AmericInn by Wyndham Maquoketa

If you like pee stained mattresses and mattress protectors, hair in your bed, broken down dirty hot tubs, xxxxs pool towels, and a pretend game room...this is the hotel for you. Would've left but it was already too late for my kid. Wouldn't recommend booking here.

Staff was nice. Housekeeping staff were awesome. The room was fine. Most amenities were locked up though. Game room was locked. Exercise room was locked. Breakfast area was locked at 10am. Continental breakfast was okay. I think they were short on staff and locked things up to compensate. Understandable but still a bit off-putting.

Check in & check out were both easy and staff were very friendly. We checked in around 6:30pm and pool was closed, which wasn't a big deal to us as we weren't going to use it. Not sure if it was staff shortage or issue with pool - may be something to look into if you are planning on using it during your stay.

Hot tub in pool area had mold growing in it. The whirlpool tub took 35 minutes to fill and then when you turned it on it had scum and scale come out the jets. The screens on the windows were not correct and you could not shut them all the way. The breakfast area had very little food in there and we ended up going to a restaurant for breakfast. will not use this place or you for any more motels.

We stayed extra night and bed was hard, ceilings were stained and the carpet was bare in spots, made room look dingy. Check in person was fast and courteous. Outside of hotel made it seem modern.

Less then impressed, had to track someone down at check in because he was hiding out back, then he recommended 3 resteraunts that happened to be closed, then going up to room smelled like terrible burning candles. It made us all queezy. Later on we went to see the bar, pool and game room. Bar was closed, the game room was closed down, the hot tub was broken, the babies pool was freezing cold, enough my toddler could not go in. Had to chase the front desk guy down again because there was no stocked towels. The room was dark and dingy. Do not recommend this hotel. We should have been warned at checkin or before when they closed down half the amenities they have. Part of the reason we booked was because of the hot tub, game room and bar.

The staff was friendly at check-in and the hotel was overall clean.

We were disappointed the hot tub was out of order and the swimming pool were only half full of water. Loose wiring behind the towel rack in the pool area.

Been staying at this hotel every year since it first opened. Always adequate for my family-needs. Just find the price of the rooms to be hyper-inflated for my birth town of Maquoketa, Iowa! $170.00 a night including tax for one person, in Maquoketa?? Having stayed in hotels literally in most major cities in the US, and in Europe over 25 years, this price for this chain hotel was just silly. Don’t even have a full-time person at the front desk! He was nice and helpful when one could find him, but he had so many tasks going on. My yearly family reunion is held at the fairgrounds. The hotel is well-located for sure. The pool is surely a draw for families with children! My bathroom was very nice, as I need the grab bars. Thanks for that!! Please expand breakfast a little. Biscuits and gravy is not healthy!! How about scrambled eggs? Protein is good! Thank you for oatmeal packets, bananas, and yogurt. Coffe was excellent. My comments reflect discussion of AmericInn at my reunion with several people who are now going to the Econolodge, which is nicely updated and has a fabulous breakfast for guests.
