JANET, Franktown

We booked the Best Western thinking it would be similar to other Best Westerns. Nope. They only had 2nd story rooms with no elevators. My 90 year old husband cannot do stairs. So we were left on the street with no place to stay, as well as having to pay for 2 nights when we could not get into a room. A horrible experience, with no concern from the manager.

When we booked this “Best Western”, we wrongly assumed it would have similar amenities to all other Best Westerns. When we arrived to check in, were told there were no rooms available on the first floor and that there was no elevator. My 90 year old husband cannot climb stairs. So we were left on the street with no room, but were charged the $300 due to the non-refundable policy. Pretty shocking for us old folks. No more Best Westerns for us 😣

I booked this place quickly the morning of because we were in Canada and I had limited cellphone service. I trusted the name of Best Western without reading reviews which was a mistake I won’t make again. The staff was friendly but the rooms were old and dirty. I booked here to save some money but I regretted it the moment we stepped foot into the room. The bathroom looked gross, we decided to skip showers. My sheets were dirty, brown stains on the comforter. I slept in my clothes and used no covers. We felt uncomfortable the entire night and barely slept. The walls were paper thin and you could hear the guests upstairs as well. There was a glass sliding door that led to a shared patio that connected to the other rooms outside which housed long term residents as we could see them right outside our door. The room had an adjoining door on both sides of the room. I cannot recommend staying here. Spend the money to be comfortable.

I think they’re going through a remodel or recently became a Best Western. We had three rooms and all smelled like cigarettes. Also air didn’t work well and rooms were warm. A lot of the rooms seemed to be getting redone and it was a little loud. My bathroom shower had nothing to put the soap and shampoo on except the ground.

Someone had smoked in the room. It was missing a nightstand lamp. Furniture and decorations beat up. Patched and warped tub surround. The a/c unit was loud and the clean filter light was on. This place needs some maintenance. Louis at front desk was nice. I will avoid Best Westerns from now on. Dennis

first room had only one bed when reservation was for 2beds. this was hotels .com/expedia error when front desk person showed me their referral screen. The gentleman kindly offered me a second room which also only had one bed because that's the only thing he had available but we at least had a pull out couch. went to pull the couch out and it was very difficult to do so and upon finally getting it open there were literally blood stained sheets I had to go back to the front desk again and we were given a third room. The gentleman at the front desk was accommodating but situation was a little unnerving. We would've just change to go elsewhere but this was a nonrefundable room and it was nearly 10 o'clock at night after a 6 hour drive.
