Very pleasant stay

Our stay at this Best Western was very pleasant. The receptionist could not have been nicer, and the hotel was very clean. The building itself is older and shows signs of wear, but that didn't effect our stay. I would recommend this hotel.

Nice humble hotel with delicious egg, bacon and waffle breakfast (grits/cereal/). Room and bathroom was small, but quiet, dark and comfortable. Desk and pull-out coffee maker were nice. Luggage rack. Closet. Climate control not central heat/air, nice white noise when I turned it on. Slept well. Quiet refrigerator in the room. Roomy gym.
