Not great
Underwhelming. Expected better based on ratings. Layout of room was good and beds comfortable; however, the amount of hair in shower and drab decor made it feel like an old nasty hotel. Super cheap alternative to staying in Gville on a game weekend but don’tbe surprised by what you get.

Meh Service and Accomodations
Hair in the bathtub and a tooth brush left in shower upon arrival. There was 2 hair pins on the floor next to the bed so the room was obviously not vacuumed prior to my arrival. I was told I could pay cash for my stay on my booking site. But where I attempted to do so, I was told that I could not put a room deposit on my credit card. I was informed that the deposit would have to be in cash because I was paying cash. There was no mention of this on the hotels.com site which is ridiculous. I called Best Western customer service was told that each independent operator can create their own check in rules and that they could do nothing about it. Last time I stay at a Best Western.

The hotel was just okay, the bathroom could have been cleaner. I found a lot of hair in the shower, on the toilet and on the floor. This was an average hotel, but I only needed it for one night. I probably would not stay here again though.
