The property was misrepresented. Received numerous emails that breakfast was provided as cook to order - when we got there were informed that it was just a basic buffet. The staff were aware that info on website was incorrect but were not able to change it. Pool was supposed to be heated and it was not. Informed we were "safe" walking towards the downtown but do not go the other way. The floors were not carpeted and were not clean - feet got extremely dirty walking on them. Most of staff was very good and professional.

Pros: Staff nice and helpful; Good breakfast. Room fine. Nice to have lights mirror in bathroom since rooms tend to be dark rooom. Cons: Way too expensve for the property.This is obviously an old property that was run down and they are working to upgrade it, but it still looks old and warn from the outside. The shower area could be a lot cleaner! You can hear the train from the room, and it runs during the night.

Best Western discontinued the homemade breakfast in the next door restaurant that was one of the main attractions of this place. They replaced it with the traditional institutionalized motel breakfast of canned fruits an powdered eggs. It was terrible. My Jacuzzi was broken and they never fixed it. The sign at the entrance was broken an d the entrance to the motel was dark and dangerous. It was also never fixed. I have been coming here for a decade during The Gem and Mineral show. I will never come back. The owners obviously don't care.
