We stayed for two nights while attending our daughter's senior year voice recital at Carleton College. The property was very clean and attractive, with firm beds and a quiet room with everything in working order. Breakfast included a wide range of the usual fare -- my only suggestion would be to add some whole-grain offerings. As another reviewer said, there... More

When planning a visit to see my godson at Carleton I looked online to see what was available hotel-wise. I found there are four places to stay: two relatively cheap places, AmericInn, and Archer House. After reading the reviews of the two other hotels (which were uniformly bad) I decided not to take my chances and, since I didn't feel... More

We stayed at the AmericInn in Northfield for a few days while visiting Carleton. The manager and staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The room was spotless and beds very comfortable. Loved the outdoors theme of the lobby! Overall experience was great and would definitely stay there again. I had never stayed at an AmericInn before and because our experience... More

I stayed one night here last week during an event at Carleton college. It is right in Northfield and easy to find on Highway 3. Of the local options available, this is definitely one of the best. It was clean and relatively new. It is not fancy, the beds and pillows are not deep and luxurious, but it is clean,... More

Most recently stayed here in October, 2011, and realized that after staying here at least 10 times in the past few years, I should write a review! This visit was an emergency, last-minute arrangement, and the room reservations got a bit confused due to the change in plans. We were told by a night clerk that we would have to... More

I travel by car a lot and have come to look for AmericInn wherever I go. I've tried nearly every motel chain, and always come back to AmericInn. It's partly the good bedding, partly the quiet rooms, partly the generous hot breakfast, partly the pleasant staff, but mostly the reliability in the chain. With few exceptions, a traveler can be...

If you are looking for a good very basic accommodation this is a fit. Rooms are clean and well appointed for the price. Everything was in working order, beds are comfortable, bathroom clean and roomy. Rooms were also quiet. The only issue we had was the heating system cycles on and off which wakes everyone up throughout the night. Front... More

My wife and I did a last minute booking, attending a funeral. Got the last room available when we called the hotel. When we checked in and the desk clerk said "room 204", I asked where the elevators were............reply, "no elevators, just stairs". My wife has two replaced knees and a replaced hip, so stairs are just a bit of... More

Fantastic! I think this is the only hotel I've ever stayed in where I couldn't hear the TV or shower from next door. What a relief! Very restful and relaxing. The furnishings were fine, the comforters were cozy, the room and public areas were clean. Service is friendly. My only quibbles: the in-room coffee isn't very good, and the pool... More
