Staff was very helpful and very kind. The facilities were extremely clean. The staff looked busy all the time and were available for any questions or assistance needed. I was extremely happy with the staff.

Everything was fine. The price was reasonable and again the staff made it a very enjoyable stay.

Good location right next to I-90 and I-35 interchanges. Clean room. Had trouble with blinds (maybe broken?) but the black out was pretty good. Broken office chair -- it went all the way down when I sat on it. LOL. I'm only 120 lbs! I meant to tell them but forgot.

Just the broken chair and the blinds issues. All else was good.

The people at the front desk were very nice. The room was a good size. The bed was comfortable. The door and walls were thick enough not to hear outside noises. The breakfast had a good selection, both hot and cold. A coffee machine that made a very good cup of coffee.

Nothing

Good staff and very clean. Beds were comfortable, but not enough chairs.

Had to go to desk to get a guide to the TV. Remote batteries were getting low. Breakfast was just motel food, fruit was over-ripe, butter was hard. They need a better brand of coffee.

Breakfast looked appealing and sufficient but we did not eat there. Location was close to the interstate and convenient for us as we were staying only for the night enroute home to Wisconsin. Many restaurant choices close to the hotel

We stop in 3 different hotels in the summer on the way to our cabin and in the fall on our way back south. The Best Western is the best hotel for the price, comfort, breakfast, and location. They beat all the other hotels we stayed at.

Just one inconvenience. You have to go to the next exit to find a variety of restaurants to dine at. There is a restaurant near by, but we have had issues with them.

Everything was perfect!

Breakfast buffet was plenty decent. The room was very comfortable, and best of all, the sweet young ladies that helped me check in/out, and helped with other things.

Nothing right now.

Surrounding area was not good, everything is out of business/abandoned. Other than Harley dealer and Applebees, the town is a disaster

The couch in the room needs replacing, and some deodorizing might be nice.

Bed and pillows are very comfortable. The room is clean. All the housekeepers and front desk people were very friendly.

The shower drain needed to be worked on. Not draining fast enough. The breakfast was only average at best. The woman restocking the breakfast wasn't very friendly.
