Registration knew I was disabled with a service dog but did not tell me I had to go up flights of stairs due to no elevator. Bed had plastic encasement and sheet would not stay on so we were sleeping on plastic. NOT GOOD. Also, the only option on TV was Direct TV. Remote barely worked and TV froze up when it rained.

A very nice BW

This is a very nice Best Western and right off the freeway. I was traveling with a dog and loved that the ground floor rooms had exterior doors. Made for easy access to outside and super easy loading in of all our paraphernalia. The area is a little weird: across the street from a gas station where long haul trucks apparently rest. Took the dog for a walk down the road where there's a huge cow pasture on one side and a small mobile home park on the other. The street was surprisingly littered. Too bad, it was kind of a pleasant walk otherwise. But the hotel itself is perfectly nice and there are lots of Door Dash options for food. Breakfast was typical.

It was ok......

It was fine. We were put in a handicap room for some reason so the vanity was really low etc. Hotel seems dated. Smelled like maybe the pool when we went in but found the pool is outside. Strange. The ice machine/laundry room smelled like sewer. Bed was comfortable.

Great stay!!

Big room with amenities...liked having both an inside and an outside door. Awesome breakfast buffet, one of the best I have seen!! The indoor pool is small. Also there is a truck stop next door so if you are a light sleeper you may ask to be on the other side of the hotel. The staff was very friendly!!
