Revolving Door

It was all good , except a fire door on left side of building, facing it. Was always being pushed open a little to let anybody in. Which means security was low. Right beside door,a sign said, KEEP FIRE DOOR CLOSED. but every time I went by it, it was pushed open a little bit. And I would slam it SHUT. I'm thinking, workers, letting someone in to swim or free room. Needs to be checked so door stay SHUT. Anyone stays here, and go by a fire door, shut it tight for more security.

The staff was professional and friendly at check in. The bathroom has mold spots on the walls and ceiling. Certain areas in the common area have bug splatter on the walls. I loved that the mattress was encased! That’s huge considering the easy spread of bugs when mattresses do not receive preventative measures. Although, it was not the most comfortable mattress to sleep on. The shampoo and conditioner were crappy and cheap. The body soap left our skin feeling really dry and sticky. I would highly suggest an upgrade. The room smelled great and was clean when we arrived. WiFi and tv worked. No issues with keycards. Cleanliness of the entrance to the hotel itself was clean and look good as well. But the rooms definitely needs some extra attention and additional renovations/ upgrades

Very neat, and courteous service. I'd stay again. Only thing that wasn't great was that linens, while very clean, felt more synthetic than natural.

I checked in, took all my bags to my room. IMMEDIATELY I noticed the room smelled awful, I looked past it and moved on. I then noticed the tub had grey sludge in it around the drain??? Once again....moved on. Finally I noticed my one night Stand was completely broken and replaced with a foot rest? At this point I called the front desk politely explaining the situation and requesting a new room..my room was changed to a room where the only improvement was I had two nightstands . The room still smelled awful and the shower was stained brown INCLUDING stains on the shower curtain. In addition to being wildly uncomfortable my entire stay given the condition of both rooms give ...my key stopped working half way through my trip so I had to walk through the rain to the front desk and get a replacement.

It has been recently updated and by that I mean they polished a turd, much like a lot of the other Best Westerns. I think it might just be a Pennsylvania thing though as the whole state is pretty outdated. Was everything functional, yes, and I think they mean well but it’s no Holiday inn. They all smell like curry.

They say it was recently renovated but there is mold in the bathroom tub. The room smelled like mold found when the ac is on it leaks onto the carpet. For the price we are charged very disappointed with the condition. Will never stay at a best western again especially this one.

Not a great place. But doable in a pinch.

He checked in late (10:15). Receptionist was on the couch and was interrupted. Checked in, she gave me 1 key, no instructions on parking. Turns out parking is 95% in the rear of the building. I gave the key to the family helped offload luggage then went to park the car. Drove around the building found a spot on the rear and discovered you need a key to enter. It’s about 50 feet from the reception I knocked but she wouldn’t come. I had to call my daughter to come and slip the key through the door crack to open the door from the outside otherwise it is a few hundred yards to walk around back to the front door. The room, mostly clean a few hairs in the bathroom but no shower curtain. I assume it was by design. There was a lot of water that soaked. We used a lot of towels trying g to dry the floors. Not a great place. But doable in a pinch.
