Not the best “best” western

There was trash in the hallways, not picked up 18 hours later and strung down the stairwell. Lobby was dank and musty smelling. Fans were out like they had water damage but the clerk said it was because it was hot. He was full of it because the carpet was soggy.

Decent stay. Fine place to park yourself a few nights. Staff was courteous. It’s dated but you get what you pay for. Bathroom wasn’t cleaned very well - hairs left from last tenant. A/c worked but room felt humid. Breakfast was appreciated. Stay way from the scrambled eggs but the waffles are great.

So sad our experience was as bad as it was. The property is so unkept. It would never pass a Covid inspection. We paid for upgraded suites and it resulted in us feeling like we lived in an apartment complex because the owners family lives in the suites above the ones they rent out. The smell of ethic foods and moth balls was so strong we went and bought candles and air sanitizer just to make it manageable. I will never stay here again, or likely not at a best western again. Yuck!

Just ok for the price

When we first arrived no staff was there to check in. The outside was rundown but the inside looks updated in most spots. The room was updated except for the bathroom. Bathrooms are very small. I did not have the free breakfast but one is available.

Pictures can be deceiving

It was extremely outdated. Pictures posted show it bright and airy. However everything was brown and dark. Very difficult to get from one side of the hotel to the other. The rooms were fine. Bathrooms were very small but the actual room was a decent size.

Although our room appeared to be clean, the common areas did not appear to have been vacumned for quite some time. We went to check out the pool area. No one was there but there were wet towels and candy wrappers strewn about. We waited a bit to see if anyone came to clean up but no one did. Due to the questionable cleanliness of the hotel I would not recommend it. One bright spot, was a very friendly front desk staff.
