Enjoyed the location and price, but couldn’t help but feel dirty.
Pros:

Great location, good price, friendly staff

Cons:

Was not entirely clean. Dust and undetermined crumbs in the corner and edges of the room. Unknown stains in various areas around room. Tried not to think about it but just hoped and prayed the bed was cleaned. Best shower of my life after my trip was over.

It was just one night. Sadly my stay was a pleasant experience.
Pros:

I liked its location. It's a short drive to downtown Frederick. Close to the highway exit. Its inside of what it looks like a nice neighborhood. It has gas stations, grocery stores, pharmacy close by which is convenient. It serves breakfast, but don't expect much. Check out is at 11.

Cons:

It's only 2 floors but no elevator. The refrigerator was not cold at all, the AC needs improvement,. No first floor bathroom unless you have your room key. Mainlobby needs a more inviting atmosphere. They need to pest control. I got in the room and started to feel itchy. I couldn't sleep and when I woke up I had red bug bites all over my body. The pillows could be more comfortable.

A comfortable and spacious room with a few details that could use improvement
Pros:

The room was spacious, with a new smart TV and a cozy reading corner. The bed was comfortable, and we were provided with more than enough spotless towels.

Cons:

The floor didn’t look completely clean, mainly because of the old carpet, so it would have been nice to have disposable slippers. During the night, an old blanket started coming out from inside the bedding, which wasn’t particularly pleasant. The bathroom is very small, to the point that the sink is actually located in the entryway. I personally didn’t mind that too much, but the toilet and shower area is definitely quite cramped and awkward to use. Check-out is at 11, which is great, but breakfast ends at 9:30, which seems a little inconsistent.

For the price and location, it was not bad.
Pros:

The staff was very friendly, and the building itself was clean and well maintained.

Cons:

The AC in the room barely worked, and it never got anywhere near as cold as it should have.

Friendly staff and great location
Pros:

Location was great

Cons:

The entire hotel smelled like cigarettes my room smelled like cigarettes, the door handle in the bathroom was broken off, the tub could’ve been cleaned better. There was hair in the tub when I arrived
The rug smelled horrible. The bed was comfortable.
Breakfast was lacking, all bread carbs no fruit or yogurt
Coffee was good
For $157 definitely not worth the cost
I originally had reservations at a different hotel, but I picked the best western because it had breakfast and a pool only to find out the pool was closed so I couldn’t swim
They originally gave me a second floor, and you have no elevator. There was no way I can carry my luggage up those flight of stairs without a luggage cart.
I would not recommend or go back
