Stayed here two nights to attend a wedding being held at the hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful, banquet facilities are decent and the bar and restaurant were good. I used the pool and sauna and they were both clean and added a nice reprieve. My room was rather disappointing though. If the heater wasn’t going steady, the room became cold instantly. The carpet was grungy and needs to be changed out. Flimsy comforter on the bed (had to ask for an extra blanket. The bathroom was clean but the tub and shower were subpar. And no coffee maker in the room. Free coffee is available at the front lobby but c’mon Best Western, get with the times!

No stars isn't an option. Overpriced. At $300, I expect a much higher standard. Staff said no refunds or compromises could be made since booked through expedia. Swarms of bugs at the entrance and hallways. Paper-thin towels. No coffee in the room. No breakfast. (Although the thoughtful staff did provide one in the dining room, where the staff was amazing). Virtually unfunctioning TV. WORST EXPERIENCE EVER WITH EXPEDIA
