The breakfast area has nice/new tables & chairs, with many breakfast options. There is a guest laundry room for longer stays. Right off the highway (but far enough from the highway to stay away from highway noise), and near a few truck stops makes it obvious that a few professional drivers stay here too. Many food options are within a highway exit or two. Parking is reasonable with parking in back too, as well as easy room card access from the back parking to the lobby or stairs. All staff were kind & professional. Thank you Best Western staff

I reached out to them twice in a week period about making specific arrangements such as early check-in, in which I never got a response. For the kind of money they ask for, I expect some kind of response. Because of this experience, I cancelled the reservation and booked at Hotel Goodwin, which was much cheaper and offered better service. However, Merrill & Houston's Steak Joint inside the hotel is another story. They are fantastic which I will be giving 5 stars in a different review. It's unfortunate the hotel doesn't match that kind of service I received at the restaurant.

Originally booked a 2 Queen riverside view room and was unknowingly upgraded to a king suite. It was a very nice room but I was staying with a friend so I actually requested to be downgraded to my original room choice and they were able to switch my room. I appreciated the thought though. Reason it gets 4 stars instead of 5 was because the complimentary breakfast was a little underwhelming. For a nicer and more premium hotel like this I was hoping for a little more than just some muffins, fruit, and yogurt.

This hotel was near perfect and I could see why it's Michelin rated…read more I don't usually stay in boutique hotels but when looking at the nearby major chains, they didn't look appealing. The room was clean and had a rustic modern feel. When the carpet is beige, you know they have to take care of it consistently. Everything had a plush feel. The shower had a rainfall showerhead and a handheld. There's a scent that emanates throughout the hotel and into your room. It's light and adds to the ambiance. It's also in the sheets and linen too. I guess that adds to one of the negatives I list later in that the HVAC seems to be centrally controlled. There was some very minor debris in the sink that may have been left from wiping of a dirty rag, but that was mostly it. Gym was nice and parking was plentiful and free. What I didn't like: - Mini fridge in the room had a lot of snacks and other drinks that I assume were for sale. I usually pack my own food, so those items took up some space in the fridge - I get cold easily, so I try to adjust the thermostat, but it's centrally controlled, which I've never seen... I'm assuming all of the rooms are regulated in this way... - Breakfast bar- had bare minimal which I really don't mind. I really wouldn't expect a place like this to serve you breakfast unless it was full service. Would definitely come back

Also has a mini bar in the room. Only negative point is there was no refrigerator or microwave. Great restaurant located just off the lobby for a fine dining experience. Does not have full breakfast but does have grab and go muffins, fruit, coffee, etc. They also have a rooftop bar where one can sit inside or outside. Full bar with good bartenders. Menu is limited but still plenty to choose from. We had an order of mussels and a charcuterie tray. Both were very good. Our bartender was Colton and he took good care of us.

I'm happy to say that's not the case at Whiskey Hotel Barbecue. I had shredded brisket, Mac and cheese, and the carrot slaw. The slaw wasn't overdressed and had a nice crunch, the brisket was tender and had good flavor, and the Mac and cheese was creamy. You order off the board based on what is available, so it helps to go early if there's something you really want, but I don't mind being flexible because I'd rather have fresh food and understand you can't just make smoked meats on the fly. The employees recommend sauces and how they liked to serve items. I'll definitely be back! They said they'll have a different menu during winter.

Eek! Methinks not. I…read morehate writing bad reviews. I always try to find redeeming qualities. This is absolutely the worst motel I have ever stayed in. The pictures I uploaded just begin to tell the story - just begin. Where do I start? Let's hit the high points, they won't take long: * The bartender was a very nice young lady and I truly enjoyed conversing with her. * I did not see any cockroaches in my motel room (Room #6). That was it, short and sweet. The low points: Any disaster you can think of when renting a motel room would probably be included in a description of my room. The aforementioned lady bartender apologized when she rented it to me, sight unseen. Little did I know what was to come ..... After a few drinks and a personal pizza, it was time to go to my room (and they were getting ready to close up for the night). A 1st hint was there were no curtains on the windows, a pair of pliers turned the A/C unit on and off, and the air reeked of cigarette smoke. I found it odd when looking at the bed that the two pillows were stacked on top of each other, like you might do when watching TV. I peeled back the covers and discovered the linens hadn't been changed, there were visible stains on them. I opted to sleep on top of the covers, with my clothes on, as the motel office had closed for the night, and I was dog-tired after a long day at work. The next morning, I wanted to take a shower. I walked into the 'bathroom' area and saw a folded towel and a used washcloth draped over the sink, left by the last occupant. OK, in all my years of traveling, I have learned to be self-sufficient and carry everything needed to take a shower, including towel and washcloth. The toilet seat was broken. There was a used bar of Zest soap on the sink. I peered into the shower stall and found dirt so dark on the light colored tiles that it was obvious that it hadn't been cleaned in years. There was no shower curtain. I ran the water hot, and it was very hot, in order to rinse off any dirt that was loose and left behind. Yes, I saw dirt run down the drain. Of course, the shower water supply was hooked up backwards, no surprise there! A full-length mirror was stood up against the wall where clothes would normally be hung in a little closet-like cubby hole. That was the only mirror. The overhead light bulbs were not covered. The switch for the overhead light was installed upside down. The carpeting had obvious stains from something spilled. Walls and ceilings needed some TLC. All of the furniture was something a resale shop would refuse. I took my shower, and dressed. While dressing, a person of the female persuasion stopped at my uncurtained window, cupped her hands along side her face and peered inside. Once she saw me getting dressed, she continued on her journey. Obviously, I do not recommend. 'Nuff said!
