Really enjoyed our stay at American Inn Chesapeake- Portsmouth Virginia. I recommend this hotel for anyone that is traveling and needs a place to stay. The hotel was quite at night so you can sleep. Stay there if you get a chance but bring your own coffee if you are a coffee drinker like my husband

Just what you'd expect for what youre paying. No 5 star establishment but if you go in looking for a bed and to save some money its worth it. Just dont go in hoping the 5 second rule dropping food applies here.. I just put a couple air freshners on the A/C vent and wasnt much bothered by anything else.
