This best western is thee worst best western I have been to in a while. Honestly best western has truly fell off. Besides being beyond outdated. This specific location was disgusting. Broc is a great human being however he should work some where alot better. 1st off Jared at the front desk should be illegal and against all things customer service. He is horrible, rude, and just should work in services. The towels all have stains and are dirty stained, the sheets are disgusting with cigarette holes stains and nasty old seem very washed out and low quality. The parking lot is horrible and the cleaning crew dont look lile they do too much. The price is not worth a stay here or anywhere. It is complete robbery. The people in the front dont honor the points either which is a complete waste. I am disgusting that I had to stay here due to my child have an event close by. This location should be shut down. Best western quality is no longer a reliable brand. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!! DO NOT STAY AT ANY BEST WESTERN. THE ONE IN TEXAS NY ARE ALSO JUST AS HORRIBLE!!!!

All in all, we enjoyed our stay, but its crazy to me that the vending machine on the 1st floor has apparently not worked for so long that there's Pepsi in there from 2023 that looks more like sweet tea. Very outdated hotel than needs a good face lift.

No coffee machine in room, no breakfast because the kitchen is being cleaned, not even coffee at front desk. No bottled water, hair in the shower.

The young man at the desk was very helpful, however the management may need some training.
We stayed 3 nights during Thanksgiving.
No breakfast available on Thanksgiving morning, not even coffee. It’s up to management to ensure sufficient coverage over a holiday.
There was no ramp from the parking lot to the walkway, again, poor planning. My wife is in a wheelchair, so pretty inconvenient.
We booked for 3 nights, yet only 2 bath towels were provided , we eventually found someone from housekeeping , also 1 roll of toilet paper, until we found someone from housekeeping. No shelves in the shower for soap, etc.
As someone who worked in management all my career, I couldn’t believe the lack of planning on management’s part.
We won’t stay there again.
Expected better from Best Western.

Very friendly. Rooms are ok but could using updating. It's a hotel in a college town. Hotel is within walking distance of Sanford Stadium and downtown area restaurants and retail. We have stayed here 2 times in "the tower"
