Great Breakfast and Staff

The breakfast was very good. The lady working the breakfast area was extra super nice and accommodating. She made sure everyone had what they requested, kept the food areas refilled, kept the tables clean, and even brought e a bottle of water when I was checking out. My room was clean, but the carpet is old and not as clean. The bathtub didn't drain. The in room coffee machine was clean and stocked with good coffee. Overall, my stay was enjoyable and I will stay there again.

2/10 Poor

Not your normal best western

We were passing through on our way home and it was late. I could barely hold my eyes open, we were extremely tired. It was just myself and my daughter. There were Bugs in room so we left early. Literally in the room less than 5 hours. Then noticed that they charged my card an extra $25 for torn sheets which is absurd.
