Deborah

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room was very clean, bed and pillows comfortable. The reason I gave only four stars was that I had requested a ground floor room with two beds and when we got to the room it was one bed. I also had called earlier in the day to let them know we would be a late arrival 7:30pm. I went back to front desk and the only room they had left was on the second floor which we took even though my sister and I had trouble carrying our luggage upstairs, hence the request for ground floor. They gave us another room but when we arrived the key would not open the door - so back to front desk again. I asked if I would be given a discount for all the trouble checking in but was told no. Anyway 3rd time was a charm and the room was very nice and comfortable. Breakfast was good.

Good and Bad!

While the location of this Best Western is close to a number of things, getting into and out of the hotel parking lot can be challenging due to traffic and stop lights. The heavy congestion of traffic can be frustrating. The parking lot needs some attention (repaving and restriping of lines as well as improving the exterior look (new landscaping and fresh paint) would enhance the appearance. The location and activities of the Moose Lodge in back of the hotel is a negative (noise). The breakfast buffet is a plus in staying here!

Great shower

Very good value. The hotel is conveniently located and all the other hotels cost more. I checked out later than the other guests but there was still lots of hot water for a very refreshing shower before I checked out.
