Americas Best Value Inn Garden City

That big-screen TV was nice, but it wasn’t enough to make up for the price. The furniture was chipped and worn, the toilet seat was badly worn, and outlets were only on one side of the bed. There was no coffee or coffee maker in the room. The door took a lot of force to close and lock. I wouldn’t recommend this place or stay here again.

For more than $100 with taxes, I expected far better. This felt like a $60 room at best, and I wouldn’t recommend it or come back. The room was basically clean and the AC worked, but the toilet seat was stained and worn, with black mold in the shower cracks and around the shower. The furniture was chipped and banged up, stickers were stuck in the carpet, and there was no coffee maker, coffee, or tea.

The bed was comfortable and the room was great, but the bathroom light kept flashing. Showering under it felt like being at a concert.

The staff at the front desk were all super friendly, and the service was great. Our room was clean, the bed and pillows were fine, the AC worked well, and we didn’t hear noise from outside or nearby rooms. We were there on a weeknight, though, and I got the impression weekends might be different. The shower was small but worked fine. The place feels dated, with very basic room supplies, like just two little packets of “conditioning shampoo.” There seems to have been work going on outside, but the area was left messy and honestly didn’t seem safe. Breakfast was pretty basic and didn’t seem to get refreshed often. The Eggo waffles were left out to thaw to room temperature. There was toast or bagels, oatmeal, cold cereal, bananas and apples, orange juice, coffee, and hot cocoa, but the milk container was empty. If they cleaned up the outside and improved the breakfast, I’d stay again on a weeknight.
