Wow! I can't believe that I was the last person to review this place.

Again, I stayed here for some NIH associated activities and again was granted my own room! It was great to have cable TV, two beds, and my own bathroom too.  The wifi in the hotel isn't too bad either.

They also renovated the place, although the main lobby was mostly the same.

Breakfast had a fair range of options and was enjoyable.  

Again a fun place to stay near all the hotspots in Bethesda

Okay....I'm just going to say that I adore American Inn.  While looking for a place to stay, I camped out at American Inn.  Great spot!  Cute and boutiquish...not high end by any means.  No view, no room service, and parking is limited, but FREE!  All my basic needs for a hotel were met and exceeded...but I'm pretty low maintenance.  I hate paying a lot for a room where I only spend a fraction of my time.  For the commuter, I think it's ideal.  There are laundry facilities where you can actually do your own laundry, comfortable, clean, quiet and adorable.  Only five blocks from metro if you don't mind the walk.  If so, they have a complimentary shuttle or there are bus stops along Wisconsin.  Great staff too!

When my grandparents came to town for my graduation they stayed at the American Inn of Bethesda. The prices are good and they have an AARP discount. Given the AARP discount, you can imagine who this hotel caters to. This is not a stylish and hip boutique hotel. It is very utilitarian - small, basic rooms, no frills lobby, free continental breakfast. However, they do have free wifi, which you won't find at a Sheraton or Hyatt. The American Inn of Bethesda is in a location with lots of restaurants and a shuttle bus that will take you to the metro. The staff is very accommodating. For example, they loaned my grandparents an umbrella for the duration of their stay.

If you are looking for a trendy, luxurious hotel, this is not your place. However, if you just need a clean place to stay where you'll get free breakfast and free wifi, consider the American Inn of Bethesda.

They have cheepish rooms but they are clean and the beds are comfortable.  It's within walking distance of the Metro and several restaurants.  They do have on-site parking, but they don't tell you that it's $25 a day.  Not bad, but it's not something they should surprise you with when you're checking out.  The front desk staff was very nice, and helpful.  The girl at the front desk(I forgot her name.) helped us find a couple nice places to eat and gave us directions.  It's also close to the Naval hospital, which was the reason for our trip. It'd be a pretty good walk if you decided to do that, but it's only one stop away on the Metro if you don't mind a little backtracking.
