Run down
This is by far the worse Best Western I stayed at, pretty run down. I won’t be staying at this location again in the future. Customer service was good and there is a Tesla charging station near back of to the hotel.

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

Older property but very well maintained. Quiet and comfortable, normal free breakfast was good.
