It's a decent property considering the options in the area. Our room was larger with a kitchenette and we enjoyed the food at the restaurant.

The front desk staff was so rude to us at check-in that we didn't feel comfortable enough to stay. When I told the woman at the desk that I might prefer going elsewhere because I felt so unwelcome there, her response was, "fine with me." The worst customer service experience I've ever had, will never return. We changed our booking to the Comfort Inn up the street where we were greeted with a smile and an offer to check in early. No question which chain I will prefer to give my money to in the future.

I want to assure you that this incident will be reviewed and that this property will continue to offer great customer service in the future. We can only hope that this one experience will not have you turn your back on this brand permanently. Thank you for ensuring we received this feedback and could address these concerns.

Great Stay!
I had a great experience with front desk when I checked in and then I went to dinner in the restaurant there where the service was impeccable. The kitchen was a bit slow in getting food out but when it came, it was fresh and delicious. I used the gym the next morning and it was clean and had fresh towels there to be used. It might be a bit more money than some of the other hotels in town, but well worth it.

It was $400 a night. No Best Western is worth that - and it wasn't even the best Best Western I've been too. Not returning.
