• The room size was good.
• On the freeway, poor lighting, heater always on,

The heater/ac was always set to heat - the adjustment was broken the ceiling fan was not centered and noisy - couldn¿t use it the lighting in the room was horrible the refrigerator in the room froze my food and drink.”

• Free breakfast and newspaper.
• Grimy carpet and stinky towels.

“The hotel is conveniently located just off highway 99, but would have been hard to find without my yahoo! Map & directions. The complimentary hot breakfast and nice service made up for a room with dark, grimy carpet and a sunken mattress.”

• It was clean.
• Beds were too hard to sleep on.

“Bad part of town, As long as your husband was with you I guess it was safe Restaurant was not located in the hotel it was not open to get your own food or what you wanted. Meaning if you wanted another serving of what they gave you, you had to pay for it not enough pillows.”

• Vintage Sixties Charm like a classic automobile.
• Bad Area, Decrepit Facilities, Difficult Access to good restaurants.

“If you enjoy old Sixties style motels with a quaint and slightly nostalgic feel then this is for you. This place must have been stupendous at one time but now needs a facelift. The grounds are still rather pretty.”

• Full breakfast meal was good-portions to small for a young man like myself.
• The breakfast buffet was confusing to "use", but staff eventually helped me. The portions were too small for me.

“I was only at the hotel for one night and it was fine. I could not find an adequate hotel in this price range in Clovis, so I chose Best Western. I would recommend this hotel to friends.”

• The central garden is nice and free wireless connections.
• First room sent to had not been made up. Very inconvenient.

“I regularly stay at Sheratons, Hiltons, Radissons, and the like. This does not compare and I kept expecting cock roaches to appear. I will say the central garden area was large and nice for kids to run around in. I didn't use the pool, but it appeared well kept (from a distance). The rooms were not cool enough.”

• Nothing.
• Terrible facility and location.

“This hotel is terrible. The location is in an awful area. The pool was closed. I and filled with murky water. The room was disgusting. The furnishings were cheap and falling apart. The bathroom door didn't latch and the faucet didn't work correctly. The shower provided only a weak dribble. ”

• This hotel is not in a safe location at all.

“The hotel is not in a safe location. I heard gunshots the first night I stayed. The air-conditioning never seemed to get cool. The shower heads only let out a trickle of water.”

• This room did have a refrig, & microwave. Is was also a nice large room.
• It wasn't near any nice places to eat. It didn't have indoor corridors which are safer for woman traveling alone.

“This motel was in need of some maint. work, the water handles were backwards, hot water came out the cold side, and cold water came out the hot side in shower/tub area. This is an older facility.”

• The room was large and clean, but I felt it was very expensive for the service I received and couldn't use the phone, the free breakfast was great!
• Delapidated carpeting, rude night host, couldn't use the phone without a deposit even with my calling card, it was to overpriced and the hotel rundown.

“I liked the free breakfast. The staff was rude and the rooms are rundown for what I paid for the night. I wasn't very happy.”

• It was a nice surprise to have free breakfast and the room was very spacious.
• This hotel looked very sketchy/scary from the outside. It didn't seem to be in a very good neighborhood.

“Overall it was fine for the price (especially for a holiday weekend). The neighborhood was not the best and the hotel looked very scary from the outside (though the courtyard area inside was very pretty). The room was very spacious and clean,and there was a nice free breakfast provided the next morning.”

• I was able to use the wireless internet for free!!!! I could email event info before it was finished with my trip.
• The surrounding neighborhood was a little less appealing than I would have liked.

“This hotel was very clean, there was no smell of stale cigarettes, The room was spacious and the staff was kind and efficient. There were no problems checking in or out.”

• Great Breakfast, friendly staff, clean rooms.
• Safety concerns as room doors open directly into open parking lot.

“They charge $3 per night as energy usage charges. I think the use of electricity is included in room rent.”

• The beds were very poor. Not a good night's sleep

“The staff was nice. The location was right off the freeway. The room was very plain. The beds seemed like they were 50 years old. No one in our group slept well.”

• Close to the freeway.
• The room we were in was under repair. They were installing new bathroom floors, this job was incomplete at the time of rent the room.

“The hotel is an older hotel in the area. For the maintenance of the grounds, this area needed more care. The leaves from the trees would be tracked into the room. The staff worked with us for the delay in our check in. We were to arrive on Thursday, but arrived on Friday. They gave us one of their rooms that was not completed (under repair). These rooms were paid for in advance. and they should have given us better rooms for our stay. I had to hear about this all weekend from my wife, do you know what I mean?”

“I do not recommend this hotel. It is old and not maintained. The bathroom walls were cracked and needed painting. The carpet is old and looks dirty. Not much selection on the TV. Bed was very uncomfortable. Bed was hard in some places and too soft in other places.”

“The hotel was horrible; let me say it again horrible. We drove for 3.5 hours on Friday night from LA to Fresno about 3-3:30 AM. First there was an energy fee that we had to pay ($3 a day no big deal ) they had no king size bed (no big deal we settled for queen) and then in the room the carpet was rundown and dirty. In the bathroom both the shower and the sink were clogged. We were too tired to go back so we changed our room the next day. A little better but not much improvement. Called the service desk at 9:00 PM for extra pillow and did not get a pillow.”
