The property is laid out nicely. There are parking spaces for each room right in front of one’s assigned room which was great for easy unloading and loading one’s vehicle. The bathroom had a long sink which allows enough area for each person. The bathroom was nice and clean. I personally appreciate that the shower head was not way high up and there was decent water flow. The room was a nice size with two queen beds. The sheets were very comfortable and the duvet was the right weight. We also found the pillows to be comfortable! The sliding door had a great curtain that darkened the room pretty well. The downside was that there is a long window in the bathroom area that was uncovered, so that let light in. Our room was nice and quiet! My husband appreciated the coffee station with Wolfgang Puck coffee and Creamora. We would definitely return to this Best Western!
