This is a dated property that has been updated a little to meet minimum standards for this brand name. Very tight parking in places. Not recommended for trailers. hallway rugs very old but rooms seem remodeled. Rooms relatively clean but toilet wobbled on mounts. Location is RIGHT next to the interstate so it was very noisy. NO CAFFINATED COFFEE for room coffee makers, even at desk. Not cool. Tolerable but photos are misleading.

Amazing breakfast
The condition of the building was as expected for a Best Western. The staff was very pleasant and engaging. My surprise was the breakfast. The size and quality of the breakfast far surpassed most any hotel I have stayed at. I will definitely stay there again.

Outstanding Review
Was recommended by a coworker to stay and it did not disappoint! I enjoyed my stay, the breakfast was very good and the amenities were outstanding! It’s worth staying and paying a lil extra and I highly recommend people that are looking for a good stay, to definitely check this place out! It’s a 10 in my book!!!

The stay was going well till we decided to take a shower. Upon entering the bathroom we notice the shower had hair and nice the water had started running we noticed it was not draining well. Needles to say it’s not a pleasant experience to shower with water pooling over your feet.

The staff was very friendly and accomadating. Room was a bit dated, but was clean. Easy access to freeway. Breakfast would be great, if they had better "scrambled eggs" ... Overall, would definitely stay here in the future! Thanks to Maritza, Frank, and rest of staff!
