Although the neighborhood isn’t ideal, they have a gated fence and security on the premise. I never felt unsafe. The room was very clean and super comfortable. I would stay here again.

The only thing I can say that was the curtains needed to be a little bit bigger. Other than that I really liked it. I will stay there again.

Fine if you have realistic expectations

We knew we had booked an economy room at a very reasonable rate, and our stay lived up to expectations. The room was small but very clean and management was very friendly and helpful. King size bed was comfortable and gated parking was a definite plus. We would rate comfort higher if there was a bedside table and lamp on both sides of the bed and 2 pillows per side. Most surprising was the lack of a closet or anywhere else to hang clothes. What looked at first glance like a curtained closet was actually covering a door to an adjacent room. Would also have appreciated a desk or table with chair. But we greatly appreciated the owner's understanding when we had to cancel a res for son and grandson on short notice due to a family emergency in Idaho. Thanks!

If you know Aurora, you know that it can be a sketchy area, but it also is convenient for launching to several of the activities I go to this city for. With that said, this property belies the neighborhood in which it sits. The rooms are recently renovated and clean, the parking lot is isolated from the road by a nice iron gate and the staff are all very friendly and responsive with requests. The rates are great for the service you get and I will make Best Motel my regular stop when I visit Seattle from now on.
