Categories

Cleanliness
7.2
Rooms are generally clean and some guests reported recent remodeling and good housekeeping, but several mentions of a faint musty smell, a stained shower curtain and dirty glass suggest inconsistent cleanliness in places.
Service
8.3
Service is frequently praised — staff described as friendly, helpful and pleasant. One report of poor communication about a broken dryer lowers the score slightly.
Location
8
Multiple guests cited a good, central location and convenient parking (including parking in front of rooms). The split layout (rooms across the lot from the lobby) is noted as a minor inconvenience.
Room Quality
7.6
Rooms are spacious for some guests and show evidence of remodeling (wood-look vinyl floors); amenities like full-size fridge, stove and microwave are positives. Downsides include door frame gaps, occasional odors and trade-offs in bed size and lack of a comfortable chair.
Amenities
8.2
Well-equipped rooms with full-size refrigerator, cooktop and microwave are consistently praised. On-site amenities have issues: no available hair dryer for guests and at least one broken dryer in laundry facilities; breakfast offerings are limited.
Value for Money
8
Several guests commented the price was reasonable and the property offered good value given location and in-room appliances; rating reflects good value with some maintenance trade-offs.
Food and Beverage
6.4
Breakfast is consistently described as limited in variety, served in a very small area and largely prepackaged aside from fruit — adequate to start the day but not strong for food-focused guests.
Overall Experience
7.9
Overall stays are positive: guests report clean rooms, friendly staff and useful in-room amenities. However, maintenance issues (dated exterior, odors, broken laundry) and limited breakfast moderate the experience.

Why stay at Best Western,when the price and breakfast is better here. 4.5 Stars ****.*
Pros:

I liked that everyone was nice to me and my service animal.Im a seeing impaired Veteran. The front desk Young man was Very responsive and respectful upon check-in. The ladies in the AM are absolutely wonderful people.
Everything has been great while in town for my daughters funeral and final send off.
Only thing that needs to be fixed is the Hot water in the bathroom (room 134). Sink is extra hot, but tub is like warm at best.(maybe knob needs to be fixed or something). After a long hard day. Nobody likes a cold soak when your older bones hurt.
Besides that everything was fantastic, breakfast was great better then Best Western. So I would give 4.5 stars, if bathroom had Hot water they would have gotten 5. Thanks for having us.

Cons:

The like warm water in the bathtub. Like I said maybe it's just the handle that needs attention. Safe quiet area , no one bothered me or my wife. Pretty great people here at this location, I would definitely recommend.

Would stay here again!
Pros:

Location was perfect. Very close to Cumberland Gap National Historic Park. Walking distance to the shops and restaurants downtown.
It’s an older property but the room was clean and comfortable. As it’s an extended stay property, the room had a stove, refrigerator, microwave and sink. No cooking utensils and no coffee maker.

Cons:

No coffee maker in the room

tevreden
Pros:

buitenkant gebouw is zeer
verouderd, maar de kamer was
helemaal prima. Ontbijt zaaltje zeer klein maar ze boden genoeg aan om niet met honger op pad te gaan! Vriendelijke dame in de ochtend in de receptie.

Cons:

Buitenkant kan wel een opknapbeurt gebruiken.

Overall, this motel was adequate. The staff were pleasant and the room was clean.
Pros:

The coffee was good. The room was clean and showed evidence of recent remodeling. I liked the fact that the floor was a wood-look vinyl rather than carpet. I was able to park in front of my room for easy access.

Cons:

The motel rooms are in a two-story building that is across the parking lot from the lobby. The lobby is one small room with a front desk and a handful of tables for eating breakfast. Breakfast offerings consisted of packaged, ready-to-eat foods, except for the fruit. While the exterior door to our room locked, you could see daylight through large cracks around the door frame. Our room had a faint musty smell.

Great stay
Pros:

Full size fridge, cook top burners, microwave

Cons:

Trade off for the fridge was a queen size bed when we were used to a king but was ok with us. Also be nice to have some sort of soft comfortable chair

Not for the regular travelers
Pros:

Nothing.

Cons:

Broken dryer after doing wash. Incompetence on staff not to put a sign or something saying out of order. Night shift person knows it’s broken. Day shift person has know clue as to what it going on at the hotel.

Clean, friendly place to stay!!
Pros:

We had stayed at another Siberian and it was terrible. I was afraid but completely relived when we got to this one. Very clean, staff was excellent.

Cons:

Didn’t have a hair dryer. Not even one at the desk that you could borrow. That would have been wonderful!

Pros:

The room was clean and comfortable

Cons:

The outside of the hotel needs a major renovation. Because the rooms are nice, I think that this hotel would be booked a lot more if a update was done t o the outside, parking lot and pool area.
