This is an older style of Best Western BUT it is super clean and nice! Everything is kept nice and clean. Indoor pool, restaurant and bar on sight. Rarely do I see a person walking around and cleaning areas in the hotel at night but I saw one tonight!! Bed was comfy. Definitely would pick this property again! Class act and kudos to this property manager!!!

Our AC went out during the night and we had to be switched to a different room. Breakfast was not as good as the Best Western in Garden City.

The property was clean and well maintained, nothing broke, and the staff was very friendly. The parking lot was not full of potholes like so many motels are these days and the beds were clean and comfortable. “Performing” is how I would grade this business and that’s really exceptional these days! This is how a business should be ran. BUT....the price was ridiculously high. I have stayed at the nicest luxury hotels in downtown Dallas, San Antonio and Austin that we’re cheaper than this place! After taxes we paid $213 for a plain Jane room with 2 queen beds. Why should a person pay extra just because a business is only doing their job? I didn’t have an attendant park my car or a porter carry my luggage to my room. Come on!!
