Pass on this One
The woman at the front desk at check in is super nice. The breakfast is very good. That is where the positive ends. -I stayed in room 102. It had a very musty smell and there was mold on the curtains. -The lawn crew for the hotel was out BEFORE 8am working. Why would you do that where people come to sleep? Do you not want people to sleep when they are paying you for a bed? -While my niece was still sleeping, BEFORE checkout, housekeeping came and woke her up. Why isn't it policy to leave people alone before checkout time?? I’m sure there were plenty of rooms to clean that had already dropped off their key cards. Again, do you not want people to sleep when they are paying you for a bed?

Not what I paid for...
Best Western When arrived, told that ground floor flooded, then they have no elevator. Husband has heart condition so couldn't do stairs. Then they sent us next door to Sleep Inn, had to walk a little distance. No king bed as I paid for, very small room. Not comfortable at all.

Disappointed
The front desk gal was lovely & professional. We were extremely disappointed that no where on the booking sight said the pool was out of service & the room , while it was clean, smelled moldy & stale. I won’t be a return guest.

Surprise Pet Fee/ Roach Infestation
The sink outside the toilet room was backed up and did not adequately drain. There was GRIME on the remote, furniture and lamps. I visibly saw dirt in the corners of the room and bathroom. There was an active prescience of roaches. In addition, there were surprise charges not mentioned when I booked, one was the pet fee. I made a notation that I was bringing out 9 pound dog and wanted a dog friendly room. However, when the final charges appeared on my confirmation, there was no mention of a separate pet fee. I did not find this out until we checked in.

2/10 Poor

The shower in our room would not work at all. Very inconvenient. We were in Charleston for my granddaughter's surgery and couldn't even take a shower. When we notified the staff the front desk person working on 7/25/24 at 11 am was rude and stated that we should have checked the shower when we got there. I could not believe that she said that. I had already notified the night shift person at 6am when I discovered the shower would not work. I asked to speak to the manager and she was just as ruse as the clerk. She made it seem as if though it was our fault that the shower didn't work and that their maintenance person did not make sure our shower worked before we for there. I was very disappointed that the shower was mot working and even more disappointed that the staff was not apologetic at all and treated us this way! We will not be staying at any Best Western again!
