Do not recommend
This hotel is clearly going down hill. The pools are not open and does not look like they will ever be. The hotel is run down especially the outside and courtyard area. It is also a motel which feels unsafe in a not great neighborhood.
Would never make this mistake again. Had two nights booked, moved elsewhere for the second night knowing I would never be refunded. Unsafe. Dirty. Shabby. Loud. Left at 5 am after doors slammed around me all night, people passed out on the grass outside the lobby.
The place was an absolute dump! WiFi didn’t work, pools were down, grounds gross. The room was clean is best we could say. We had to pick here for the town and to get the size room we needed but awful!
The staff are friendly , professional , kind , caring and clean hotel . I would definitely recommend to all my friends and families.
Thank you very much Best Western!!!
The pool and spa were being rehabilitated and not available. If we knew we would’ve booked elsewhere. Signs of wear/tear - cracked sink, scratched floors, squeaky shower, brown lawn, featured fountain not working. Service was helpful and breakfast was good.
When we arrived, we learned that the pool (featured in the Hotels.com description) was closed due to an ongoing maintenance problem. We went to our room and discovered the floors had not been vacuumed and the bedding was not fresh--pubic hairs on the sheets. A large mirror was cracked in several places--a safety hazard. We complained to the manager and she admitted that there were serious issues with housekeeping. She offered a full refund if we wanted to find other lodging. By this time it was late and we didn't expect we'd be able to find anything. She, however, went above and beyond and called the manager at a competitor hotel to see if she could accommodate us. We were not expecting that! The property gets a rating of 1; the manager deserves a 10+ and a better facility to manage.
Minuses: Member of housekeeping staff unexpectedly opened door unannounced and without knocking, and leftover food container was found in mini fridge.
Pluses: Front desk manager was extremely understanding and apologetic, and was helpful in finding us another hotel to go to.
Misty who checked us in was very friendly and had excellent customer service.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The property is showing its age. I booked in April, and it’s my fault I didn’t check back before my trip. I specifically wanted a property with a pool, but the pool is closed at this time. It’s not even filled up. We liked the breakfast and spacious room. The staff was friendly. The area outside the rooms was dirty and could use attention.
