This hotel is located in the heart of Bethesda, making it an easy walk to over 100 restaurants, shops, and the Bethesda Metro Station.

Overall score2.0/ 5
They only give you clean towels and clean the rooms if you request it the day before! Not well kept. Often times, no one is available at the front desk.

Overall score3.0/ 5
I only stayed one night. Nice but very small room. The third party I made reservations through would not allow me to change the check out date so I lost $500. They refused to refund my money. Not the hotels fault. Lesson learned the hard way.

And hotel planner is a rip off. I don't know how they got my money and/or info. I called this shyster company with a complaint and no one returned my calls. I wouldn't let my dog stay at the American Inn. If you look at their brochure it's bait and switch. Very disappointed with Experian, hotel planner and America inn. And avoid Hotel Planner.
