Option for Visiting Wake Forest

It was clean and the beds were comfortable. The breakfast was good, everyone we encountered was polite, helpful, and friendly. There was coffee available for free that was pretty good and there were snacks as well as water available to buy. I would stay there again.

Very pleasant stay

Our stay at this Best Western was very pleasant. The receptionist could not have been nicer, and the hotel was very clean. The building itself is older and shows signs of wear, but that didn't effect our stay. I would recommend this hotel.

Desk clerk could have been friendlier. We had issues with tv controller batteries being dead she argued for over hour then ended putting batteries in and fixed it. My husband was there for leukemia checkup at cancer center so he likes to watch tv. It was stressful
