The hotel advertised recent renovations, so my wife and I took advantage of a relatively low room rate as an incentive. As it turned out, only the lobby had been renovated; the rooms (or at least our room) had the same tired, worn-out look (and dank smell) as other Best Western properties at which we have stayed. Otherwise, there were dining options within a short driving distance, and breakfast in the morning was good.

Mrs. Mary at the front desk was very friendly and helpful when we checked in at 10pm. She went above and beyond making sure we had everything we needed after traveling for 12 hours. Mrs. Frances in the breakfast area was very efficient in making sure everything was fresh and hot. Will definitely stay here again. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the area is very safe.
