What guests think

At Americas Best Value Inn Darien, many travelers praise the friendly staff and low prices, but numerous reviews describe an aging, run‑down property with recurring maintenance issues and significant cleanliness problems, including strong odors, mildew, stained linens, and occasional bugs.

Breakfast is widely criticized as minimal and low quality. Location is convenient to the interstate, with mixed perceptions of safety. Beds are sometimes described as comfortable despite dated decor. Best suited for quick, no-frills stopovers rather than longer stays.

Easy check-in, parking right outside our room. General condition was run-down. Parking lot full of weeds through cracked asphalt. Didn’t feel safe. No way to secure door beyond keyable entry.

The website advertised a pool, which is the main reason we booked this motel. There was no pool. There was mildew in the bathroom and the lobby had an odd odor. We slept and left early, didnt even stay for the lame continental breakfast.

Everything was run down, in disrepair including black mildewed shower curtain. Our shower didn't work and the tub didn't drain when we tried to use the shower. We did not use the shower. The toilet bowl had a black ring. The sink had no stop and there were tiny bugs on the sink. The bedding was clean, the only saving grace. We pre paid or would have left.

Lady at front desk was super sweet and helpful. But…… as soon as you get the key and walk to your room you have to avoid the people living in a trailer in the back. The moment you walk into the door of your room you instantly regret it. The smell of mold was so bad my entire family woke up with the worst sinus pain of our lives. You could taste the smell of the room for hours after we left. Checked the mattress for bed bugs. No bugs just tons of old blood stains. We all slept with clothes that we were wearing on and changed at a random restaurant when we left before the sun even came up. Slept on top of the blankets to keep extra layers. A family of 5 slept in one bed and chair that did not have the blood stains. Don’t use the toilet if you have bad knees bc it was so low my toddler thought it was a toilet at her school.

This was the most disgusting hotel room I've ever encountered, the floor was sticky, the bedding smell. I couldn't even sleep in it, she seemed to be malfunctioning. It was either too hot or too cold, it was shampoo soap, and "boywash" in the shower that was hopefully mislabeled. It was incredibly noisy, and there were bugs crawling around in the room. I could go on my own, but I think you get the picture.

The guy at the desk was nice enough but it stopped there. The room had dust everywhere and the shower head was nasty the bed sheets may or may not have been changed and the heat did not work well. The microwave was nice but the mini fridge did not work. All occupied rooms seemed to all be together and the occupants seemed to be up all night with the noise. There were also cigarette burns in the bedspread of the non smoking room. I will not return here.
