Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Positives: I booked online and got the best price in town. When I arrived, the 2 men in the office were very cordial. That was the Full extent of the positive experience. The negatives: The property is scary. It looks like a crime scene waiting to happen. There was only 1 vehicle in the parking lot. I asked about it and was told that most people staying there don't have cars and that 18 rooms were occupied. What does that imply? I was immediately uneasy being there. I booked online and it was non refundable. They showed me the room which was minimally basic. As I walked through the room I felt "dirty" and the floor was a little sticky. Being that I paid online, and I could not get a refund, I went back to the office, and checked in. As I walked to my car, the uneasy feeling got even stronger. It was like I was at the Bates Motel. I immediately left to visit my dad at the local hospital. While there, I asked some local people if there was a decent hotel around and was referred to the Best Western Plus Executive Residence hotel which was about 3 minutes from the hospital and only 5 dollars more per night booking online. What a huge and pleasant difference.. it was incredibly nicer, safer, cleaner, and in a whole different class. They had a really nice continental breakfast and the room was great. Full disclosure, I decided to simply lose the non refundable money i spent for the "Bates" (Americas Best Value Inn) and did not go back there. Instead, I stayed at the Best Western Plus Executive Residence; which is so much nicer. When I woke the next morning, I called the scary and sub par Americas Best Value Inn to "check out" (even though I decided not to stay there) to make sure I wouldn't be charged for additional days. The woman clerk who answered was not pleasant. She made a small issue of the fact that I didn't leave the key card in the room, and I told her that I didn't go back there last night, didn't use the room at alln and that i would pay for the card. She said because I paid this party she couldn't charge me, and Hung up on me. AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID.

I flew for the AF for 35 years and have stayed in hundreds of hotels. This was the worst I've ever experienced. Smoke-free room smelled like the late-night poker party just left. Afraid to walk in room barefoot. Very small room, extremely small bathroom. Four-foot wide mirror beside the bed (floor to 3-ft high) was curious?? TV didn't work at all. No chairs, but really not much room for one anyway. Receptionist was very polite. Window AC worked well.

If you have any fears of COVID 19 this is not the place for you. This hotel was not sanitary at all nor did I feel safe while staying there. The main light in the room did not work and there was either mold or some kind of dark dirt on the wash towels. There was a cockroach scurrying on the wall to the right of me when I was brushing my teeth that I observed. The bathtub and walls and bathroom sink had blood and fecal stains on them. The room temperature was uncomfortably hot and there was no way to adjust the temperature, as the A/C unit did not work either. Overall, not a good experience and I would hope that management would have tended to these basic issues - especially in the middle of a Pandemic. There was a woman screaming at the top of her lungs at 2am for almost a solid hour. She sounded like she was under extreme duress. Rather than stay for the entire of the night I left early to stay at another hotel - DO NOT STAY HERE - will be reporting this place to the Health Department as other people who were staying in our same group had the same experience and also left early.

My husband and I always come every weekend and I husband and I are still in shock (btw, we stood somewhere else, after what I heard from another guest that I know from staying there. “I couldn’t help but notice the owner firing one of the best workers there. at least in my opinion”. I’ve stood at this hotel a few times and to be honest, The only reason why I have went back, is because of the great service I would get from the young man, you could just tell that this young man was proud to be employed for in this company. Also I just remembered, witnessing John talking highly about the owner and how he loves to be part of this team and helping it grow. That was a little upsetting to hear that this happen to such a good person. Ps: I posted a picture of the bathroom in the room I was given, a few weeks ago. I had asked Wallace, if he was able to help me and my family out and clean all that mold, that was all over the floor behind the toilet. His exact words were “ i’m not a maid if you want it clean you could clean it! If I was his boss he would’ve been fired . So pretty much what I’m trying to say, is that, as soon as the sun came up the next day I went downstairs and I had asked the gentleman, which his name was John, if he may clean this area that I requested overnight, and with no hesitation the issue I have was taken care of and John was very respectful about the situation I don’t understand how somebody gets fired for doing their job. They fired the best worker there for no apparent reason. he did his job and he did his job well. I hope the next time I stay there I see him.

My wife booked us a stay here without reading the reviews. I decided to follow up and as I read through the reviews it became clear almost immediately that this place is very filthy and in disrepair, unsafe due to bugs and mold ..pictures of the hair in shower showed me just how offensive the condition of the rooms are. We immediately cancelled at 9 AM There is a cancellation policy that allows you to cancel up until 4PM .. we were told by the manager no problem..then guess what 80 dollars they illegally extracted from our bank account! Numerous calls have been made and the manager says we must speak to the owner Chris Patel. They just keep saying he stepped out . Not available. If you try and push for more info you get hung up on. Were now suing them in small claims court. I don't recommend this place at all . They say its under new ownership maybe to try an excuse the bad reviews? I think that's rubbish, it's the same people. And they don't value hygiene. At all.

To start, our reservation was for a king size non smoking room. We get there and the room we got was a king, but it was smoking. It also had burn holes in the blankets, stains on the sheets, mold on the pillows, panels falling off the walls under the sink, and dont even start in the bathroom. They "upgraded" us to a non smoking (ha!) double bed. This one had mold everywhere. The ceiling, a pillow, the lampshade, the bathtub and showerhead (oh, dont forget the used bar of soap in the tub), the air conditioner and around the window and door. The cable box was dangling from the TV, there was an outlet with no cover on it, the air conditioner didnt work so there was no airflow since the window doesnt open. The door sorta locked and the chain lock was bent and held on by a half screwed in screw. Honestly, it was more secure to put the chair under the door handle, and you'll want to do that given the security of the place. We didnt even give their breakfast a thought given how dirty the room was. I wouldn't book this place if you're traveling with children. Well, I wouldn't book it at all, really.

This place is the rattiest most run down dump I have ever stayed at. The carpet was sticky, the bathroom had mold, the door lock chain was removed. It doesn't have a safe feel to it. The bed linens we're clean but very worn and there were cigarette holes in the blankets. The continental breakfast was not even worth a glance. A partial loaf of bread in front of a toaster. Cereal strewn over the counter. Eww. The lobby was not clean. The people milling around have issues. I will never stay here again. Oh and the " rooms have been renovated" excuse put forth by management is a lie. You want to renovate? Pull the carpets, remediate the mold, get new bedding.

My reservation (booked through Expedia) was somehow deleted. A gruff employee entered the lobby and said Can I help you, the lobby is closed." No spots in the lot to park so I parked against the wall and hoped. They found me a room with a broken lock. It had the smell of a non-smoking room that someone smoked in (pungent cleaning agents). I slept. Must've been the wine.

Please whatever you do, don't stay there. It is not worth it. My sister stayed there and said never again. I decided to stay there and see for myself. Oh my, even the lamps were detached from the wall. I would rather pay more for a descent place. The reviews says it all.

Horrible service at the front desk, decrepit conditions, and bed bugs to boot. If I hadn't already booked it, and it wasn't the only available place, I would have went elsewhere. There was a foul smell throughout the whole room, and the bed and sheets looked as if they hadn't been washed as well as having cigarette buns and stains all over them.
