Room was ok but smelled of smoke. Needs upkeep - light clearly visible around the door jam. A construction container blocked parking by the room but the desk clerk mentioned nothing. He took a call while I waited to check in without saying “I’ll be with you in a moment.”

JANET, Franktown

We booked the Best Western thinking it would be similar to other Best Westerns. Nope. They only had 2nd story rooms with no elevators. My 90 year old husband cannot do stairs. So we were left on the street with no place to stay, as well as having to pay for 2 nights when we could not get into a room. A horrible experience, with no concern from the manager.

When we booked this “Best Western”, we wrongly assumed it would have similar amenities to all other Best Westerns. When we arrived to check in, were told there were no rooms available on the first floor and that there was no elevator. My 90 year old husband cannot climb stairs. So we were left on the street with no room, but were charged the $300 due to the non-refundable policy. Pretty shocking for us old folks. No more Best Westerns for us 😣

Only stayed one night but the refrigerator didn't work despite being plugged in. When i mentioned it to the receptionist when checking out, she didnt really say much. Would have expected at least a "Im sorry". Other than that, property was comparable to other BWs.

They were remodeling rooms at the resort, so the mattress was new, but they put it on this Metal platform so every time you walked by, you would accidentally kick the platform and it would make a horrible noise if you move too much on the bed it would also be loud. The shower was really gross. You can tell it had not been cleaned in a really long time the bathroom fan did not work.
