Not your normal best western

We were passing through on our way home and it was late. I could barely hold my eyes open, we were extremely tired. It was just myself and my daughter. There were Bugs in room so we left early. Literally in the room less than 5 hours. Then noticed that they charged my card an extra $25 for torn sheets which is absurd.

My guy walked around barefoot in the room and the bottom of his feet were black. That’s how dirty the floors were. Flying bugs were landing on my while I read in bed. Nasty place! All this for almost $500 a night! So glad I never have to stay there again!
