Outlets didn’t work in room, mini fridge was actually a freezer, causing food and drinks to freeze and cans to explode. Breakfast was awful, wet sausages and watery eggs, rubbery waffles. Hotel does not have daily housekeeping. Only given 2 towels at a time. Incredibly thin walls, heard every door open and close and conversations through the wall. Front desk checked me in under a different reservation, charged a different reservation amount. I was told that only a manager can refund and there was no manager on property. Overall a very disappointing stay and I would not recommend customers stay here either.

My family and I checked in on a Friday night. The air conditioner was not working in the room. I called the front desk to ask the lady who check if someone could come and check the air. We waited 20 minutes, no one ever came. I called back to the front desk and the lady said she was checking people in and could come as soon as she had a break. We waited 2 hours for someone to come. No one came, I asked if we could switch to another room. She stated there were no other rooms available. I asked for a refund she said she couldn’t give a refund. She called her manager who refused to speak to me on the phone and said he wouldn’t be able to give a refund until the next day. The lady at the front desk said a room would be available the next day and they could move us or have someone look at the air. We stayed only because there weren’t any other available hotels in Lake Charles due to a large Volleyball Tournament, which we were also in town for. We were never moved to another room, no one ever called or came to fix the air the next day. This is the worst customer service I have ever experienced in my life! No one wants to travel and have to experience the things that we experience staying at Best Western. I finally got to speak to the manager 3 days after we checked out! He was rude, unapologetic, and offered a free upgrade on our next stay! I would NEVER stay at that hotel again! Save yourself the this trouble and hassle, choose a better hotel.

It took 30 minutes to check in, only one person at desk after second one walked off with four people in line. Only one person for front desk and breakfast area on Sunday morning, so everything running out and no one available to refill.

Great Hotel

Great hotel. Great service. Great beds. Although we did ask for an accessible room with a shower seat and did not get one. We were told the room had one but did not. Also, the fridge was not cold. Other than that the hotel was nice. The girl that checked us in was very nice too.
