I liked the ease of getting to the hotel and the cleanliness The breakfast was cold most mornings and needed to be microwaved to be hot. When I went to check-in I was told they tried to call me as my card was declined. I corrected the problem and they ran my card with no problem. The problem I have is no one called and when I made the reservation I told them i would pay in person. When I got home I found a bill in my inbox. I have found Best Western to be a reliable hotel chain but after this I don't know if I can stay there. I also am not happy about the $100.00 surcharge.

Good place to stay!

The front desk clerk was wonderful. Very personable. We never did get housekeeping to come and replenish towels. We had to grab them ourselves.

Unhappy.

Check in was slow and not very informative. The room was set to 80 when we got in and it was extremely warm. Parking was horrible. It is a small parking lot and and we had to park over top of the curb and landscape just to have a spot and get things from our vehicle. The back door was was not latching so anything and anyone could come in. Breakfast in the morning was very crammed for space. The food selection was very minimal. Not much out there with a line of people waiting. There was no one at the front desk the entire time we were down for breakfast to talk to about our stay. The key card return box was set on top and that was it.

We didn't like it to where when we went to get the room after booking it on line, there Wasn't any information telling you that there was a required amount of 100.00 dollars deposit on top of what you were already paying. Also they didn't want to give you a receipt when you were leaving showing that you had given a deposit. The breakfast was not too good. My husband had a hard time getting the waffle off the grill for the grill needed to be cleaned so his waffle was burnt. Biscuits and gravy were okay. The best Western plus in independence Missouri was outstanding. We recommend it.

Liked: Clean, staff friendly and helpful and decent breakfast Disliked: got locked in the bathroom the first four times I closed the door and ended up lifting the door off the rollers the last time. Not enough linens for our room, had to ask for more ( odd amount left in room like maybe they forgot to finish linens) . No towels at pool.

Nice hotel

The room was nice, beds were comfortable. The coffee maker didn't work very well and the pool water was cold for my grandchildren. That kind of spoiled their experience. The breakfast was good however with a lot of variety.
