Categories

Cleanliness
7
Many guests repeatedly reported rooms as 'clean' or 'very clean', establishing a generally positive cleanliness impression; however a few reports noted terrible room odor and some public-area cleanliness issues (pool/hall smells).
Service
6.8
Service is frequently praised (friendly, helpful staff; staff went out of their way), but there is at least one significant complaint about an inattentive front desk during a safety/disturbance issue which lowers the score slightly.
Location
7
Location is mentioned positively in a few reviews (convenient to the highway, close to food options); no major negatives reported about location.
Room Quality
6.5
Rooms are generally described as clean and having necessary amenities, but some guests reported issues with bed comfort, blinds that don't close, and occasional unpleasant smells.
Amenities
6
Breakfast and basic amenities are commonly appreciated, but guests reported amenity failures (hot tub out of service, some reports of dirty pool) and inconsistent upkeep.
Value for Money
7
Multiple guests note good cost/benefit and reasonable pricing with adequate breakfast for the price, making value a clear positive overall.
Food and Beverage
6.5
Breakfast is often described as 'good' or fair for the price, though several reviewers asked for improvements (missing waffle machine, some saying breakfast needs major improvement).
Overall Experience
6.8
Overall sentiment is mixed: many satisfied guests citing cleanliness, friendly staff and value, but notable negative incidents (amenity failures, odors, a serious late-night disturbance and inattentive response) reduce the overall experience.

Pros:

We booked this hotel especially for the hot tub to enjoy some relaxation after a long trip but it was out of service. The pool did not look very clean too. The breakfast was good though, it lacks a waffle machine but it's fair overall.

Pros:

We booked last minute, and it took almost an hour for our Expedia reservation to show up in the Best Western system - which mean we had to sit in the lobby and wait and wait and wait. That was a bummer, but the staff was super kind and courteous while we waited.
