The staff at check-in was friendly, but the rooms were extremely dirty. They are carpet rooms and you can tell they never run the vacuum cleaner. The hotel needs a deep cleaning. I never expected a Best Western to be in this poor shape.

This place was a dump. People outside partying in parking lot until 10:30. Towels were small and thin. And a"t 6;00am they "accidentally " turned off our air. Check in staff was nice that is all I can that was good about this place. Mold in shower. Door jam looked like it had been kicked into before. Not a good place

An old facility, and maintained only to make it mediocre. I was tired so I slept for two hours between 3 pm and 5 pm. Then I made a reservation for that same night in Bloomington and moved on. This property should be avoided.

Went here with the intention of staying two days for a business trip with my partner and we were disgusted with this hotel. The room smelled like wet towels, the area is creepy with little to no transportation available. Staff is not really helpful as they don’t know anything really about the hotel or the area. We ended up staying only one night and had to wait two hours for transportation. Wouldn’t recommend.
