Positives: 1. Allowed early checkin. 2. Room recently renovated and clean. 3. Good location, close to English bay. Negatives: 1. Some construction in hotel and adjacent buildings outside, with elevators out of service. Future recommendations: 1. Include free breakfast, similar to most other Best Western express.

Hotel had options for our family of 6 which was nice. Parking was awesome to have on the property as i could park my super tall van. Rooms are updated nicely, but everything else is not. HVAC is ancient and so is the elevator. No breakfast included, and tiny lobby and has a "motel feel" rather than a hotel
