⭐⭐ 2/5 Stars — Unforgettable "Luxury" Service!
If you’re looking for a hotel experience that doubles as an interactive comedy thriller, this is the place for you! Where to start?
Housekeeping here is so dedicated to preserving history that I assume they vacuumed right around a men’s belt left on the floor by a previous guest. Truly immaculate attention to detail. The bathroom also features a lovely broken toilet paper holder, which is great if you enjoy the cardio of chasing a runaway TP roll across the floor. As for breakfast? It takes a unique talent to completely ruin potatoes and eggs to the point of being "funky," but luckily, they didn’t botch the bacon. 🙌🏻 Priorities, right?
The real 5-star service started with a ceiling device that was blinking like a rave strobe light, keeping us awake all night and the staff that is so familiar with their own rooms that they give out completely wrong information! When I asked the front desk for a maintenance check, assuming for a low battery, the desk staff calls the manager and after being told the details of the concern/device, he was told it’s a “carbon monoxide detector that always blinks!” Cool! Desk staff wouldn’t let me borrow a ladder I jokingly asked to use to remove the battery so I suggested I’d use the furniture in the room to do so. His response? “🤷🏿♂️ok” So with a simple quarter turn, said device is removed only to realize there’s no battery; and thought dang, quite the sophisticated hotel to have CO2 detectors hardwired also! But spoiler alert , a phone call to the room from the indifferent & misinformed desk clerk reveals this is in fact NOT a CO2 detector but instead part of the hard wired fire alarm system. Okay, my bad, no problem, immediately put it back. No harm, no foul…right?
Ahahaha, noooooo! The manager (who initially told her employee what the device even was, albeit obviously wrong) was quick to handle it with her signature grace and intellect (clearly an expert in facility management and federal law). In such a professional, calm & kind manner of speaking, she made sure I knew that I had committed a federal crime removing a fire alarm (pffft, how could I forget that she manages airplanes, oh wait, Google reminded me hotel rooms aren’t the same as planes, phew!) and that we had to get off the property! Woah lady, yall said it was a CO2 detector, it was promptly put back in place, aaaaaannd it’s not a federal crime btw. But she was such a good listener that she wasn’t interested in any facts, so to save us both time, I gave her the courtesy of disconnecting the call.
When we came back to pack our bags, this incredibly considerate manager had actually called the local police department just to ensure we were safely escorted off the property. Truly, such bespoke service & such a personal touch! I gotta say tho, the best thing about our whole BW experience was those two cops! They were totally professional, kind, and even gave some good suggestions on the situation to us 😉 oh and don’t worry, the other guests will also know what’s going bc the manager feels it’s important to share your stuff with other people!
What, now I’m banned you say? Oh, that’s cute. No worries, it was my first and my last stay at a BW anyway, that room was terrible! Glad I only wasted one night there. But then why two stars if it was such a terrible experience? That’s bc as I relaxed with no worries in my much better hotel room across the street looking back at the Best Western, I was thankful for getting to take home such a hysterical memory! 🤠 After-all, memories are the best souvenirs, so thank you Best Western and kudos to your top-tier staffing selections that made this possible!✌🏻
