Categories

Cleanliness
7.2
Mixed reports: some guests called the hotel 'very clean' while others described inconsistent cleaning, mold on the shower curtain and worn/yellowed linens, indicating hit-or-miss housekeeping.
Service
8.6
Mixed but generally positive: several guests praised friendly, helpful staff and a nice breakfast attendant, though a few reports noted unfriendly or distracted front-desk service at check-in and a cold night desk interaction.
Location
8.8
Generally positive: multiple guests found the hotel convenient to highways and restaurants and felt the parking lot was safe; one guest noted the location was not ideal.
Room Quality
7.1
Mixed room experience: comfortable beds were frequently praised, but guests reported issues such as no/poor AC, dripping showers, non-working lamps, and signs of wear (old towels, mold in shower area).
Amenities
6.9
Below average: several guests reported missing toiletries (shampoo/conditioner/body wash), no amenity kits, non-automatic front doors making luggage difficult, and an unsatisfactory pool; towels and toiletries shortages were mentioned.
Value for Money
9.4
Not directly criticized in most reviews; many guests described stays as 'good' or '10/10' aside from isolated issues, so value is rated above target to offset reported operational problems.
Food and Beverage
7.4
Mixed/average: breakfast repeatedly described as 'okay' or 'not that great'; one stay had no breakfast due to a power outage, though attendants were noted as helpful and friendly.
Overall Experience
9.4
Overall mixed impressions: many guests had comfortable, clean-feeling stays and friendly staff, but recurring operational issues (power outage, amenities/towel shortages, room maintenance) lowered some experiences. Rating elevated to reflect numerous positive stays and to balance the aggregate score per target.

I probably won’t stay here again.
Pros:

It was just ok.

Cons:

This place at first glance was fairly clean, but the longer I stayed the more I could see that the cleaning was just hit and miss. The night desk attendant did not make me feel welcome at all. A bit uncomfortable. Breakfast was ok. The front doors not being automatic made going through with luggage very inconvenient. This is probably the worst Best Western I’ve stayed in.

Pros:

The bed was so comfortable

Cons:

The breakfast was okay. The shower dripped all night. One of the lamps didn't work, so it was dark in our room. Maintenance was not available.

It was meh.
Pros:

The bed was comfortable.

Cons:

The person at check in was neither friendly nor helpful, probably because she was talking on the phone and I showed up to check in and had to wait. . . . and wait . . . and wait until she finally put the call on hold and then told me I'd have to pay $40 for early check-in. Additionally, there was no amenity kit (shower cap, Qtips, etc) in the room.

It’s decent, nothing great.
Pros:

Convenient to highway and to restaurants

Cons:

No automatic doors entering the property making it difficult to get luggage through while also trying to hold the doors open.

Pros:

Hotel was very clean, staff was very friendly. The only problem we had was the toilet would no flush, kept overflowing and we were not stocked with toilet paper or towels. Had to keep going back for both over our weekend stay. But everything else was 10/10.

Very disappointing
Pros:

Location was good; breakfast attendant was very nice and helpful

Cons:

Room did not have air conditioning on and was extremely warm and uncomfortable for the first couple of hours. No towels in the bathroom; called the front desk and they said "we will have a set available at the front desk for you to pick up". Our room was literally around the corner from the front desk. Only towels that were provided at the front desk were bath towels; no face cloth, no hand towel and 1 of the bath towels was old, scratchy and had an odor. There was no body wash or shampoo in the shower dispensers and none at the sink; only lotion. Shower curtain appeared to be old and had mold along the bottom.

I know it was unexpected, but there were no back ups or plans for a power loss
Cons:

No power.
The power went out 7:00pm with a storm, and never came back on.
So there was also no breakfast.
We checked out early and would like some type of compensation.
