America’s Best Value Inn Accident Injury Lawyer
Whether you are traveling alone on you’re on vacation with your family, motels and budget hotels are a great way to make every dollar stretch. America’s Best Value Inn fits the bill for many travelers, as they have many locations throughout the U.S. at various price points. Because they are independently owned and operated, each location has its own look and feel, but the idea of basic accommodations at economy prices remains the same.
Even if a hotel specializes in simple, basic services, that doesn’t change the standard for cleanliness and safety. These are part of a hotel owner’s duty to their guests, whether they run a luxury resort or a one story motel. Unfortunately, business owners may fall behind on maintenance and security needs due to poor management or lack of involvement with how the hotel is being managed. Or, they simply place profits over people’s safety and refuse to spend money to make the property as safe as possible.

If the hotel failed in its duty to provide you with a safe and healthful environment, you can sue the business owner or company for bodily harm, emotional trauma, and/or property damage. This is based on premises liability, which is a legal concept that holds owner responsible for dangerous conditions on their property. Common hazards that can cause injury to guests at a hotel include:
- Water and other slippery substances on the floor
- Broken concrete on steps, walkways, and sidewalks
- Poorly designed handrails
- Broken locks and alarms
- Lack of surveillance cameras and bright lighting
- Cords and wires that are properly secured
- Rotted branches due to failure to maintain the trees
- Structural issues like sagging ceilings and water damaged roofs
- Defective appliances, such as coffee makers and air conditioners
- Understaffing or failure to provide adequate training to employees
As you can see, there are plenty of situations that allow for accidents or assault and battery at America’s Best Value Inn. This is why regular inspections of the property, cleaning, repairs, and other kinds of maintenance must take place on a regular basis. Motel owners that choose to neglect these duties can be sued by those who are injured on the property.

Suing for Dog Bites at America’s Best Value InnAs with most other states in the U.S., California follows the system of strict liability for injuries caused by a pet. So, just about every dog bite case is blamed on the owner, whether they did something to make the dog attack the person or not. In addition, it’s irrelevant if the dog has no previous history of aggressive behavior. If someone’s dog caused you bodily harm, you generally have the right to seek monetary damages from the owner.
However, there are exceptions if there is another party that’s responsible for the dog, like a veterinary clinic or grooming shop. In these situations, the business / person handling the dog may be liable for an animal attack. On the one hand, a dog-friendly hotel does not assume the same degree of responsibility for pets brought in by a guest as a veterinarian. However, they can’t escape liability altogether when they have a policy that allows animals on the property. In some cases, lack of maintenance or policies for how and where to keep the dog may be the reason that a guest is bitten or harmed in some other way.
Ultimately, it’s important to explore every possible avenue and ensure that you are going after all the parties that failed in their duty of care to you.
