Very good

No fan in bathroom , shower head was mediocre, tv control was impossible to figure out. Mattress was hard and springy.

Our room was clean and the breakfast was decent with protein options. But we were disappointed in the fact that housekeeping is not provided daily. I was not told this at check in and was surprised to see our beds not made after the first night. Apparently it is only provided after the 4th night. When we needed new towels, the front desk person asked, “Right now?” it sounded like I was inconveniencing her. Then the next day we needed our trash cans emptied. When I called the front desk, they said they will have housekeeping come in to empty them. When we returned to the room later that evening, the trash cans were still overflowing. I had to ask a hotel worker who was sweeping outside to throw the bags out and give me new bags.
I expected better customer service for what we paid. We will not be staying at a Best Western again.
There were quite a few fragrant plants around the property. The facility is clean and lots of natural light. Our room was spacious and clean. The bedding was comfortable. Enjoyed the morning complimentary breakfast. the breakfast area was also spacious.
Everyone was nice, the room was clean, parking is a lil tight but not a big deal. The only thing was that the toilet ran all night, like the water in the toilet and it was so loud…made it hard to sleep. The pool was nice but the hot tub looked discolored. The walls of the hot tub were dirty, maybe thats why. But overall safe and quiet… all ok for the price.
There was only 4 non caffeine coffee supplied in the room.
There was only 2 Kleenex’s in the Kleenex box. No extra box.
Air conditioning was not on in the room when we arrived. Room was very hot. We kept the door open for awhile so room could cool off.
Cleanliness is very important to me. The room was clean and comfortable. I have noticed in some hotels that the AC unit dehumidifies the room leaving my throat and nose dry. Didn't have that problem here even though I ran the AC unit all night.
The Property was Okay, But I was charged To much on Days 2 & 3--as I was told the Price including TAX would be $139 a Day!- I Was charged $632.84,but total Should of been around $556!- I'm a 100% Disabled VETERAN of the UNITED States of America-Not Just of OKLAHOMA,I Live In Okla.,But My card shows that I'm 100% DISABLED for USA!-I'm TAX Exemption For USA!
Though I was on the ground floor, there were a lot of short steps that made maneuvering difficult for my arthritic knees. I was able to figure out how to maneuver around the steps before I left.
This older style motel has been modernized with a pleasant check in area and breakfast room. Our room was spacious, comfortable and clean. It had everything we needed, including an iron and ironing board, useful since we were going to a wedding! Breakfast was included, with plenty of self service options.

The rooms where clean the pool and hot tube where nice and it was an easy on and off the freeway location. The dinning close by wasn’t to bad either I enjoyed the sushi just down the street from the motel I would definitely stay there again and would recommend it to a friend
I booked thinking this was one of the better hotels in the area and stayed with my girlfriend. We realized quickly that this was more of a Motel. The room was stuffy with no way to open windows, there were questionable clientele coming in and out through all hours of the night. The jacuzzi and pool were surrounded by all the rooms that could look out at you vs. being private. Zero chance at a good view. Just the main road nearby and a gas station. I tried to cancel my second night and was checked out by 11am, but they were firm on charging me for the second night, despite having most of their rooms vacant and the bad experience. Not much good to report here folks, but this is what you get for over $160 a night in this economy. Bad times.

The property itself is very old and worn down. Everything is loud, the plumbing the wall air unit. It was clean. The person that checked me in was very professional and friendly, but the overall quality and condition of the property is a three star at best I walked around from there. There were a couple Fast food restaurants and a convenience store nearby but that’s it unless you wanna drive. . I am not sure where the plus part of the title of the property falls into place.
It was easy to get to all the places that we needed to get to the service was great but people at the desk were very friendly and the breakfast is very good and we thank you
