Had an excellent stay. The only issue I had was not being allowed to check in taroubd 1:15 to drop off our bags a few minutes before our wine tour and to try and charge $40 for early check in. It was a Monday, the hotel was not busy so could have shown a little more flexibility.

The property was fine for an overnight stay. Staff were very welcoming and friendly. Carpets looked as though they could use a good cleaning but the rest of the room and public areas were very clean and in good condition. The air conditioner in the room was extremely loud-bring ear plugs if you like a quiet sleeping environment.

We had an awesome time at Colonel Butler Best Western. We were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary and they had a bottle of champagne waiting for us. They made our special day very special. The room was small but very clean and the breakfast was good too.

It’s a really beautiful hotel with flowers at the entrance. I would say , all meets our expectations. The room is big , clean and very organized. It’s a walking distance to the downtown. The staff at the reception is very helpful when I asked her help with the restaurant info in the town. Having Breakfast at the balcony is a great experience.
