It was just OK for a one night stay.
Sleepless night, it was too noisy with students screaming, running in the corridors, etc.

I would like to mention that the hotel should be more careful to who they rent their rooms to, as it makes it very unpleasant for the ones who enjoy a quite time away from home and come to a noisy environment. ...read more

Low cost & supplied breakfast.

Always find this chain value for money. No bad surprises, always clean.

The location is convenient, the staff very friendly, and the room was pleasant.
The room wasn't as clean as the last visit, and the stairwells are not very secure.

I like the hotel, the staff is very friendly, the complimentary breakfast is very good. The pool is very nice, but lighting is a little poor, and the water must be cleaned using a saltwater system because it was "salty", didn't like that. The bathroom was not as clean as the last visit. I usually base my stay on cleanliness over anything else, so this was dissapointing. Overall, the stay was comfortable, and the price equitable. ...read more

The hotel was disgusting

This hotel was disgusting. The pool was filthy, it had mold and grime in, out and around it. The actual hotel room was dirty. The shower curtain had mold on it and we had to take a shower with flip flops on. The beds were very little. i threw the comforters on the floor because they were filthy. There were bugs around the door frame. I will never stay at another best western again! ...read more
