April, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Definitely will stay again!

I was supossed to stay 3 nights, but my trip got cut short due to a family emergency. The hotel was gracious and understanding about my situation. The 1 night I did stay, the room was clean, and roomy. The only complaint i have was the water pressure for the shower could be better. But the bathroom was spacious, and clean! Thank you again best western for a great stay! Definitely will stay there again when i visit Alabama again!

Good price, okay room

Good price, good location. Cigarette/vape smoke in my face as I got out of my vehicle under the front door canopy, hotel under construction, mattress was not comfortable.
DiAnna, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The only real negative I would leave is the hot breakfast was not very good. Otherwise, great room for a layover on the way to the beach

8/10 Very good

Nice place to stay when driving through.

10/10 Exceptional

Good Stay

My stay was pleasant. The room was clean, and the breakfast was good. The hotel was under renovation, but it didn't cause us any problems.
Dwight, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The area was nice and the staff were kind & friendly. The bed was clean and the bathroom was clean. The room had some kind of jelly/lotion/gunk on the carpet when we got there and there was gunk on the curtains.

8/10 Very good

The property is under construction so we had some issues related to that. The breakfast was quite good. I'm guessing once they are done the place will be a better place to stay.

Angela, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We just stopped for the night on our way to Florida, talking with the front desk when checking out and she gave us a couple bottles of water, in case there wasn't any available. Such an amazing jester. Would definitely recommend! They are remodeling, but did not affect us at all
