Booked a last minute reservation due to some work being done at the house. The website said there was a hot tub. When we arrived, we were informed it was not working. This should have been listed on the website. I would not have booked

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was a very unclean black mold on the floors in the bathroom all along the edges of the wall along the edge of the tub completely. Unsanitary advertising that a hot tub and pool is available. Neither one was breakfast was okay. The only good thing about this stay was the gentleman working the front desk by the name of Thaddeus. We actually ended up leaving this hotel a night early and just eating our booking that we paid for. Due to being so unhappy in and on sanitary place. This will not be a place that we go back to in future visits to home. Really upsetting a lot of the times. Best Western pluses are good alternative to expensive hotels, but this one just didn't serve its purpose for us other than a warm, dry place to sleep
