Started promising ended up disappointing

The check in staff was helpful and very friendly. It was disappointing, however that the pool was too full of bugs and hadn’t been clean to even use. A pool was one of the reasons we selected this hotel. I in addition, the fire alarm in the room was chirping all night from either a low battery or dirty connections. The front desk staff was unable to get anyone to fix it for us, and we couldn’t reach it. Sadly, they were unable to do anything, but give a few extra best western points for losing an entire night sleep. Very disappointing! Yeah

We like the location of the property. We did had an issue with the TV and Maintenance was sent to fix it. The tub was draining really slow so water would built up when you are taking a shower. We were there for one night and Maintenance said they would fix it. Otherwise staff was great, breakfast was really good as well.

Great Place!!

This is in a great area. It’s an older property-bathrooms old, but for the price it’s clean and the breakfast is a great addition. Everyone is very nice and helpful. Great location. You can walk to downtown. I would definitely stay here again!!

I arrived after dark following a long drive and waited a bit for the front desk clerk to return, she was assisting another guest, which was understandable. At both check-in and check-out, I was helped by the same young lady, who was competent and pleasant. Unfortunately, my experience took a turn for the worse during the night. The night-shift clerk called my room accusing me of being noisy. In reality, it was the intoxicated guest next door arguing and physically fighting with their partner. This left me feeling unsafe, and I was shocked that such behavior was tolerated. Sadly, the overall atmosphere felt more like a low-budget motel than the Best Western brand I’ve trusted in the past. The worst part? I paid for a sleepless, stressful night, on a bed so hard, I’ve laid on concrete that was softer.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The bed wasn’t too bad, and the cleanliness was decent. It is a best western so I didn’t expect anything crazy for cleanliness or beauty. However, the room my boyfriend and I booked with my service dog was filled with ants. We had to quickly get ready for a wedding so we couldn’t switch rooms in the moment. When we got back from the wedding, our bathroom was filled with ants. The person on the phone tried to argue with my boyfriend and said we didn’t want to switch rooms- which isn’t true. We simply didn’t have time to switch right as we called. Wish I could submit the awful ant photos on this review. We only got comped minimally for this inconvenience. Will never stay here again, and definitely would not recommend.
