The pool was really cold and had a lot of stuff floating, wasn’t very clear. Bathroom in the room was visibly dirty and had a mildew odor - we could tell it was barely, if at all, wiped down. Neither plug ins in the lamp worked. The faucet in the sink area was extremely powerful and sprayed us and everywhere around the sink when we turned it on. Hidden $20 pet fee *per night* upon check in. Overall very unimpressed with the stay for the price we payed.

Weekend Stay

Everything was nice with the exception of the bed. The firmness of the mattress was harder than a brick. Also, our toilet was broken.

The room had a humid smell when we walked in. Smelled old and rancid. The carpet was dirty, furniture was old and paint was chipped. The rooms could definitely use a face lift.

Spiders dang spiders!!!!!! I am terrified of spiders and had to call front desk about someone to remove them. I can’t use the shower now bc of that. Hopefully there won’t be anymore tonight. I don’t feel safe here. As soon as I got out of my car I was asked for money by some man on a bike. The room looks like it’s been through hell. Patches and peeling of the walls. The outlets on the lamps were removed or outdated. Floating headboards work better when they are centered over the bed, if you can call it a bed. It was falling apart. Drawers dont close all the way. The building itself is humid and had a musky smell. the elevator smelled like burned wires. I spent like $200 for a room for the night. Not worth it. Best western has forever lost my business. I have pictures for examples if needed.
