Pros:

Very clean, friendly staff

Quick and easy and painless
Pros:

Every single member of the staff was so accommodating and very kind! I was very shocked at how much they waited on us hand and foot. I don’t think I’ve ever had that experience at Best Western hotel before. This should be recognized! Hard to find these days

BEDBUGS!!!
Pros:

The lady that checked us in was extremely professional.

Cons:

The walk to and from the parking lot. It’s an alley with homeless people and their belongings all over the place. I woke up to SCREAMS from my guest due to a BEDBUG crawling on her face and pillow. The outlets didn’t work to charge phones. So no charged phones!!! When I spoke to the manager she was nonchalant and didn’t act in an urgency manner. When I showed her the video, her reaction was as if this is a common issue. I am extremely disappointed in this stay. I WILL NEVER STAY AT A BEST WESTERN AGAIN!!!
