Best Western Inn

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 16 Nov 2010 rated 10 out of 10.

The staff was wonderful, friendly, helpful. The rooms were super clean, maybe freshly painted even. The pool area was receiving a paint update also. Breakfast was a pretty standard continental – no surprises, nothing to complain about. Would definitely stay there again. This has not been our first stay but by far the best one yet.

Positives: Very clean, great location, quiet.

Negatives: The bed was pretty small.

It was an ok motel. The bathroom had a used towel in front of the tub on the floor and had not been cleaned. There was a water bottle on the dresser and the room hadn't been vacuumed. The manager inspected the room and quickly found another room for us that way okay.

Positives: The manager quickly resolved our problem.

Negatives: The room had not been made up.

Need an explanation of how to get to it, i.e. You can see it, but it is too easy to make a wrong turn. Need better sign-age. An average motel that did the job, a good nights rest.

Positives: Good beds, nice towels.

Negatives: No refrigerator or microwave.

The sign on the pool door said no one under 18 after 10pm. We checked in late and had our 11 year old daughter with us and she really wanted to swim. They said she could as long as no other adults came in it worked out for us, but may not have.

Positives: Convenient location, warm pool.

Negatives: Hotel was remodeling and there was furniture stacked up here and there.

This hotel was not a 2 star quality hotel. Not sure if the hotel was based solely on name recognition or if a rater actually stayed here to experience its 1 star quality and comfort.

Positives: Hotel was in a convenient location.

Negatives: This hotel was not a 2 star hotel by any means.

Friendly helpful staff. Nice continental breakfast. Clean rooms for a decent price. Pool area was clean and the kids liked the water temp. I would stay at this hotel again.

Negatives: Parking could be better.

Since the hotel was torn up, there should have a discount for all the inconvenience it caused its guests. The lobby was closed and so was the breakfast area. It was very uncomfortable to eat where others were swimming and splashing in the pool.

Positives: It was on the main highway and the staff was friendly.

Negatives: The lobby was torn up and we had to have our breakfast on the rim of the swimming pool.

The night before I had stayed in a Holiday Inn in Duluth, MN for $39.00. It was very nice. The Best Western I stayed at in Bemidji was as nice as a any Super Eight (not too nice) and I paid $80. I called Comfort Inn up the street where I had stayed before and they were only $56.00 with my frequent traveler club, Guest Privileges.

Positives: It had a nice lodge look to both its exterior and its furnishings.

Negatives: The entrance was blocked for remodeling.

It was a place to sleep and relax after visiting the sites in Bemidji. The people were friendly and that saved it from being a rather mediocre hotel experience. But for a Best Western, it wasn't much better than a motel or Budget type place like a Super 8 or some such place. I guess it was OK for just a place to relax, but I would have preferred a little more ambiance and just some kind of atmosphere.

Positives: It was a place to sleep while visiting Bemidji.

Negatives: Whirlpool was dirty, sauna was ho hum, pool was so-so, room was so-so.

This hotel is very conveniently located, with a nice pool and scrumptious free breakfast. It clearly fills up before other hotels, as the desk clerk was turning people away to other hotels. The beds are comfortable, rooms clean and well maintained, and the internet access is quite fast. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and I was pleased to find laundry machines (which I needed) available and in good repair. A VERY good experience here for me!

Positives: Internet access, both WiFi in the lobby and Ethernet in the room.

Negatives: Highway noise, but that comes with a convenient location. Only troublesome when I had the window open.

Not a four-star endeavor by any stretch, but a perfectly satisfying and<BR/>comfortable hotel.

Positives: Staff was friendly. Pool had long hours -- to midnight.

Negatives: Seemed a little battlewarn.
