Very shabby property. I was embarrassed to stay there. I apologized to my companion about this booking! :( There was a broken closet door. The carpets in the hallway were very worned out. The bathtub was unsafe and slippery. This facility is badly in need of modernization.

We had a nice stay here and it waw very close to where we needed to be. Food in our mini fridge and broken ice makers and drink machines kept us from giving 5☆ reviews across the board.

Worst Western, needs a re do!
The linoleum floor was dirty, the bathtub had rust stains and dripped continuously, the furniture was chipped (chunks missing) and the cloth on the desk chair was covered with some kind of stains like dried smeared food. Although the linens were clean they had a faint smell of bleach. The left side on the bed box mattress must have been broken as it clunked and sunk when you got in and out of it. The heat and cooling unit outflow vent was clogged with unrecognizable dirt which made it not work very well. We have often stayed in Best Western Inns and have been very satisfied but this one was what we would call Worst Western, especially for what we paid for two nights!
