The room was fairly dirty. There were multiple stains on the white comforter/duvet and I found hairs in the bed. The TV did not work. The phone was disconnected.
The staff was helpful. The employee at check in was very friendly. The second night, the front desk worker came up to fix our TV.
I was very disappointed in our stay.

Don't recommend staying here. Staff entered my room at 9:30 at night to \"check housekeeping\" said sorry I didn't know you were here. I didn't check out and was not scheduled to check out for 3 more days. I let housekeeping in one day to take trash and replace towels. After coming back from the days events. I found I was missing medication. I suspect they entered my room that late at night hoping to score more of my medication. Management did nothing but make excuses as to why that might enter my room so late at night. Shady business. I checked out immediately and found another hotel.

They didn't clean our room 3 days in a row. When asked, the front desk clerk said \"sorry, we are short staffed so we only clean rooms that were checking out.\" There is a note in the rooms stating they will clean rooms every other day to conserve natural resources. The fire alarm activated at 3AM due to a malfunction in the pool's mechanical room. The next night the fire alarm activated at 10PM & then again at 11PM, due to the same issue as the previous night...

When we first got there, we were worried that it wasn't going to be a good stay. Luckily, the hotel was better than the first impression. Walk in and it kind of had an old hotel smell but looked really nice. The lady at check in was nice and let us check in early. She did not give is any info regarding our stay, such as Wi-Fi info, pool hours or breakfast hours. The hallway was hot and the carpet looked like it hadn't been vacuumed in a while which made us worried about our room condition. Great news, our room was actually really nice and clean.

During our stay, our car got over 1500 dollars in damage in the hotel parking lot from a hit and run. Messed up our door pretty bad. We filed a police report and the manager/owner of Spark wouldn't help to find who did it by looking at the security camera and they did not care and would not refund us for the stay. Worst hotel experiences ever and normally I write awesome reviews and I was so excited to stay at this place, but had to cut trip short because of safety. I just wanted them to care but that is too much to ask. Very sad about this experience. 😢 if they are willing to help us by finding the person who hit our car or get the footage from the camera, I will write the best review, but I do not see this happening but I pray it does so we dont have to file a claim with our insurance company. Lesson learned.

not so good

the room was very clean, beds were comfortable. Had to get our own towels,took our trash to the front desk, then they were out if clean towels. Covers did have stains which made it look dirty. The loud guess that stayed up way passed midnight drinking in the lobby, kids running throughout the hallway. we were on the second floor, right above the front desk /lobby. we were there for 2 nights stay, was there for a state volleyball tournaments, which our daughter played in. and it was tough to sleep with all that , then the 2nd night, more people drinking, if my family wasn't so tried from the all day tournaments, we would have left and drove the 2 +hours.

Huge mistake staying at Americ Inn.

Tv, and refrigerator were not working later to find they were not hooked up after remodel. Phone wasn't plugged in. There was a light switch that didn't turn anything on. No toiletries available. Very little provided for breakfast including rotten fruit.Desk help wasn't sure of breakfast hours nor were we asked how our stay was. Parking lot was a mess with construction supplies. Very unlikely i will ever stay in any Americ Inn again.

Oh dear....... Think again about this one.

This motel is under rennovation/construction. I did see one comment mentioning this, but it was from early August and I thought it would be done. Nope! The parking area was full of dumpsters, stacks of building supplies, etc. as were the hallways inside. A complete mess. The workers were in the lobbby and I had to yell at the desk clerk (who was very helpful and friendly) in order to be heard. We were assigned a room which hadn't been cleaned yet. We were then assigned the room next door which was clean but the desk clerk had to remove some building materials. There were 2 refrigerators and one microwave in the room... none of which seemed to work. The new lamps were still wrapped in plastic and didn't have lightbulbs. The TV wasn't hooked up properly. We eventually figured it out. We had to go back to the front desk for cups and hand towels. I really don't think the staff had any idea what rooms were ready for guests, were still being worked on, etc. We booked this hotel because it had high ratings. I'm sure at one time it was just fine, and I'm hoping it will be again. but it's not now. Oh.. several people mentioned the lovely breakfast. No... it was awful. Dried up scrambled eggs.... only a few pieces of bread to make toast, etc. Plus -- the beds really WERE comfortable, as a few reviews mentioned. But really.... if you are looking for a hotel in Cedar Falls, Iowa... keep scrolling.
