"Average"

Best Western White House Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The Inn was full of charm. We had such a wonderful stay. The hot tub was the stand out of the amenities with it's overwhelming size, warmth, and bubbles! The size of the smart tv would have to come close to that but the breakfast was also very nice. We would definitely stay there again and recommend to all!"
