Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Hotel room bathroom very clean. Extremely dirty, smelly carpet in room. Dogs allowed in rooms and obviously peed on carpet. Room was extremely damp. This was room 312. Pool water like hot tub water, very uncomfortable. Other Best westerns we stayed at during the trip had cool refreshing pools and really clean, fresh rooms.
