Front desk had not processed an Expedia Cancellation when we arrived. Had the email where indeed it was cancelled, front desk clerk had to call her manager to get approval to make the cancellation. Then she finally checked us into our rooms. This was the first time at a Best Western, will be really hard pressed to book again.

Best part was it didn't have unnecessary lights and windows that kept you from sleeping and the water pressure and shower head for my husband was to die for .

My room was not cleaned each day. The young lady didn't speak English so we used a translator, no problem. I asked that the sheets be charged as it was a 5 night stay. She responded ok, but same sheets each night. Towels were replaced, small trash cans emptied. I've seen better. The breakfast was decent, however the tangerines looked old. Over all a 6 scale of 1-10.
