Front desk lady was extremely rude. Said our room wasn’t ready. We went walking around the property while waiting & there wasn’t a single housekeeping cart anywhere. Pool for the little kids is extremely cold. Hot tub isn’t very hot (bath water temperature). Room was decently clean, but there is peeling paint on the walls. The tub has black in the sealant.

Toilet had a bad ball valve so it would run continuously unless you jiggled the he handle. Towels were a little thin and not very many. Not very many Towels in the pool area. There was a couple of Birthday parties going on so that d I didn't help. Over all not a bad stay.

The damp beds in the evening really gets me. K stayed two nights and left sick- wouldn’t surprise me if the beds have mold. No elevator - the drain in the bathtub didn’t work. Trash behind the night stand. Nasty smell on the second floor. Hotel restaurant food is terrible lol my salmon was burnt burnt. I know this hotel has some rough reviews, but I’ve always stayed on the first floor and never had issues. I give up on best westerns all together - what a mess of a facility.

The pool was supposed to close at 11… the lady at the front desk said that she just got off the phone with the manager and they both confirmed it’s now open till 12:30am… Absolutely awful stay.

Great Room/Great Service

Check-in was a breeze and was probably the fastest check in I've had! The staff was friendly and the rooms were great. The only downside was the spotty wifi.

The staff was good so no complaints there. We were in town for a wedding. Each room I booked had 2 adults and 2 kids and we had 3 large towels in each room. I went to the desk to ask for more towels and was told there weren't any nor were there any in the pool area. Our room was above the pool area which you know is noisy and the pool was in use very late at night. Our rooms were clean but the hallways were not. The door to get to our room was up the stairs and down a very long hallway. The parking lot would be better off with gravel as it had so many pot holes. I won't be staying here again or recommending it to anyone.
