A nice place to stay

The hotel is redoing the rooms. They are very nice. New carpet, bathroom fixtures etc. There is much variety at breakfast. The staff was welcoming. Everything was clean. My one complaint was our room was facing a large gas station. There were large lights that shined right into our room. Our room had no black out shades.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The room was nice. It had a nice decor of blue and white.. And extremely dated television, a small bathroom. Beds were actually very good. We did have to change our room because they accidentally put us in a room that hadn’t been cleaned. They were very apologetic and happy to accommodate. This hotel is half being remodeled from best Western to a holiday so that was evident. There were some lingering cigarette smells throughout the hotel, but not in the rooms. The elevator was disgusting and had a huge stain in it, and it was stained yellow all over. The breakfast was two stars just mediocrity. I would not stay at this holiday again. It was also very expensive for the weekend and what we were getting.
