It was a disappointment all around

We book d this because of the large tub, it was falling apart. The spout was practically falling out, no good way to close the bottom to keep water in and it would have taken 5 hours to fill because they have added a water flow restrictor. The pool was another plus when choosing and it was closed when we arrived for maintenance. That was frustrating. The only plus was Julie at the front desk was super nice and helpful. She was great.

The room had obvious water damage to the floors throughout and had a strong mildew smell from the time you open the doors. Everything was moist, luckily I was only staying for one night.

Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Hotel room bathroom very clean. Extremely dirty, smelly carpet in room. Dogs allowed in rooms and obviously peed on carpet. Room was extremely damp. This was room 312. Pool water like hot tub water, very uncomfortable. Other Best westerns we stayed at during the trip had cool refreshing pools and really clean, fresh rooms.

The first room I was given ... the key didn't work. After lugging around my "stuff" up and down the elevator twice. I was assigned another room. upon opening the door the smell of urine and mildew was overwhelming! Next room was the same pungent odor! A manager was called and I was given a third room. Better, but not great.

The front desk staff manager was welcoming and friendly. Rooms were clean and quiet, and the bed was comfortable. Lots of nice amenities. I was very pleased with our stay.
