Disappointed with our 3 night stay

We asked that the room be cleaned every day but they never did. We also could not shower at all because the bathtubs were too slippery We asked for a bathmat but we never received one. Aldo, the heater/ air conditioner was broken the whole time and they did not fix it

Ruined birthday trip

I would stay away from booking this property. I am a well seasoned traveler. Have done everything from booking directly to using a 3rd party to having an agent handle my trip. That being said, Best western and hotels.com are in a secret competition to insult my intelligence. First let's start with the property itself before my main gripe. The property is in disrepair and isn't taken care of. Handle missing from the bathroom door, vents dirty and dusty, room dank and musty, front door isn't properly sealed (insects will come in and say hi). Went to check out and there's copious amounts of water pouring from the top floor to the first floor (safety hazard amongst other things). I've seen better cat food than their breakfast and I'd only entertain it if you REALLY don't want to spend the money on something else (Maples is right down the street). I know this is a budget hotel, but this was an embarrassing display. Then they have the audacity to charge me 160+ more than what was shown on hotels.com. I am no stranger to there being things like resort fees being added outside of the booking. This was not the case. They just decided to jack the room rate up one night for twice the amount. Now hotels.com and best western are both pointing at each other. Both parties don't have to worry about me using either of them in the future.

Had to change rooms because A/C was out in first room. However, the staff accommodated and let us switch rooms. For the most part, this hotel was one I would stay at again. It just didn't have all the amenities and highest qualities.

The property is in a decent location and allows for walking to certain attractions. Great Value for our stay. It is a bit dated but overall clean. A few things here and there that could be attended to. Breakfast is great and all the staff we met were nice. Housekeeping was a little hit and miss.Overall satisfied with our stay and would stay again. Yes we did see a ghost!

Great location, well priced but it was definitely a budget hotel. If your budget allows I’d stay somewhere nicer. We had a dog so we’re limited. Don’t park onsite. Cheaper covered parking lots Few blocks away. You don’t need your car in Historic Savanat

Room was ok. Weird bathroom set up with dbl doors. Poor water pressure. Rooms on front of property had a lot of traffic noise. Price of room jumped on Saturday from $100 that we were paying to $350! Definitely not worth that price so we left instead of Staying another day

Furniture and fixtures all in excellent condition. The breakfast was adequate for a hotel service. At check-in the hotel was not ready with 2 adjoining rooms so we were placed in opposite sides of the building. The next day the toilet leaked in one room so we had to relocate but the desk had no recollection of us being together. So we waited a half hour to have the room next door made up. The hotel comped us for a night for the inconvenience

Disliked: Cleanliness

Poor cleanliness

Arrived early--about 1 PM--no rooms available at that time, but asked for a room on top floor when time to check in,--it was noted by desk staff. Returned to hotel at 4:45, and was told only ground level rooms had been cleaned. I refused, and then was told a room was clean and ready on the second floor-no higher. Bathroom was noted to have long dark hair in shower and sink, and on floor--I have military buzz cut of gray hair.--Disgusting!...clearly had not been cleaned!---only positive thing was that it was a short walk to the City Center Market and riverfront areas.
