Very nice property
Pros:

Came to Dekalb for a week to help with a family matter, price and proximity to a relative's home was the priority, so was pleasantly surprised at how genuinely nice this property was. Very clean, updated, even had a TV package with MSNOW which is rare in a Best Western (often there's some kind of basic DishTV package with no news channels). Staff were wonderful. I didn't use the pool or eat breakfast on site so can't comment but would highly recommend this property.

I had a wonderful stay and look forward to staying there again when I visit there again.
Pros:

I like the view we had from our room on the second floor. I also liked that there was Laminate floors and not carpet. The Breakfast was good and housekeeping and yolonda at the front desk was Generous as well.

Cons:

The Laminate floor felt a little off balance. Some of the floor slats were making cracking sound when walking.

$90 for an overnight with hard water
Pros:

The available soap for body and hair

It looks old and rundown. The rooms look like motel 6 conversions.
