The signage finding Best Western was difficult at night. It looks like a humble condo complex…the only way we knew the entrance had to be close was the BW can out front. The rooms were clean though…we heard a few dogs in rooms close by as it is pet friendly. The breakfast was better than expected.

Everything was fine. The light bulbs in the room were a hideously white and bright -like being in a Target. Literally bought a warmer (normal) bulb at the nearby grocery store for the stay.
