A very good choice for the price. It's a bit shabby, I could hear my neighbors above, and the shower head didn't work well. Bed was comfortable.

Pubic hairs from the previous guest were all over the shower wall and floor, very obvious and very disgusting. Toilet had a paper protector indicating it had been cleaned but seat had yet another hair on it. Can’t figure out how to post pictures here. For a hundred dollars a night I expected at least a clean room.

Check in was fine. Not really friendly or helpful but fine. Room is big and spacious. Bed seems comfy. Had to call the front desk for help getting the water to work in the bathroom - just had to pull hard enough but didn't want to break anything. Exercise room & pool are nice. Lots of places to eat nearby, right next to the highway. Doesn't seem like a Best Western - one long hallway (2 floors) so real small. Parking is adequate around back of the building.

no hair shampoo in shower room

The room didn't open, so I had to go down three times to get the key, and eventually changed rooms. Even so, the woman at the counter was very kind. Everything was good, but the shampoo bottle was empty when I showered, so I had no choice to use body soap. Other than that, everything was good.

The building is old, but it has been updated and the shower is very nice. However, it was inconvenient because there was no bar soap which i useing and there was a little noise coming from outside. However, overall, it was good.
