Room was clean. Building is under repairs so no amenities were available. If you are coming to only sleep, It is good enough. I will stay again at this hotel if I need to just sleep.

It’s under construction, so it is somewhat chaotic. No shampoo or conditioner provided, only shower gel. Staff are nice and helpful.

Was pleasantly surprised after reading previous reviews. They are renovating rooms and you can tell they are putting forth an effort to improve the place inside and out. The room we stayed in was basically brand new, even had to peel the plastic off the mirror. There are areas that are currently being renovated but it didn't effect our stay.

Late check in is tough but need to be friendlier to travelers. We didn't plan to be late, but combination of airlines and car rentals made us late.

Room was clean enough. But the entire place is under renovations and that was not mentioned anywhere until we got there. Pool was closed, there were beds strewn about in the hallways, our room door didnt close properly, there were no hooks/ places to hang towels in the bathroom.

The property was undergoing some maintenance. There were mattresses in the hallways. Curtains had rips/holes in them. There is potential here, but I would not hurry to book again unless I know upgrades are done.

Pool was closed. Staff was never at the front desk. Breakfast was staged, but not really there. On a positive note, the room was very clean and well maintained.. I had a message stating that the price of my room had gone done, I was refused the new price as I was told it was another hotel. It was not.

The hotel was undergoing renovations during our stay. There was no wifi, no tv, and no pool, none of which was communicated during booking. Breakfast was fine - very limited selection but overall OK. Our room was not especially clean, with stains on the walls and ceiling and bathroom, but it was not terrible. The most frustrating experience was on the day we were checking out our keycards stopped working during breakfast around 8AM, probably some kind of error with the time-out on the card. Normally this wouldn't be a big deal but there was no one at the front desk to help us. A note said to call a specific number if you needed help but when I dialed the number it just rang the front desk. I roamed the hallways looking for anyone working there and there was literally not one single staff around to help me get back into my room. Absolutely ridiculous. Eventually, after around an hour of being locked out of my room, a cleaning staff member arrived and I was able to get back into my room. If competence, cleanliness and convenience are important to you in any way, choose a different hotel!

We did not know until we arrived at the hotel that it was undergoing a major renovation. While our room was okay, when we arrived we found construction dirt in the bathroom, which an overworked housekeeping staff came and cleaned up. The hallways were full of construction dust and some paint buckets. THe stairwell was questionable for use as it had construction equipment and painting materials in it. Breakfast was to have been open at 6:00 am, and we need to be on the road so arrived at 6 only to find it not prepared so we grabbed a coffee and left without breakfast. Hopefully, now that Best Western is running the show things will pick up, and probably the price will go up as well! The housekeeping staff was very friendly, though way overworked.
