Staff did the best they could to attend us. But the thing is that I do not agree with the property charging for parking $26 a night which I think is ridiculous. We stayed for two nights and originally I agreed to pay for parking for two days because we came long way from the hotel and didn’t want to deal with it, but I ended up canceling one night realizing that there is street parking available. I went multiple times to the front desk and talked to different workers and they assured me that That they took off the extra night from the system, but since I didn’t get anything writing, it it was, he said she said. I also requested one day for room service and clean up, Service only came To give us new towels, but the Room un-cleaned. So on a positive note, the best were pretty comfortable, So on a positive note, the best were pretty comfortable, breakfast in the morning was from 7 to 9 and it wasn’t no big continental breakfast but got the job done. What do we expect right when it’s free breakfast included. Staff Was pretty Courteous. Don’t know if I’ll stay at the best Western again, It gets the job done if you want bang for your buck.

We discovered a bed bug infestation during our stay. While the staff promptly moved us to another room, the situation was very concerning, as we could have unknowingly slept in the infested bed. I also reached out to management by email but have not received any response. I hope this issue is addressed seriously to ensure future guests do not encounter the same problem.

The staff was rude. Threatening to kick us out over a parking question. Breakfast was supposed be includes but it was missed a few days and same food the whole time. Couldn’t eat most of it. Poor food quality. The place smelled like smoke. The gym was only a bike. Parking was extra $20 a day. Weed smoke everywhere. Not a place for kids.

Our room was next to the highway, be sure and ask before you book!! The only solution they offered was ear plugs to help with the noise… the ac in our room didn’t work properly, the cable and internet were also not working. Because the hotel was at max capacity for MCSD Graduation (also the reason for our stay) the hotel offered nothing to offset the discomforts experienced. Definitely will not be returning!!

Property was great. Our mini fridge didn’t work but they quickly fixed it. Our only complaint was they don’t own their parking lot so you had to pay 20 a night or park on the street if you could find parking but with an infant that wasn’t an option for us.
