Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I paid for a king sized bed, microwave and refrigerator ( as advertised in the title). I did not get what I paid for since the refrigerator was missing. I called the hotel staff and she told me she couldn't move me because rooms were full. Then I contacted Expedia and instead of getting me a full refund. I got an amenity refund even though my receipt said King Size Bed, Microwave and Refrigerator. I will be taking my business elsewhere and telling all of my family and friends about this experience.

No towels in room. Breakfast late; no plates and no cups for hot coffee. Juice machine not working. Overall the facility is very attractive, but the management of this Best Western leaves much to be desired. I have had very good experiences at other Best Westerns, and will continue to consider Best Western in future travel plans, however, I will never stay at this facility again. Best Western Corporate leadership needs to thoroughly review the management of this facility. Recommend a “secret traveler” or equivalent, to obtain effective insight into what travelers experience at this facility.

Be Warned
“Get what you pay for”, well in this case not even that. Room we booked was unavailable, so settled for a room without sofa bed. No towels in the room, only got three total towels for a family of four and one was floor towel. Every trash can in the compound was full so guest are leaving trash on tables. Hotels.com customer rep couldn’t provide solution for room downgrade at the hotel. This just the short version, way more to mention….
