The room was great; it was very clean. My only complaint is that the water in the shower wouldn't get very hot. Other than that, it was great, with a perfect view of the city.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I was extremely unhappy with the hotel. The internet didn’t work, and I was there for work, so I couldn’t get my job done. I complained to the lobby, they connected me with the internet provider (FOX), but they couldn’t fix it. I had to walk across the street to Starbucks to get my work done. Additionally, the staff was not friendly. I would never stay at Best Western again. On top of that, Expedia caused me a lot of problems. There was a glitch in their system, showing three itineraries. How could I have three hotels at the same time, checking in and out simultaneously, half a mile apart? I got charged and had to call five or six times, yet my issue still isn’t resolved. I’ve sent five emails and received no resolution. I will report this to the BBB and leave a bad review if no one gets back to me.

Likes: cleaniness of the room, staff at the front desk was polite and made check in easy Dislikes: Parking was not sufficient even though we paid $37 for parking , parking space was very narrow. Our room was supposedly with bay view, but only a glimpse of bay from far distance and mainly the gas station view. Heater was not working, only making loud noises, called help desk but no one answered until 6 am. The person who answered my call at 6 am apologized to me in appropriate manner. Overall, we would not like return to this place in the future.
