The staff were wonderful. We got caught in the blizzard Sunday Dec 28. I 35 was closed at the clear lake exit and I booked us a room at Americas best value inn. There was a long line up of people hoping to get a room. The staff stayed calm and polite as one by one they got us all checked in. The next morning there was a lovely breakfast and hot coffee all ready for us. The lady that was doing everything (from what I could tell) was so friendly and hard working. I would stop at this hotel again.

All good, affordable, great location, comfortable beds, The only downside is that it was probably not no-smoking before and has not been renovated since - so for a non-smoker - the smell is there.

The rooms were not clean. Somebody had taken a crap in the room and left it before we even got in there. There were roaches in our room. It stunk most of the staff was rude. We asked to switch rooms because of the roaches and the lady at the front desk couldn’t have been any Router, but on a positive note the lady serving the breakfast in the morning was very nice.
