Basic but convenient

Basic hotel that is a few minutes drive from downtown Frederick. The hotel could use a facelift, as it is a little dated, but has a large amount of rooms. The room was a bit dark with limited lighting — my only critique. The breakfast was fairly good with a number of options in the small dining room. It should be noted that this hotel doesn’t have an elevator to the second floor.

Don’t stay here

This place is a dump. The parking lot had guys sitting outside drinking in between cars. The exterior of the hotel is run down and dirty. No elevator so we had to carry our heavy luggage from a two week road trip upstairs. The bathroom was disgusting and had hair in the tub, the shelves and tub floor were dirty and there was mold all over the ceiling. The floors hadn’t been properly cleaned. The carpet in the room itself had us wearing socks the entire stay. The sink outside the bathroom was dirty and looked like it hadn’t been scrubbed in months. The TV didn’t work. The only saving grace was the beds were comfortable. I can’t believe best western put their name on this one. What a disappointment.

Average hotel with reasonable price

Hotel was a bit run down & not very clean (greasy door knobs) ac didn’t seem to work right, shower made horrible squealing noise. Bathroom was extremely small. It was alright for a one night stay. People that worked there were nice & it was in a nice, quiet part of town close to the historic part/shops.

It was average at best. People in the front messed up reservations for a family member that we paid for in advance. She showed up and they told her they had no suxh reservation for her and caused her to have a severe panic attack considering she drove a long way and it was late in the evening.

It was okay!

Average hotel. Person at front desk was kind and professional. Hotel has smell of old smoke and cigarettes. Vending machines on our floor (2nd) and in the stairwell. King room with sofa was comfortable enough. Went to front desk to ask for pillows and a blanket, desk clerk got them right away. Missed breakfast, coffee was fine.
