“Manager Very Understanding”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 30, 2011 via mobile

My husband and I couldn't make it, so we had to cancel. Even though it was done a year ago, the Manager was understanding. Its not the greatest but very supportive in my situation, we both were ill. We will be back! Thank you!

“Don't waste your money!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed December 19, 2011

Don't waste your money...this place was a complete dump! The pool was as warm as the hot tub, the bathtub was gross, the staff was extremely rude and you can hardly call a few bagels and stale donut holes a continental breakfast...would NEVER stay here again!!!! But, the Fireside next door was phenomenal, just stay somewhere else!

“STAY CLEAR OF THIS DUMP”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed September 25, 2011

last night we stayed at the Fort Atkinson Americas Best Value, the manager offered to exchange our room w/2 queen beds for a room w/ hot tub & keep saying You need? We then asked how much more,since he need the room for someone on the phone, He finally revealed only $25.00 more per night
Both beds you sunk, so deep into the matress when you sat on the side the bed came up to your elbows(no kidding,you could not get out without help!) the drains backed up, and we pulled back the quilt the next night to find nothing was even changed all the sheets were jammed up/nothing flatted out even. found a wet washcloth hanging up on top of the shower rod also. when we checked out early the last morning we found a man and woman in a room behind the counter sleepin in bed/door open(owners?) Stay Clear!!!

Room Tip: .please check out rooms, at hotels-forget internet registering-always show photo's of the hotel...

“What a disappointment”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed July 24, 2011

We stayed at the America's Best Value Inn in Fort Atkinson because it was right next door to the Fireside Theatre, and the price was right. This was our first visit, and when we pulled up I noticed that the grass hadn't been mowed in quite a while. Not a big deal, but it was a valid first impression. After checking in, we found that the "no smoking" room had definitely been smoked in. They even had a "stick up" stashed in the end table. There was a broken pane of glass, of which the manager said he wasn't going to call a repair man until there were more windows for him to fix. The continental breakfast was terrible; coffee was undrinkable, and the exterior entrances were not locked at night (the electronic key readers were not turned on).

“Over priced- some nasty things there”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed July 21, 2011

Should have known this was not the place to stay when we pulled into the parking lot and there was only 1 other car there. I had prepaid for the room because I booked through Expedia, which I won't do again. The first room we were given wreaked like cigarettes, even though the entire place was "smoke free". So, we requested a new room. The next room smelled better but when I walked into the bathroom I noticed a couple small, black curly hairs around the sink--gross! Then, I saw that there was a previously dirtied wash rag hanging over the shower stall--sick! The bedding seemed OK, no visible yuckiness. The next morning when I went to the lobby for the continental breakfast I saw a hair in the plastic silverware and a hair was on my styrofoam coffee cup. i almost puked. The hallways also smelled horrible, like B.O.! And for all this we were charged almost $90!
