I stayed at the Best Western in…Nashville, Tennessee. I stayed at the Best Western in Nashville, Tennessee March 3rd and 4th. Everything was OK until the bathroom. The toilet was very low, so low that I struggled to get up. Now, a high proportion of travelers are older, retired folks. So, a lower than normal toilet seemed crazy! In addition, on a low toilet, certain male parts get dunked, in toilet water full of urine and fecal matter! I approached the desk clerk and described the problem. He said he was aware of the problem, that many guests have complained. He added that the low toilets came with the building and they would be changed with the next renovation. A customer hygiene problem, known from the time the building was built, not to be addressed until the next renovation, seems like Best Western doesn’t care much about customer satisfaction.

My wife and I recently traveled to San… My wife and I recently traveled to San Diego, to visit family so we booked reservations at the Best Western Seven Seas (04-04-2024/04-07-2024). We arrived about 11:30 pm to check in and received our room key. It was very late and we were very tired and all we wanted to do was get a shower and get some sleep. When we pulled back the sheets and there was dried blood on the sheets where the last person had slept. This was extremely upsetting to us to see someone’s blood staining the sheets of the bed we were supposed to be sleeping in (see Photo). During this time, we also noticed that the hand towels were obviously dirty and wrinkled. I called the front desk to notify the clerk and he readily switched our room. He was very polite and understanding and apologized for the inconvenience. I left my cell number with him as I wanted to talk to the manager when he/she came in the next morning. I was told by the clerk that the managers Sally or Steve would be in around 10:00 am. I stopped in the next morning to see Sally or Steve and was told by Wanda (not a very nice person) that the manager would not be in until 3:00 pm and asked if she could help. I explained what had happened to us last night. At this point she became very indignant and went on to explain that she had “been in the business for 28 years and had never seen or heard of this happening ever before and said that she inspected the room after the maid had cleaned it”. Wow, she was actually called me a liar!!! I wasn’t about to get into a verbal altercation with this employee. I once again, left my number with the front desk clerk so Sally or Steve could call me. The front desk clerk said she would call me in an hour after she talked with her manager. I said that was fine as I wanted to speak to someone about this. Well, it turned out that neither manager had the decency or took the responsibility to call me to address the issue. I was going to talk to the manager about refunding the cost of our room for that night. Since I didn’t hear from either manager or the front desk clerk, I called the Best Western main number and reached a Customer Service Representative. I explained what had happened to us at the Seven Seas location and asked to speak to a Regional Manager or a Regional Director. I was sent to another CSR and soon realized that I would not get to speak with someone outside of the CSR loop. I did ask her to have that night comped and she gave me points for a free night. As this point, I am very frustrated with not being able to speak with a Regional Manager or Director I agreed with the free night offer and ended the call. I have to say that I have never been treated like this at any hotel that I have ever stayed at. The lack of concern for our horrible experience and then I was basically called a liar when we I tried to explain the situation to the hotel staff. I know that this is not a perfect world but, I do expect to be treated with some dignity and respect. After everything I had to go through I am asking to have our whole stay refunded. My reasoning for this is the lack of communication from the hotel managers, lack of concern for this incident and the disrespect, condescending tone and accusations from Wanda and not to mention the health and hygiene issue we encountered. No one from the hotel or their corporate office has contacted me after I sent them email, phone call, or letter. They simply do not care about the customer or their business.

Be Aware Smoking Fee Scam!!! Please people if you can, stay away from Best Western. Alot of smoking fee fraud happening and they will charge you for it days after you receive your final receipt. (With zero notification by them). You are forced to sign the smoking fee agreement otherwise you cannot stay there. I'm not a smoker nor do I smoke, and you get charged based on if the housekeeper or maid reports your room smelling like smoke which my room did not. Its hearsay with them and Best Western along with Best Western Corporate will NOT show you proof of their false accusations of a customer. BE AWARE please this place is a total SCAM.

Very disappointing " 4 star" hotel Poor standard of reception area and stairs.Paint chipped, steep stairs overused as lifts minimal. Ridiculously long corridor to room . (200 steps) Failed shower, failed again despite being mended Painting outside our room leaving smell and intrusion of workmen by windows. Lack of apology when complained. Poor choice of evening meal. Hotel looked from outside as if it was 60s flat block waiting for demolition. Nothing inside compensated! Our last stay was at best western , delightful and well maintained in Nimes , what a contrast! NB staff ( excluding manager) were all pleasant, breakfast good especially fresh fruit.

Management of Rewards Points Sucks Liked: Best Western Plus motels rooms and breakfast Disliked: Best Western Rewards Program management. It is difficult to check status and rewards points totals are not given. I realize they have MBA's and possibly PhD's trying to minimize the points. I cannot see when points expire, or my total points. I just had a good experience with IHG Group (Hilton) rewards program and will favor them in the future. Staybridge Suites and Hotels.com is earning my business. I recently got 2 free nights! I quit using Marriott because they seemed to have closed most restaurants and rewards points policies are too one-sided.
