Awesomeness and some change
Pros:

I had a very enjoyable stay at the best western in Bessemer and I would advise all families and friends to go there and have the same joy that I did. The lady at the front desk is one of the nicest ladies I have ever met.

One night in Bessemer
Pros:

It was close to restaurant and fast food places. It is a great value. The person who prepared breakfast has a great personality.

Cons:

The waiting at the front desk to checkout, when there was no other guest waiting. There was one man sitting in a chair, but I didn't know what his dilemma was. When the clerk finally emerged from the back, she didn't look happy. I don't recall a "good morning" or "how was your stay". As I was leaving, I heard her say to the man, "I can help you now".
