Hot tub was super small and not very hot. There was a mouse in our room, which freaked us out. Other than that, the condition of the room and motel were fine. About what you'd expect for a Best Western. The free breakfast was decent.

Started promising ended up disappointing

The check in staff was helpful and very friendly. It was disappointing, however that the pool was too full of bugs and hadn’t been clean to even use. A pool was one of the reasons we selected this hotel. I in addition, the fire alarm in the room was chirping all night from either a low battery or dirty connections. The front desk staff was unable to get anyone to fix it for us, and we couldn’t reach it. Sadly, they were unable to do anything, but give a few extra best western points for losing an entire night sleep. Very disappointing! Yeah

We like the location of the property. We did had an issue with the TV and Maintenance was sent to fix it. The tub was draining really slow so water would built up when you are taking a shower. We were there for one night and Maintenance said they would fix it. Otherwise staff was great, breakfast was really good as well.

Great Place!!

This is in a great area. It’s an older property-bathrooms old, but for the price it’s clean and the breakfast is a great addition. Everyone is very nice and helpful. Great location. You can walk to downtown. I would definitely stay here again!!
