10/10 Excellent
"Spent a few nights as a getaway with my eight-year-old daughter. Very affordable and VERY nice accommodations for the price. The staff was excellent and very helpful. The hotel sits right on the beach with beautiful views from the balcony. There is a nice restaurant and bar right at the hotel with affordable meals and drinks. The pool is lovely. The rooms and spacious and very, very clean. One of the most pleasant surprises of our trip was finding out there is a very good free breakfast available in the restaurant each morning for hotel guests. Found this hotel appropriate for both families and couples. We went in October and the beach and hotel were not too busy at all. Ocean and pool water VERY warm and LOVELY! Pros: Delicious top-tier free breakfast. Large, spacious, and very clean rooms. Excellent helpful staff. Everything you could need in one place - beach, restaurant, pool, bar, shop, and other eateries and activities within walking distance. We hardly left once we arrived at the hotel. Hotel is very well maintained and clean. Staff is abundant and helpful. Felt very safe as female travelers. Notes&Tips: Walmart is close enough to order a grocery delivery order upon arrival. About one hour from airport so be prepared to pay a bit of a fee if taking an Uber - although we had ZERO issues getting an Uber quickly. The hotel does NOT provide beach towels - although there are some affordable ones available for purchase in the gift shop. GREAT STAY! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!"

I know people all the time that say they wanna spend their vacation in a very expensive hotel instead of a budget hotel or even a reasonable hotel. But it seems everywhere I go Best Western, they're a cheaper hotel, but They really have better service than any other hotel that you can pay four hundred dollars a night for a thousand dollars a night for that , i've seen and I work in the industry."
