The breakfast buffet at Best Western was not as good as the breakfast buffet at Comfort Inn right down the street. It was very unorganized and the dining area is very small. It was not enough food for the guests. The Comfort Inn was a 5 star breakfast and I looked forward to going downstairs to get breakfast every morning that I stayed there

This hotel is easy to find. Right next to Widner U. It is a newer property, and the property is clean and well lit. We had a king suite which was nice due to the sitting area. The breakfast area was clean and well presented. The receptionist (Rae) was extremely polite. Knowledgeable about Best Western and policies. She explained everything we needed to know about the property. The parking was free. Just a little bit of a walk since it is in the back. Only downside. But not a biggie.

Upon check in the lady was nice enough to allow me to get into my room an hour and a half early(no one there). But she charged me an extra $10 fee to do so. That has never happened and I travel a lot. No big deal but thought I should mention

Check-in was great! But despite their clear messaging that smoking is not permitted, someone had clearly been smoking in this room. I’ve never smoked so it was particularly pungent. Everything else was great!

Canx policy is nuts I will never stay there again. I canx my reservation less than 15 mins after making it and was charged full price cause I didn’t notice the dates were wrong. Terrible policy to “STEAL” money from people like that when I never stayed there. I will file this with the BBB.
