Disliked: Room comfort
This is an old hotel , our room did not have a window , but.a Glass sliding door opening to a hallway overlooking the pool. Very poorly designed. When one books a room with an established hotel chain , one expects a certain standard …..reflected in the price ….We will never stay at a Best Western again , , the last one we stayed at on this trip was in Sudbury Ontario , old and musty , refrigerator did not work . , and once again overpriced.

The staff was great. Remarkably Quiet for being so close to the road.. Comfy bed. It's a decent place to stay. It's not new and you can hear creaking from people walking around above you. This was only minor. Loved the proximity to anywhere/everywhere! It is 'Right on the River'.
