Great location near medical district. Great price. Has free hot breakfast and a gym. Secured parking lot and secured entry. Room is good size. There are 5 floors. You will love it here. Within walking distance to Beale Street. It was a last minute stay and a good choice for the price.

Our TV never worked the entire time we were there. They literally were manually rebooting their router and still the TV wasn’t working. Just seems unprofessional for a hotel to not have better Wi-Fi service. Also, when we arrive to our room, the door was wide open. It had us questioning, We’re wearing the right spot?

Clean and spacious rooms

I love a good Best Western stay because the rooms are always clean, the building is generally quiet, and the breakfast is good. This was no exception. The room was bigger than I expected, and super clean. Plenty of outlets and the staff was super friendly and fast. I'm only giving 4 stars instead of 5 because the toilet handle slipped off the chain a few hours before check out and I couldn't get it back on, but I'm sure if I had mentioned it, it would have been fixed quickly. Overall, I highly recommend. The neighborhood might give you pause, and maybe the outside could use some sprucing up, but this is a good hotel, and the omelets were on point.

The best aspect of my stay was the staff, especially TJ. From check-in to check-out, TJ was extremely helpful. He was able to answer any questions we had about the area, places to dine and things to do during our stay. Any issue's we had in our room, TJ was able to correct and did so with a pleasant attitude and a smile.

The room was out dated the table and chair were old and rusted the toilet ran throughout the night none of the sockets next to the beds work. I called down to the front desk and was told that there is no maintenance guy on the property and they wouldn’t be able to fix the issue until Tuesday the nerve of them to ask for $100 incidental deposit on a room where they have people outside begging for change.
