Front desk associate friendly and check in went smooth.
Disappointed that sheets were visibly dirty. I reported and they handed me a new set so I could change them.

Mediocre
Room was ok, bed was comfortable, low water pressure in shower.Not the cleanest room i havs stayed in, but not too bad. Breakfast was aweful! Limited selection, watery OJ, and lousy coffee. The girl attending the breakfast area had her face buried in her cell phone the entire time we were eating.

good location, nice room
beds were nice, bathroom was nice, but the water pressure / shower head sucked like they usually do at most hotels, the free breakfast was okay, the check in and check out process was the easiest I have ever been through in my life at any hotel, no extra forms to sign or charge of a credit card for incidentals which will be refunded like at other hotels, price was kind of expensive for one night, also there should be a microwave in the room for the price, not just a refrigerator, great location, easy to get in and out of the parking lot, free Wi-Fi, given password upon checkin

It was just one night family trip. While the staff was extremely friendly and social, the room was dirty, stains on carpets, dirty sheets. One piece of kleenex was stuffed into the peep hole!

Ok
The property was clean. They came to change the sheets and towels every day. The staff was friendly.
My main complaint was that i found two live roaches in my bathroom when I woke up in the middle of the night.

Spend more, skip this hotel.
While this hotel does get the job done is is a 2 star hotel AT BEST. The walls are paper thin, you hear everything. The rooms are outdated and very filthy/stained. My room had old stickers on the walls, rust stains in the shower, and it seems a lot of people live here full time. No cockroaches but did find a small lizard in the room!!

Hotels are a people business…act like you care
Room issues broken tv broken hair dryer. Ladies helpful and nice. Man at front desk doesn’t seem to like his job…zero customer care no greetings ever even during New Years. I observed the phone ringing at least 50 times while getting coffee. He was standing in hall chatting with female co-worker. Answered phone annoyed saying they were very busy. No way to run a hotel! Be nice to people greet them and smile and maybe they’ll want to come back again…

The lady that checked us in was very nice. However, the room did seem to have some sort of smell. Overall, this hotel does seem old and looks like it needs to be updated.

Really was disappointed in Best Western. Rooms were dirty and smelled like a wet bathing suit. The AC was not efficient and there were Roaches in the bathroom during the night. Worst stay in a Best Western.

Older but overall OK
This is an older hotel that needs to be upgraded, BUT, the room was clean and much more attractive than the hallways. Staff was gracious. Parking is tight.

It was a quick and convenient place for us to stay with an early flight. Upon entering our room, there was a plug in fan that was on the ground, on, and pointed at the entry door. The entry door looked like there was a leak running down the trim and it was stained and a little moldy looking.
