Verified Reviews of Best Western on the Beach

Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Less than expected!"
Overall Score3.0/ 5
Our stay was very nice,the room even apart of a older establishment was clean,with a nice view.The 2nd floor was a bit noisy with the roof top air conditioning just outside our door.Usually with a higher price you receive at least a continental breakfast,nothing not even coffee in the lobby. We understood paying for the view but felt the added tax/other was a bit too much.

"Expensive but clean."
Overall Score3.0/ 5
I specifically asked for a room with a beach facing balcony. Instead, paid $300 a night for a view of the back side of another building and the street. The rooms have been updated but the lighting is poor. But it was clean and comfortable. In this time, a clean motel room is a rare thing….
