I have stayed here many times and have always been pleased. The rooms are clean, quiet, and comfortable, and the staff is excellent. The breakfast is good and the area is always clean. The only thing keeping me from giving a top score is the place is getting a little dated and slightly worn.

We chose this motel because it was dog friendly. You may wish to know, though, that there are just four rooms designated as such, and there is a one time $20 charge in addition to the room rate. The pet designated room was very clean and we found the mattress to be better than most motels. We appreciated the min-frig... More

For the price, this hotel is perfectly fine. My room was facing the train station so I recalled the one reviewer who complained about the trains "all night" but honestly, even with my window open a bit for fresh air, the sound of the trains was minimal. I actually enjoyed them - they were far, far in the background, not... More

When staying in Ottumwa the AmercInn is a great place to stay. A family place or the working person who needs a place to call home for awhile, the AmericInn fits the bill. Great staff and a very good continental breakfast. The pool & hot tub provide a nice place to relax after a long day.

For the price and service, this is the nicest hotel in the area. Close to both the Wapello County Historical Museum which house both the Amtrak and Burlington Trailways terminals, and the famous Canteen Lunch In the Alley. Also close to the Ottumwa Transit bus stop. Be aware though that if you choose that method of transportation, to be done... More

First, the positive: easy to locate, room rates are good, and the breakfast was very good. Now for the 'dealbreakers': First, the passing TRAINS will keep you up all night. One right after another. They sounded like they were in the room with us. Second, the mattress on the hideaway sofa, as well as the mattress on the rollaway bed,... More

We were in town for a funeral. We had a very nice stay, the pool was clean (if not a little heavy on the chlorine, the kids and I had eye sensitivity throughout the day). The breakfast options there are always really good, our beds were a little rough, but overall we had a nice stay. We usually stay in... More
