AmericInn by Wyndham Baxter Brainerd

the front desk personnel were very friendly and helpful. but the room was slightly dirt-pillow cases with makeup stains and a tub that needed to be scrubbed after remodel work. the remodel job was amateurish-2 of the 3 lamps didn't have light bulbs, the mirror still had it's shipping film on it, laminate floor in the bathroom over existing tile so the floor was a different level than the bedroom, new exhaust fan very noisy, towels very thin. walls also paperthin

Staff is friendly and attentive to needs. The breakfast and rooms are good and comfortable. Easy access to shops and restaurants. We are repeat customers.

The staff was welcoming, friendly, helpful. Anytime we're in Brainerd and need a room we'll stay at the Americ Inn!!

This hotel is in major need of a remodel, which they are doing. Construction noise went into the evening with hammering making it sound like some one was at the door. Would not recommend staying until it is done. Temperature in the room as awful to regulate, the fridge froze our drinks solid, the walls in the hallway were banged up and even had holes, the room itself was very small and dingy. There was paint runs in the bathroom and the tile looked filthy. Breakfast was substandard compared to other breakfasts in this class of hotel. Finally, the sign out front said rooms available for 105 a night. We paid $35 more and the excuse was they hadn’t updated the sign from three days prior. Ultimately, the sheets looked clean, but that is about the only positive thing I would say about this stay.

There was construction going on and the hammering and pounding was so loud it gave me a migraine the first afternoon and started at 7 am the next morning I’m glad they are remodeling because it’s dark and dingy but they should have just closed for a few weeks rather than try to operate that way

For my first visit, I was not impressed. I will give credit that the lobby and breakfast area were very clean and smelled good. After that it goes downhill. I really wanted to like this hotel because the price was great, the front desk person was very nice, and I love AmericInn hotels. After check-in, I made my way to my first room. Initial impressions were small but clean looking. I always check the bed well before unpacking and noticed a variety of hairs on the bed and when I pulled the duvet back, noticed some hairs on the sheets. Benefit of the doubt, it was probably from the cleaning staff. 2nd room... when right to the bed. No hairs but a variety of small yellow spots on the duvet with a larger one on the sheets. 3rd room... (This is when the nice, patient front desk agent promised we would find a clean room and printed off the vacant room list) Same issue as the second. 4th room... duvet looked good and sheets looked good so I said I would take it. Once I got settled and used the restroom, I saw that the bottom of the tub was dark (showered standing on a towel the next morning), the shower shelves were not wiped down from the last guest, and where the shower walls meet the tub it was all cracked and had mold/mildew. After working in bed for a bit I checked the pillows before laying down. I saw that 3 of the 5 pillows had yellow spots on them, but at least two were clean. Side notes... the internet was not good; breakfast was standard and ok; this was definitely not built as an AmericInn. I did see that the hotel will be undergoing a full top-to-bottom renovation, so I may give it a shot once completed but that's a big if. Overall, until the renovation is over it is worth the $50 to drive 20/25mins north to the AmericInn Pequot Lakes.

Here for a tournament - this was a great, less expensive option than the others. Great, helpful staff.

The shower had hair all over it. The bed sheets had yellow stains on them along with the towels.

Great hotel! The hotel was clean, the rooms were very nice, and the front desk staff was friendly. I would recommend staying in this hotel. It is in a central area with lots of restaurants and stores close by and is accessible to all that up north has to offer.
