Categories

Cleanliness
6.5
Mixed reports: many guests praised cleanliness and comfortable beds, but multiple serious negatives (moldy or musty smells, wet sheets, cigarette smoke in one room) lower the overall cleanliness sentiment.
Service
8.8
Service generally receives strong praise: staff described as very friendly, helpful and professional with fast check-in; isolated reports of poor handling of a smoke complaint and unresponsive management are present but not dominant.
Location
9
Location is a clear strength—convenient proximity to the casino, Durant, shopping and local venues is repeatedly noted positively.
Room Quality
7
Rooms are often described as big and comfortable, but issues include outdated appearance, low water pressure in showers, TV reboot problems, and occasional odors which bring down the room-quality rating.
Amenities
7.5
Amenities are adequate (fridge in room, breakfast area), but lack of an elevator and some facility aging are recurring negatives that reduce the score.
Value for Money
7.7
Mixed value: several guests felt it was good value or reasonable for their needs, while others found the price high for holiday weekends or felt it was not worth it when rooms had major issues.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast is consistently praised (fresh, good options); isolated complaints about staff behavior during breakfast do not outweigh the generally positive food-and-beverage sentiment.
Overall Experience
8.5
Overall experience is positive for most guests—comfortable, quiet stays and helpful staff lead to many repeat recommendations, though a minority of serious problems (smoke/mold, lack of responsiveness) negatively impacted some stays.

Very comfortable, quiet place to stay
Pros:

Price was a bit high but for a holiday weekend, it was doable and After a 5 hour drive and hours of walking, sitting in the casino ... a quiet comfortable space/bed was very much needed and it was met by this Best Western. Big, clean rooms. We will definitely return for another stay

Cons:

Price a bit high. Have stayed at the casino across the highway for same price
