Pros:

Check in was great! The room was a suite so it was large. Bathroom needs to be gutted and redone. We were scared to use the shower. It was mildewed and dirty. Air handler the first night was super loud. Second night was better. Window not functioning properly. We will choose another hotel next time.

Pros:

Pool indoors good
No towel service or room cleanup staff defensive said management won't change leftover from covid. Wasn't told at checkin. Very aggressive when asked about. Hotel and parking lot need attention. I've stayed there many times over the years, never again.

Pros:

Front desk lady was extremely rude. Said our room wasn’t ready. We went walking around the property while waiting & there wasn’t a single housekeeping cart anywhere. Pool for the little kids is extremely cold. Hot tub isn’t very hot (bath water temperature). Room was decently clean, but there is peeling paint on the walls. The tub has black in the sealant.

Pros:

Toilet had a bad ball valve so it would run continuously unless you jiggled the he handle. Towels were a little thin and not very many. Not very many Towels in the pool area. There was a couple of Birthday parties going on so that d I didn't help. Over all not a bad stay.

Pros:

The damp beds in the evening really gets me. K stayed two nights and left sick- wouldn’t surprise me if the beds have mold. No elevator - the drain in the bathtub didn’t work. Trash behind the night stand. Nasty smell on the second floor. Hotel restaurant food is terrible lol my salmon was burnt burnt. I know this hotel has some rough reviews, but I’ve always stayed on the first floor and never had issues.

I give up on best westerns all together - what a mess of a facility.

Pros:

Kids and adults were very loud in the pool area after hours. As I had a pool view 2nd floor room, the noise was distracting until after 1 am.

Great Room/Great Service
Pros:

Check-in was a breeze and was probably the fastest check in I've had! The staff was friendly and the rooms were great. The only downside was the spotty wifi.
