Dont stay here.

Bathroom was clean. However the shower needs to be replaced. The bottom slopes downward toward the middle on both sides and all 3 of us in this room almost fell while showering. Also, the bath and hand towels had a sour smell. We had to ask for sheets, blanket for sofa sleeper. The blanket had a musty smell. The sofa sleeper couch was dirty, and when we opened it up the mattress had springs sticking out and had rust spots all over it. The room is very old looking, in desperate need of an up grade. On a whole the hotel smelt like people oke weed in it alot.

Do not recommend!

Probably one of the worst Best Westerns I have ever stayed at. My family of four rented a king suite With pull out sofa bed. #1 there was no bed covering for the pullout couch. Had had to ask and they only had two fitted sheet . Front desk said she would have to ask a manager about getting a cover. I also asked for two pillows because there were no extras in their room. The manager told me that they don't provide Extra pillows. Even after explaining that we booked a room for four adults,,( in our case, )it was two adults, two children. After having to ask again She finally allowed us to have two more pills for my children. And she stated that it was best western policy I know this not to be true because we've never had a hard time getting extra bed covering. #2 The room was in desperate need of a makeover Had sheet rock mud visible throughout the ceiling. Had tiny little holes all throughout the ceiling. #3 There were people outside the doorway of the entrance(side entrance) smoking pot and you could smell it throughout the hallway. And nothing was done about it.
