4/10 Fair

It was just okay
The room itself was pretty clean. However the light was out inside the bathroom where the toilet and shower are, so we had to leave the door open in order to see. The smoke detector (or co2 not sure) was hanging off the wall and the curtain rods were crooked like they had been pulled too hard so they didn’t shut tightly. It seems like hotels these days should offer smart tv options, not just basic cable.

4/10 Fair

Without checking the proper check out date the house cleaning manager threw out the foods and drinks kept in the refrigerator, took my suitcases and kept it down . The lady did not bother to get the correct room number. Em 201 was supposed to be cleaned and inspite of the cleaning boy telling her this is not the correct room she messed up. Threw all the laundry clothes along with new clothes When I spoke to her she just said sorry but did not really care. I raised the issue with duty manager on 6/3/2024 in afternoon and he dismissed it as something it normallly happens First the house keeping manager need to check the log book properly If other people are telling her that she is not correct she had thame arrogance not to listen The manager dismissed it being something that happens all the time I have been living in USA as a citizen for more than quarter century and nowhere it has happened except at this best western at Chena River lodge on 1255 TVSA pkwy Fairbanks Alaska The banger also threatened me to throw out of property as I spoke in a raised tone Obviously any one would be upset if their belongings are touched without permission when they are still in the room The manger’s unfit to do his job if he cannot educate his staff and manage them properly I filed a complaint through corporate for best western and they said the general manager would contact or the property owner None had contacted me so far Such is the service. Very poor experience

I had a great stay at the hotel but the toilet smelled like urine. I left the fan on constantly with the door closed. Other than that, great stay.
