The stay at this Best Western was quite good for the most part. What put a bit of a sour taste in the mouth was a staff member who stared at us for 30+ minutes while we were trying to enjoy our time in the pool. I believe he was trying to make sure that we would not bring our water bottle in. He asked us to put our water bottle up on the water bottle fountain?! Why do you have a water bottle fountain in your pool area if you do not allow water in your pool area. This was baffling and the staff member staring at us with crossed arms made us very uncomfortable. Also, there was an unhoused person doing drugs inside a stairwell door as I was trying to leave and get to my car. Hotel itself is fine and clean and most of the staff is quite nice but these two things put a damper on the end of my stay.
