Rude, unprofessional staff.
Pros:

Rooms are OK just check shower/bathroom/ac unit upon arrival

Cons:

Staff is rude, argumentative with customers.
Have stayed here on and off for work for a few months now, have had some issues with my rooms before but never anything that wasn't resolved until today.
Checked in and got settled into my room, key card quit working, figured out that I was checked into and charged for the WRONG reservation (Nevermind providing my ID and payment card in MY name).
Lady at the front desk (2/12/26 5:27pm), said she fixed my key card for me, no problem.
I return to my room to see on my phone I was also charged again, upon returning to the counter, both the lady at the desk and the hotel manager were both argumentative and confrontational over me being double charged and asking for compensation.
It is not my fault nor should it be my problem your employees cant check someone into the correct reservation, with their identification in hand.
Waiting for a refund, left and will not be back at this location again.
Strongly recommend staying elsewhere.

Not what I expected
Pros:

The hot tub

Cons:

The room was in poor condition and did not meet basic cleanliness or maintenance standards. There was hair left in the tub, sink, and on the bed. The cabinet door would not close properly, the drapes were old, dusty, and hanging off the rack, and portions of the ceiling were deteriorating. Overall, the room appeared neglected and poorly maintained. Unfortunately, this was my first and last time staying at a Best Western again.
