Loved the room, the room was laid out very nicely. When I walked in I said to myself Wow, this is nice so much better than the four other hotels I stayed at. Love that the room had extra flat open surfaces for my stuff. Bed was very comfortable. Only negative was the pool was out of order, we could use the pool next door but I didn't go over there.

I selected this property because they offer exclusive, free EV charging. The evening before I was to check out I intended to charge my car overnight for the drive home. I had returned to the hotel late and two non-EVs occupied the spaces, so I wasn’t able to charge. I had to go to a commercial charger and spent over $30. When I asked the night staff to have one of the vehicles removed they refused! Apparently inconveniencing me was a ok, but removing the parking violators was a bridge too far. I won’t be back.

Perfectly clean all around. TOO frugal with soap, shampoo and lotion. Please do something about that. Missing light bulb in lamp. Needs blacking curtains or something to darken room. Needs better coffee. Hardest bed that I have ever tried to sleep on. If these problems are addressed properly you will have the best place away from home that I can remember. Oh- the bathroom needs a sink and refuse basket.

NEVER AGAIN

Where do I begin? I promised myself 20 years ago to never patronize a Best Western ever again after a nightmare experience. Unfortunately it was the only hotel available in the area for my son's graduation from Purdue. I reluctantly booked the overpriced room out of desperation. When I arrived, there was a friendly note advising the front desk staff stepped away. Come to find out the front desk staff was on perpetual smoke breaks. When she greeted me I was offered a room on the first or second floor so I chose the first. Not sure if that was a mistake because the room was dirty, a light out, and had an odor. There was no remote for the TV so I had to go the front desk but eventually called the number on the sign to get her attention. She was able to provide us with a remote. Since it was nice outside, I asked where the outdoor seating was they showed in the online photos and was told the gazebo is behind the dumpster. I hesitantly went to the area which I had to exit through the door leading to the staff's smoking area with a sign stating 'out of order' and propped open with a door stop. When I found the seating area, the chairs and tables were in disarray and I was actually afraid to sit since nobody was around, except a bunny. The experience solidified my opinion of Best Western hotels. They are the WORST! There's no excuse for the lack of maintenance and housekeeping. What a shame since it's in a nice area. All I have to say is, NEVER AGAIN!!

the mattress is way too soft; and with this amount of money, can book somewhere better; it's just like any old motels you could get along freeways, but this one is way overpriced

Dirty!!!

Very dirty. The room had not been cleaned for a while. Everything was covered in dust. The floor in the bathroom was covered in the previous guests hair… almost everything was broken. The faucet came off the sink. The ring around the drain came off. Even the security bar for the door fell off! Not worth the money at all. Don’t waste money here. Also had mold spots on the curtains.. what looked like blood stains on the bedding!
