etc. A couple of times, the front desk asked what date we were checking out, like the keys had already expired. (We were only there for 2 nights!)

The queen bed I slept in sagged noticeably in the middle, but I got an 'OK' night's sleep. Complimentary breakfast was better than average with make-your-own egg, sausage, and cheese sandwiches one morning and biscuits and gravy the next. Included usual fare of cereals, pastry, fruit, juice, coffee, and make-your-own waffles.

The best thing about ANY AmericInn is their ability to stop noise and we found that to be true as usual. We had an adjoining room with my son and his 2 small daughters, and we never heard them after we closed the door for the evening, and never heard any other guests.

“Yearly visit...Always Excellent”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 May 2011
3
people found this review helpful

We stay at this hotel in Albert Lea every year for a family reunion in April that we hold in the hotel's Hospitality room. We have always had great service and a great time here.

Checked in about noon and got our room right away, we book the same room each year (224) a two room whirlpool suite. Things change in the room each year and this year it had a King size bed (like always) and two pullout sofa sleepers. The room is nice but gets worn a little more each year and one of these years the property could probably use a renovation.

The staff were excellent and accommodated all of ours, and our family's requests. The staff here is always wonderful and makes our stay and reunion that much more enjoyable.

Like always, we will be back next year!

Room Tip: Two room whirlpool suite is on the end and on 2nd

“Hotel rooms reeks of cigarette smoke!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 July 2010

Do not recommend this hotel to anyone! Our "non-smoking" room was so smokey that considered checking out at 4:00AM, but since we were in town for a family funeral had no choice but to stay. Window could not be opened to let in fresh air; carpet was dirty and we questioned wheter the bed sheets had actually been changed . We stay in hotels over 50 nights per year...this is the worst we have ever had. Prices are not cheap so one would expect much better. Non smoking rooms are adjacent to smoking rooms...talk about poor planning.

Also hotel has no elevator so you will need to carry your own luggage up and down steep steps. This is not the hotel for mature travelers or anyone with allergies.
