I would have given the hotel full stars if not for the hidden fee we were asked to pay when we arrived an hour and a half before their official check in time! They said the room was ready BUT they charge $30 for early check in! That was our very first encounter with staff when we arrived after a long, tiring winter journey. It definitely soured our stay! I have never encountered an ‘early check in fee’ at any other place we have stayed and we have booked many hotel rooms including Best Western in other locations. What a shock, especially when the room was ready! A huge annoyance as well as we were literally left sitting in the lobby waiting for check in. We were able to store our luggage at the hotel and walk around the block but the location is an urban, commercial *****, not an attractive area to wait in. When I emailed the hotel afterwards to complain to the manager I got nothing but run around and lame excuses for the charge, something about giving housekeeping staff more time to get the room ready. Give me a break, the room WAS READY. The hotel is clean and the facilities new, but we don’t recommend it at all due to being asked to pay $30 just to check in an hour and a half early.
