The man who checked me in was very kind when we arrived in the middle of the night. The beds were very comfortable and the TV had Netflix and YouTube which was nice. Conveniently located next to I40

My family and I stayed here over thanksgiving. Every front desk person we had an interaction with was amazingly nice and super helpful with anything we needed! Breakfast was simple and easy. It was quiet and calm which was really nice and made for an easy sleep each night! The bathrooms were clean and easy to use. Check in and check out we’re super simple and quick. We were able to park right in front of our hotel door which was amazing for getting stuff in and out of there! It’s also tucked back by lowes so it makes it easier to get out of the lot and drive to get food or to go anywhere you need rather than trying to get onto a busy road immediately. Overall it’s a nice hotel and would stay again.

Comfortable stay
Evening front desk was very welcoming. It was a nice, warm basic king room with an outside entrance. Breakfast was sparse, but enough to get us on the road again.

I was pretty shocked this was a Best Western. I'm not a fan at staying at this type of hotel, or motel in this case. If I didn't see the sign say it was a Best Western I would have assumed it was a regular roadside mom and pop trucker stop hotel. The only redeeming thing was the room was pretty decent and it was clean. The bathroom was ridiculous as you nearly have to step into the shower to close the door to use the bathroom/ or take a shower. I should have looked the property over more when I was booking, so it was my bad for not noticing what I paid for. So this one is on me... But I've learned my lesson, Best Western will be the last choice for me in the future.

The only part that was disappointing was breakfast. The eggs looked like they had been flattened out n tasted nasty, no waffles, bagels or muffins.

This is a dated property, but clean. As a matter of fact, when we arrived, they were cleaning the carpets. We stayed in a Pet room - no odours. Breakfast was standard fare. Close to a mall for food
