We had a great stay! Jessica was patient, kind, helpful, and knowledgeable. Rooms were clean and convenient. Breakfast was good. We were unsure about the parking fee when parking was in the hotel parking lot. Just an added fee, I guess. Otherwise, very pleased. Thank you.

The GM Carrie is a very unprofessional person. There were serious issues with breakfast supply and she harassed me and others staying there when we asked what could be done to fix this. My kids were burned by the chemicals in TJ hot tub. I had to call to ask for towels almost everyday because after they cleaned and took the dirt towels they didn’t replace with clean ones.

Staff did the best they could to attend us. But the thing is that I do not agree with the property charging for parking $26 a night which I think is ridiculous. We stayed for two nights and originally I agreed to pay for parking for two days because we came long way from the hotel and didn’t want to deal with it, but I ended up canceling one night realizing that there is street parking available. I went multiple times to the front desk and talked to different workers and they assured me that That they took off the extra night from the system, but since I didn’t get anything writing, it it was, he said she said. I also requested one day for room service and clean up, Service only came To give us new towels, but the Room un-cleaned. So on a positive note, the best were pretty comfortable, So on a positive note, the best were pretty comfortable, breakfast in the morning was from 7 to 9 and it wasn’t no big continental breakfast but got the job done. What do we expect right when it’s free breakfast included. Staff Was pretty Courteous. Don’t know if I’ll stay at the best Western again, It gets the job done if you want bang for your buck.
