I’m not one to complain but the room was filthy. Bathroom was dirty and the floor was wet with a puddle. Toilet was dirty inside and on the outside had stains. The bath mat was black molded and dirty. The tub held water when we showered it did not drain. The bathroom door did not close. The towels were all damp as was everything in the room. The so called clean washcloth rolled up on the sink had a dead bug inside. The sheets were stained and ripped. The smoke detector on the ceiling was covered with a plastic bag, the lamp was missing a bulb so we couldn’t use it. The chair had a big wet looking stain on it. The ac unit was loud and was all wet. It ran non stop and made the room feel wet and smelled very moldy. The pool was cloudy that you couldn’t even see the bottom and looked like an oil slick on top. When we got there at night there were people sitting on the steps in the back yelling and drinking. There were several ashtrays around the outside all full and with beer cans in them. Do yourself a favor and don’t stay here!

We thought the room was clean and comfortable. The noise level is high because of semi trucks everywhere.

It was a decent stay but obviously the room had not been used recently because there were dead bugs on the floor and in corners. Very low water pressure in the sink but shower was fine. Ok for the discounted price I received from Expedia but not worth the $100+ price advertised by hotel. Not a lot of guest but yet i was not able to arrange for a late checkout of noon.

The entire room was saturated with moisture. Sheets, towels, carpet, hard flooring, desk, chairs & walls were all covered in moisture. We drove 12 hours and checked in at 11pm, and didn’t have the heart to bother the front desk worker - so we slept on the damp sheets. In the middle of the night a cockroach crawled across my arm. We like camping, and often tent. I’ve had less bugs in my tent than I saw in this room. This may have been a one room isolated issue, but it was truly awful.

When I checked in receipt said smoking room and I asked to be switched and was told no because I booked through 3 rd party. To be honest I did dot even look at that when I made the reservation as I thought all hotels are smoke free. Room was dirty (stained) in bathroom. Best Western do better.

The room itself was pleasant enough looking. However, the sheets on the bed were stained, and there were droppings on the bathroom floor. If the sheets could not have been bleached, they should have been thrown away. I probably will not be staying at this location again.
