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.

The breakfast was good but the pancakes were a little hard, but overall good. The service was also good, when ever I needed fresh towels i didn't have to wait they'd bring then straight up. I really liked the stay.

Very welcoming upon arrival the lady who checked us in was amazing, but the TVs kept turning off because of wiring (management stated), the toilets then kept getting clogged , then the rain caused a leak in the window seal manager then forgot about us, after promising us to move rooms also offered a discount from the car but upon check out said the notes didn't state that but management wasn't on property during our check out time
