Disliked: Staff & service
My main concern was that I spent almost two hours fighting with the internet and at the end I was forced to use my cellular service in order to allow me to watch a movie. When speaking to the front desk, I was told the internet worked fine for him and that I should not have an issue. He said he would reset the internet but it is questionable if he did because it did not work after. My time was cut short having to deal with this issue which made it seem kinda like a waste of my hard earned money which I had spent hoping for some time to relax.

Horrible!

It was absolutely horrible. They didn’t let me check into my room. Hotels.com couldn’t see the reservation and Best Western literally denied me access to the room I paid for. Had to sleep in my car outside the hotel with no blankets or pillows. Very unhappy with both Hotels.com and Best Western for either parties taking responsibility for this.
