The Spotlight on American Motor Inn - Rock Island

Affordable Comfort Close to the Rock Island Scene


American Motor Inn - Rock Island is a no-frills, budget-friendly motel located just an 8-minute drive from downtown Rock Island. With easy access to local concert venues and attractions like Sunset Marina and Jumer’s Casino, it offers a convenient base for music lovers. Each room includes a flat-screen cable TV, microwave, mini-fridge, and free Wi-Fi, providing all the essentials for a restful stay.

Why Concert-goers love it


This motel’s biggest advantage is its proximity to downtown Rock Island — you’ll be just a short drive or ride-share away from local music venues and entertainment spots. With 24-hour front desk service and free parking, it’s easy to come and go on your own schedule. Rooms are air-conditioned for post-show comfort, and since it’s slightly outside the city center, it tends to be quieter at night — ideal for winding down after a high-energy concert.

Who this Hotel is great for


  • Groups of friends on a road trip seeking affordable digs
  • Solo travelers catching a long-awaited show
  • Couples looking for a low-key weekend base
  • Fans who prefer a quiet spot to recharge after the encore
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want to save on stays

Food and Drink Options


While there’s no on-site restaurant, each room includes a microwave and fridge for late-night snacks or leftovers. A snack vending machine is available in the lobby, and there are several casual dining options a short drive away. Morning hunger? Head out to one of the nearby diners — many open late or early to suit your schedule.

Nightlife Options


The motel itself is quiet, but you’re a short drive from Rock Island’s downtown bars, lounges, and live music spots. Whether you're grabbing a nightcap or catching a second set, there’s no shortage of post-show fun nearby.

What People Say


Guests often highlight the great value, clean rooms, and the friendly staff. Many mention it’s a solid choice for a short stay, especially if you're spending most of your time out and about. The parking and Wi-Fi are reliable perks that add to the convenience.

Areas for Improvement


This motel is definitely more about function than flair. Some guests note that the decor is dated and the amenities are basic — but for the price, it’s hard to beat. Don’t expect luxury, but do expect a clean and practical stay.

The Bottom Line


If you’re in town for the music and just need a simple, quiet, and affordable place to rest, American Motor Inn - Rock Island hits the right notes.

Never Again

Liked: The only thing we liked is that you can smoke in the room.
Disliked: Pretty much everything else. The place is run down, they are very short staffed. They have people that live there that are loud all hours of the day and night, our hot water didn't work so we couldn't use the hot tub. We reported the hot water was not working and they claimed that it was just because a lot of people using it and that it should be getting hot again soon, yet the place wasn't even half occupied, and the water never got hot for more than a minute or two.We were supposed to stay a second night but we were so miserable we decided to check out the next morning. I explained to the manager in the morning that we were not staying another night because the hot water was not working and the way he acted was like he didn't believe me. I then asked since we were not able to use the hot tub could we at least get a discount and he stated he could not do that. We will not be returning. Very poor value and no one cares if you are comfortable.

Liked: Nothing
Disliked: I will do nightmares about this place, the sheets of the bed were disgusting, yellow with cigarette holes and a lot of stains. The bath was full of dead spiders and extremely dirty. The carpet everywhere was dirty and it smelled like cigarette, it was awful. People were yelling in the parking lot at 1-3 am. It was awful!
