Ana at the front desk was amazing and Ms. Jerry who hosted breakfast was so lovely. Just an amazing experience from the service of workers at the Best Western. Hotel is exactly what you pay for so don’t expect much, but room was very big and spacious, bathroom is okay but do-able for price. Free breakfast is always amazing anywhere. I’d stay there again and again just from the service. Lovely people!

The room met expectations. Staff were very friendly. Bedding was horrible. Mattress was ok but covers where soooo thin. It was like having three sheets. Personally I like a nice comforter. I asked for another blanket but it still wasn’t to my liking. No tub in the room, which was fine for me, but if needed you should ask. Location was great. Parking wasn’t that bad if you have someone with you. Luckily I was able to get a spot in front but they were very limited. Once again, staff was great.

The housekeeper stole my belongings and they aren’t friendly. They continue to charge you $100 “incidental” even if you don’t check out, they’ll purposely check you out.

Engaged with 3 different front desk ladies, all 3 were very friendly and provided great service. Also there was a lady working in the breakfast area who was extremely nice and was catering to people’s needs. I was very impressed with her work ethic.
