The service was excellent. Employees are friendly. It was close to my hospital so location was great. Breakfast was really good the coffee not so much. Carlos, Shalani and Rosa in charge of breakfast are all outstanding employees and a great asset to Best Western. The rooms are clean I wish I would have gotten a King instead but the queen was extremely comfortable..

So it’s California I get it however, when you provide a smoking area, you should provide chairs and an ashtray. You wonder when you go 100% zero smoking and don’t give people a place to smoke how people are going to behave. Well, go look at the area that they gathered at ashes and cigarette butts and everything. I’m a person who prays Using smoke. You required me to go to this area and I’m disappointed by that I did what you asked. And you still came up short. I felt almost as if I was I don’t know uncomfortable at least. However, carlos and the staff were amazing human beings. This is a simple problem to fix create a smoking area fools
