No bodywash in the shower. When I asked they knew because they have been put for some time. I was advised in order to have the soap you must ask, then they bring a bar of soap. ?? Batjroom was also not very clean.

The hotel was fine, the staff was friendly and helpful however we waited 10 min. At the front before checking in ( I had to go and look for an employee) though she was helping maintain è and apologized. The first room they gave us smelled like weed, so they gave us another room, and it was much better. I would stay again for a short visit.

I stayed at this Best Western during a busy Parents Weekend and paid a premium rate, but unfortunately, it was a really disappointing stay. I had to switch rooms multiple times due to cleanliness issues—including one room that had soiled sheets. The staff’s response to that was really unhelpful. Overall, not the experience I expected for the price.
