Was told at checkin to wait till checkout to pay in cash. At checkout was told my debit card had been charged at 7AM the day of checkin, and it couldn't be credit in order for me to pay in cash.

Everything was fine except when I went to get a check into my room, the maintenance guys were in there working and I had to get to family breakfast. I came back later that night. Everything seemed to be fine. Everything was working except for the heater in the bathroom That the switch wouldn’t turn on the heater. Other than that, the state was fine modest accommodations but clean. At check-in, the desk person notified me that I would have a downstairs room as I requested, which was nice. I would stay here again as it’s close to my cousins house

Overall good. Good part: - Check in is easy. - In walking distance to some fast food restaurants and stores. Could be improved: - The floor is slightly dirty (indicated by the slipper I brought with myself) - the outlet on the lamp does not fit my chargers so I can't use it

Decent for sure!
Listen, I only stay at places that feel safe and are clean. I don’t think that’s too much to ask. The place was clean, the people working there were great, the breakfast (only available on the weekends) was delish, the room had a fridge. It was all decent. So let’s talk about the safety…this place, it was safe, but doesn’t give you the appearance that it is so. It’s in a slightly strange part of town, it feels very open to anyone driving by, there’s two extra locks on the door, etc. But technically we were safe. Oh and the photos online make the place look fancier than it is. The photographer should get a raise. All in all I wouldn’t call this place a “BEST Western.” I’d call it a “PRETTY DECENT Western.” All of that to say— I’d stay here again if the price was right.
