Everything was great! Staff is very friendly! Quiet. They are doing some construction but they weren’t working out there so it was quiet. I enjoyed my stay! Breakfast was good too! My little one approved.

My husband and I were traveling up to visit family as they were getting Baptized, however I had an unexpected emergency come up and couldn’t make the trip. After speaking with the Manager Dave and Tonya about this they were not helpful. All I was asking if they could approve the cancellation with a refund due to the circumstances and they wouldn’t budge on the request. I spoke with Expedia and they was willing to cancel with refund but had to have approval from the hotel manager. Never will I book with Best Western again.

This whole building is falling apart, so bad that when nobody is moving it sounds like people are moving around. Do not stay here if you like to sleep. You will be listening to the loudest creaks and sounds all night. 1/10

Older property that was renovated. Great staff and breakfast. The room was ok but sticky floors, dust from recent sanding on the wall was not cleaned-up and the blinds were broken the first night but the staff took care of it after. A good value for the price if you are budget minded.
