Double booking
I was very disappointed and not sure who to be disappointed with. When I arrived at the hotel it took them 30 mins to check me in and then I was told that my room had been double booked. I don't know if the error is on the part of [...]or the Best Western but after they told me they had double booked my room they told me in the future I need to call the hotel and make sure that doesn't happen when I book with your company. They also offered me a suite but had the nerve to charge me extra for it when I had made my reservation early and the error was not on my part. I don't not feel that I should have to contact the hotel before my arrival. That is why I use companies like [...]and pay MUCH more than the true value of the room. Because I do NOT want to have to take the extra effort. This leads me to my last point. I used [...]to obtain a good deal on my room but payed 117 for a room through [...]that would have cost me 87 if I would have gone directly through their website.

This is one to pass by.
My husband and I went to Shreveport for our granddaughters birthday. When we got to the room, there was no soap and when I asked one of the cleaning ladies for some, she stated there was none available and it had been ordered but she would get some from another room. The elevator was extremely slow and around 6:00 AM the people next door were so loud we were unable to sleep. I called and requested the management to call and see if they could be quieter but to no avail. This went on for about 45 minutes.

Alot to be desired
We arrived late around 11::00pm None of the Ice makes worked in the entire hotel (three). The bed was sticky and nasty just felt dirty. The room smelled. Signs everywhere said not responsible for break ins. That should tell you something. I will never stay here again. The one positive was the free breakfast was very good.

Customer Service vs. Disgusting Place
We stayed there because it was close to the Convention Center (for Cheerleading Competition). Customer service was great, the staff was great. However, the rooms lacked everything. It was nothing like the pictures. There was gum on our headboard, floors were gross, room smelled bad, it was in need of serious updating and the room was so drafty and cold that the super dry heater wouldn't shut off. There was no happy medium at all. Needless to say, I got sick from it. Our trip 2 weeks ago to the same city at another hotel was much better and for the same price.
