The room was filled with bugs. Not sure if they were all from the light at night, but it was awful. The room smelled like stale smoke.

Uncomfortable beds and ridiculously overpriced

This is a pretty standard Best Western. It's fine if it's all you can get. It beats sleeping in your car, but not by a lot. The thing about Best Western, Motel 6, Red Roof Inn, etc is that they are cheap. Well, this was two hundred dollars for one night. All so I could wake up with a sore neck and back because the bed is one of the worst I've ever experienced.

Nice Place

Location was great. The only problem was the floors in the room were dirty. You need to put a rug at the front door so as not to track dirt into the room. If the outside tiles are wet you track dirt inside. Other than that our stay was great. The outside area is awesome for get togethers. Gazebo with swing and large BBQ grill. Very clean place.
