I booked a king suite for my parents. My mom is in a wheelchair so she needed the extra space. When they checked in, they told her that room was not handicap accessible (even though it stated it was when I booked it) so they switched them into a regular room with double queen beds claiming it was more handicap accessible. It was not. I am extremely disappointed in this service and will not book Best Western again due to the unreliability.

Only hotel I have stayed where you could not split the bill. Was told I could by another staff member and I could do that at check out. Only to check out to no can’t do that except by manager who was not there??? The back door was open around the clock. When I told the desk staff the reply was yes we know reported it 2-3 days ago and don’t know when it will be fixed. Concerning that anyone could walk in Location was great. Loved the sign in elevator that yes it creaks loudly and has been inspected it acts like Patrick Mahomes in The 4th quarter

Breakfast was very good, pretty much what we expected. Room was clean and comfortable. The weather was a little inconsistent outside so when we wanted to warm or cool the room it didn’t take long for adjustments to be felt.

Uncomfortable pillows. Hair in the refrigerator. Leaking and barely attached toilet which required holding down the handle the entire time to flush. Previous guests’ underwear left under the bathroom sink vanity. I’d never stay again.

This was a handicap room. The chair in the shower was dirty. The room had several holes in the walls that had started to be patched. The air conditioning did not work. I had added my son as the person checking in. It was extremely difficult to get him access without being there. I would appreciate a refund

Breakfast was good and my overall experience was excellent. The staff were amazing and very helpful. My only complaint was the sliding barn door for the bathroom. The handle they have is hard to get a grip on to open it back up after it’s closed.
