We have never stay at Best Western and a little nervous about what we might get. It was midnight & only property nearby. The outside is old & has outside door access only. The room was very clean & the bed was comfortable. The staff was very customer service oriented & better than some nicer hotels we have stayed in during recent treats of travel. the breakfast was decent & food tastes good. It was a bit loud being just off the interstate & near fast food restraints. I would stay again!

The only thing I did not care for which is out of the hotels control is that our downstairs neighbor was smoking outside their room. Otherwise the rest of the stay was great.

Second time we have stayed at this facility. It has always been clean. There are minor maintenance items in the rooms that could use some work, but perfect for a stop on a long drive.

Had to wait for front desk person to check in- was 25 minutes when I actually checked my watch- by then I had been waiting and even tried walking in and out. got in the room, unpacked and settled and air conditioning not working. Miserable night sleep trying to ventilate with bathroom fan. Front desk was less than helpful- if I had to go through the effort to get dressed and repack- I would have just left. I was exhausted and already irritated check in took so long.

There was a glitch in my reservation (not caused by Best Western), but Karen at the desk did everything possible to make us welcome and resolve the issue. It's always great to see what a competent person can do to resolve a computer glitch.
