Room had multiple lights not working properly. Staff was overall friendly but continued on their own conversations and attended to me in the downtime. Breakfast ends at 9AM on weekends which is relatively early.

It was my first time staying at a Best Western. While the staff was very friendly our bathroom left a lot to be desired. The last guest had left her garments hanging on the back of the bathroom door, our tub consistently filled up with water while showering, and there was hair on the blow dryer. We were only in town for a short stay for a concert, but definitely expected a better condition for the room. The staff was very plesent and had offered to retrieve the garments. The hotel was all booked and we didn't have another option for another room. While not the worst experience, it could have been better.

Terrible

Check in took 40+ mins because they had trouble finding a “clean” open room, even though the hotel was not at capacity and we had already paid. Another guest was given a key to our room and tried to get in while we were sleeping. Fire alarm went off for 30 mins at 1am for no apparent reason. Our “non smoking” room had cigarette butts sitting next to the window, all the surfaces were dirty and sticky, and there were small curly hairs all over the bathroom and bathroom towels. Stains on the sheets, walls, curtains and floors. Baseboards were filthy and peeling away from the walls. Key card only worked at certain entrances. Garbage and terrible smells in all the stairwells. Only left 2 stars and not 1 because the woman checking us in was nice and apologetic about the lengthy check in time.
