Americas Best Value Inn Mcallen - 麦卡伦

The motel is within 4 miles of the McAllen airport.

To reach the motel, exit the airport via either Bicentennial or 10th Street, turn right onto the Hwy.

The room had exceptional internal lighting (entryway, desk, and over the bed).

The only negative aspect concerned the towels: Two bath towels (only 1 fluffy), one hand towel, and no washcloths.

The water pressure in the sink, toilet, and shower was adequate, and superior to what one usually gets on a 3rd floor.

Great hotel, the duration of service were excellent and the rooms were nice.

All rooms are nonsmoking, but there's an ashtray outside the lobby doors.

American offers a continental breakfast, the pool were very clean.

The motel is between a drive-through bank and a Joe's Crab Shack (which you should AVOID -- there is plenty of other fast and sit-down food across the highway).

The front desk had my web reservation (2-night minimum for $45/night).

A great staff and the owner is too CHEAP.

Great 3-night stay, the price was very reasonable and the front-desk staff were invariably helpful.

I later asked the front desk for more and was told that there were no more.

There is plenty of parking in front and on either side of this 3-story motel (which has interior corridors).

There's a cola machine on every floor in the middle of the hall, beside the elevator.

Housekeeping was excellent, unobtrusive, and not overdone (no one moved my stuff in order to clean).

My immediate impression was that the room was spotless, and that it was neither overly spacious nor too cramped.

Every item smelled clean, certainly, but there comes a time to retire bath linens that are past their useful life.

Just off the lobby is a breakfast room (open 6a-10a), featuring cereals, fresh rolls & pastries, coffees & juices, and a hot-waffle machine.
