Stay FAR away

Check was a humanless kiosk with a virtual person in Columbia on the computer screen. My techs were very uncomfortable providing ID and credit card through the machine. They asked the front desk "manager" who finally came out to leave the rooms unserviced as they were staying two nights and did not need cleaning. One of the rooms was completely gone through and items strewn all over while they were on a jobsite. When the tech confronted the front desk they had no viable reason to offer. All night long cars come and go and the noise level was extreme. My techs had stayed at this property a few years ago and it was NEVER like this! To be honest, a refund should be offered.

There are many nice places to stay in this town, but this best western is not bad. Its exactly what you think of best western but i found it very clean. You are a walkable distance to the main downtown strip and alot of food options. If not your a 5 min walk to grocery stores and fast food options.

Comfortable stay

Not thrilled with check-in. It is a screen- no human interaction. Frustrated that even after checking in online, I still had to get out credit card to apply their deposit. Should have all been done at once. Their printer ran out of paper and I didn’t get my room number till a human was summoned to help me. Not a fan of this system. Otherwise, all was good. The breakfast attendant is very helpful and friendly.
