Check-in was cheerful, rooms were spacious and super clean with two comfy queen beds and we had a great night's sleep. Skipped the breakfast and had an amazing one at Tina's Cafe in town. I would highly recommend this place for travelers wanting a solid value for their hotel dollar. Thanks, Bestway Inn!, by Claire, April 9, 2017, rated 10/10 Excellent

- Review: Overall good, just if checkout is gonna be at 12 then the house keepers should start later on. We were woken up around 10:45 and 11ish with housekeeping knocking and then following a few minutes later another housekeeper, who tried to open the door. If policy is at 12 it should be around 12 they start, and not knocking and waking some people up., by Elijah, October 26, 2022, rated 10/10 Excellent
