Location was very convenient right off I95. Plenty of parking space for our large trailer. Staff was friendly. Grounds were lovely. Hotel was clean and comfortable. Pet friendly. No concerns about safety while out walking around the shopping area. Fresh cooked breakfast was a bonus on top as well as the friendly waitstaff. Would definitely stay here again.

This appears to be an older Bests Western and it sort of shows its age in the furnishings, the paint, nothing major but noticeable. The bed and bedding were very comfortable, and it is pet friendly which is a huge plus for me. I guess given that it is pet friendly it would be nice to have trash receptacle outside all of the outside entrances to place poop bags, but I had to walk around the entire hotel to get to a trash receptacle on more than one occasion. The room did smell a bit "doggy" which I am not accustomed to as my dogs are shown and are very clean. The front staff was very friendly, and the bar staff were as well, and offered to loan me a bottle opener. It would be nice to have one in each room which seems to be sort of standard. Overall, a decent place to stay, quiet, clean, but sort of pricey IMHO.

I couldn't complete my stay because I didn't feel safe in the area. The room was clean and the front staff was friendly, but the facility smelled terrible like stale smoke, musty carpets, homeless and people in and out and hanging all around the property. They were in the middle of fixing the hot water as well.
