Highly recommend! very well maintained and cheap price, though it looked aged, quite noisy in the bathroom when vacuum was turned on. Overall, good enough for a short stay. No crouches at all lol
I will never stay at this location again. Musky smell, unfriendly staff and homeless drug addicts had better service and access in the breakfast area than the guests. Staff is conditioned to allow this as they didnt blink an eye. Hoarding food and laudering in the area. This has also made me question my patronage to the Best Western chain.
We had to wait over an hour for our airport shuttle. Then, upon entry to our room it smelled of heavy disinfectant or deodorizing spray. The hotel staff were hardly apologetic and did not come to assess the room. They could not offer us another room and didn’t offer any other type of compensation.

This motel was excellent for staying a day before our cruise, and there was a small mall across the road which had a Bealls and dollar store for picking up last minute items and a couple of restaurants. Actually we ate at McDonald's which was across the road from the hotel.
Excellent breakfast and all team are very friendly

The hotel needs updating. The thing that needs the most updating is the lack of customer service by the front desk staff, they were not very helpful. If you asked about anything in the area they would not know, a bit of customer support would be helpful.

Front desk could be friendlier. Was told when I was checking in that I wasn’t there and that they were full. After looking again she found it
