The beds in both rooms were awful and uncomfortable. The shower in one room had no pressure. Both showers were so hard to turn on. The rooms need better dusting.

For the price, this was probably the best option. Our 1-night stay was good and really appreciate hotels doing their best being open for travelers and providing a clean room. One can see the surrounding area has gone through hard times with vacant buildings and mall. We drove about 15 mins for dinner. When we checked in about 3pm, there were barely any cars, but when we returned from dinner, the parking lot was full, which was reassuring. Overall, 4 out of 5 for value.

Everyone we dealt with at the hotel was very nice. We reserved a handicap room. Unfortunately, the bathroom was not handicap friendly. There was a shower chair and handrails in the shower and next to the toilet. The toilet however is NOT one that someone with a handicap can use easily. It is a regular size toilet and it sits far too low to the ground. This made it very very difficult for my husband to use. He needed help sitting down and getting up each time. We have used this hotel before he sustained his injury. Unfortunately this was probably the last time unless the rooms are upgraded.

This Best Western is a very comfortable hotel, the bed linens are clean and fresh. The bathroom is well stoced with towels, and the shower puts out hot water for a refreshing shower. The micro wave and refrigerator were clean. I did not have an opportunity to enjoy the pool. Thank you for a restful night.
