Comfortable and clean

This hotel was very nice with everything you would expect from Best Western. We had a suite that was roomy enough for the 4 of us to spread out. The bed was super comfy with clean linens and extra pillows. We used the pool, hot tub, and fitness room that were all on par with the brand. Breakfast had the usual hot and cold options. There was a dairy alternative milk available which is extra selfishly for us traveling with food allergies.
