I only got a room here to have somewhere cold to sleep at night local to my family beach house that my dog was welcome. I also planned to sleep the last day prior to driving 6-8 hours home. The one thing that was an issue was the AC. It seemed to rarely kick on and kept kicking the heat on without me even touching the thermostat. So that was frustrating, up and down all night trying to mess with the AC. I was moved rooms for my last not even full day there and the AC was still a hassle. I didn’t get but an hour of sleep before driving home. The room I was moved to the AC made a loud double clicking noise both in the front room and bedroom everytime it kicked on. It woke me up right as I fell asleep which was beyond frustrating when I just needed to sleep that day for a few hours. I gave up after one hour of sleep before leaving and regretted even moving rooms for a few hours. Otherwise, it was very clean and newly renovated. Definitely the nicest most updated best western I have stayed at but the AC situation made it more frustrating than comfortable. If you enjoy a cold environment to sleep then you will be disappointed- 68 degrees is basically what it allowed from what I was told. I couldn’t sleep with the loud thermostat noise at all for the time I needed to sleep the most, before driving.

This hotel was clean and updated. It was also very convenient. What could make it better would be free water in the room. For the price, I should not have had to pay $3.00 for a bottle of Poland Spring.

Check in was ok except no coffee, pot was covered up and out of order. Could barely hear the person at front desk, it was so loud in the room attached to lobby kept having to ask what did you say. Room was decent, bed was uncomfortable for my taste way too soft. Pool was very clean, no shade not even a umbrella for tables. The restroom/ shower for the pool area was strange. No door just a curtain to pull back. Not safe to me. First night there no hot water. Complained and they say they would check into it. We weren't the only ones. About 2 hours later finally got hot water, but they never came up or called us. We had to keep trying the water. Very unacceptable breakfast the first morning. Came down 45 minutes after breakfast started and nothing. No coffee, no waffle mix, few pieces of bread, no plates, no cups. I went to front desk and they were like the person that runs it is late you'll have to wait. Come on someone has to know how to do something, you have all these people waiting and can't do anything. One of reasons we booked here was the full buffet breakfast, wasnt expecting a great breakfast isnt my first time at a hotel buffet, but was expecting something. Finally about another 30 minutes we started getting food. Personal note no sugar free syrup. Close to Mystic Area about 15min drive, that was a plus. Had a Starbucks right at the end of driveway, if you perfer a coffee place.
