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!

The property and staff was excellent. However, they never received my reservation from Expedia so it took us a while to checkin. However, staff was very diligent and making sure we got the room that I paid for.

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 The rooms are outdated and very filthy/stained.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.
