I can’t remember her name but I saw her nametag and said manager, great sense of hospitality, she gave great advice to visit in the area and was honest about some spots that are overrated. I always appreciate a sincere recommendation!

We arrived about two hours early and were informed that we could pay $35 to check in early. I understand if there are no rooms available but if there are rooms, why charge someone already paying a full rate to access a room that’s sitting idle? Our hotel in Victoria happily gave us access a few hours early with no charge, since the room was ready.

Room was fantastic - separate room with spa bath. Hotel is tastefully decorated and relatively new. Check in staff member was brilliant, staff were a little aloof after that (although breakfast staff worked very hard). Breakfast was good although a little chaotic when busy. Location is ideal for shopping/eating options but quite inaugural. Very near motorway. Highly recommended for a stopover option.

Really good hotel with good breakfasts. Hotel is ideally situated for eating, drinking options and access to motorway but the location is a little industrial. Check in staff were brilliant but the rest of the staff were a little aloof after that. Breakfast was good but a little chaotic if busy. If you are looking for a comfortable stopover when travelling then this is an excellent option.

This property is clean and the beds very comfortable. However, the lighting in the rooms is in dire need of updating ! Also, this is the only Best Western I have ever stayed in that does not have an all day coffee station for guests. I like a coffee in the afternoon and has no option but to leave the property or drink the packaged stuff and fake creamer in my room. And, I am a Best Western Platinum member and was denied a later checkout ( 30 minutes) as the front desk person told me the hotel was full. I checked with a different desk member upon checking out and she assured me it was not full for that day. Not the biggest problems in life, but for the cost I expect better.
