The room was clean and comfortable. However the elevator and ice maker on our floor were out of service and the fresh cream of coffee was out of order. For the cost to stay for a night or 2 those items would be expected to be in working order.

Room was extremely clean. Bathtub was a little dingy but we showered. Dealt with 4 staff members. Three out of the four were grumpy for the most part. Asked where the gym was located. The staff member asked us if we were staying on the property. Well, why would be ask where the gym was if we weren’t? Only had orange juice for breakfast. It was watered down. Parking was great. We’d stay there again. Hopefully a couple of the staff members find a new job they are happy with before then.

I booked a hotel room for three people with two queen beds. When I arrived, the receptionist was rude and claimed the booking was for only one bed; I showed her the reservation, and she said nothing. The elevator wasn't working, so I had to carry my suitcase up the stairs. Early in the morning—at 8:00 AM—someone started banging on the door. An hour later, there was another knock; I opened the door to find a cleaner who said they were checking the rooms. I told her my checkout wasn't until 11:00, but an hour later she knocked again. It was a terrible morning. I was in Best Western Downtown Syracuse reception was so friendly, hotel was clean. in Best Western Plus Brooklyn Emmons and Best Western Brooklyn Coney Island., the hotels was so clean staff was friendly. but Best Western The Inn at the Fairgrounds horrible experience.
