Literally the worst hotel room I’ve ever stayed at in my travelling life. I’ve stayed at some poor hotels while travelling but this one tops the lot. Strong smell of cigarette smoke in the room. A terrible smell in the room that can only be described as cat wee, gab and go breakfast terrible. And it’s $118 a night. Madness. Wall stinking, floors stinking, bathroom stinking. Luckily I was travelling on my own. If I was with my misses I think she would’ve walked out.

The hotel was clearly run down and in a rough part of town. The pool was not open, and the parking lot was dirty. Our room was clean except for two insects in our bathroom. On a positive note, the staff were friendly and helpful. We checked in early, and the staff cleaned our room quickly to let us in.

Entire hotel area and room were filthy. Bathtub faucet did not work...therefore no shower could be taken. For the price charged, I could have stayed at a much nicer facility. Only went there because it advertised as a Best Western Hotel affiliated hotel. Not even close. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND YOUR TRIP. DON'T GO THERE.

Called in advance and spoke to co-owner at midnight. Told her I needed nice room with working phone. My son had emergency situation in SF and I NEEDED to help resolve via 6-7 phone calls. Co-owner was nice, but annoyed at my question. She said "All rooms have phones - OK? ...But are they working phones? Entered ground floor room. Lots of wasted people hanging out in front of my door. I said "excuse me" to get in door and was stared down. 6-7 people moved from my door, grabbed their bikes and entered room next door. 1st thing I noticed - no proper lock on front door. Went to shower - no lock on bath large window. Had to jam a hanger to close & secure large window. After shower, went to use phone. It didn't work. Wanted to alert Front Office, but phone didn't work. Opened the door to go to office, but was afraid of people standing outside my door. I had to move a large desk to behind the door since there was no lock. In the morning, I alerted the owner. Told him phone was SOLE reason for taking the $185 room. No discount. I had to beg to use the office phone. Thankfully, he allowed me 2 calls. No breakfast was available. I had to plead with him to give me 10 extra minutes to check out. My ride was coming to get me. Only bright spot was cleaning manager Danita and her 2 nice kids who tried their best to help me, and showed genuine concern for my predicament.

Service is very poor. They offer a grap and go breakfast which is ham sandwich and granola bar. Got a knock on the door at 6am stating we can not use the bathroom sink because it was flooding the room below us. There was no hot water to take a shower and no internet. I asked the front desk guy and have the manager call me. His response was....I can take your number but he won't call you. I asked for the corporate phone number and he refused to give it to me and said to look it up online. I did look it up, I did call them and complained. Hopefully Best Western will get involved and do something about the people that run this hotel.
