I wanted to give 3 stars, but since my room was clean and comfortable, I bumped it up to 4 stars based on my room I was very hesitant to stay here based on some bad reviews Hallways and elevators give a bad impression

Check in office person, not very welcoming Once in my room, I did a inspection thinking it would fail Everything was clean Carpet looked like it could use a deep shampoo Some rips in the bedding and cigarette burns on bathroom counter ( non smoking room) But it was surprisingly clean and comfortable There was some very unfriendly, shady looking people in building, and my neighbor kept slamming their door Also you can hear everything going on in hallway I was impressed with the maid service and room was comfortable and thats what saved the review

I travel throughout New England for work and am a Best Western Diamond rewards member With the exception of my stay at the Waterville, Maine location my expectations have always been exceeded at every Best Western location I’ve stayed at( have Stayed 20 plus times over the last 7 months) Usually the hotel is clean and inviting, has friendly competent staff, easy access doors, facility smells nice and so on

My experience at Best Western Waterville was far different than what I have experienced at many of their other locations First, I had difficulty getting into my room as neither key worked, I called to front desk and was told someone would be up with a key that worked A gentleman came up asked for my 2 keys and tried them( they didn’t work) He then used the key he had and opened the door, he mentioned to me to keep the keys away from electronics ( referencing my cell phone) I let him know I had tried the keys as soon as I arrived at the room( had not taken my cell phone out of my purse to call front desk until after trying keys) Shortly after that, I grabbed one of the hotel carts to bring my work bags up to my room If you are trying to enter the hotel through any door other than the front with luggage on a cart( good luck) It is impossible to hold the door open, push the cart over the hump at the threshold and actually get inside the hotel(was not impressed) Also, as mentioned in other reviews the hallways and elevators do not give a good first impression and they are smelly( very strong cleaning agent present) as if they are trying to mask some pungent odor Fortunately the room was surprisingly clean and the bed was comfortable I was relieved the room did not reek of the smell in the hallways and elevator as I would have had to make other lodging arrangements On a positive note, breakfast was offered and there was an indoor heated pool The reason I have utilized Best Western up to this point is that they have offered great amenities They have offered a clean, inviting space in the common areas as well as individual rooms This location just was not on par with what I have experienced at other Best Western locations, I’m hopeful I don’t run upon another location like this

Worst Western Very outdatedThe restaurant gave me the creeps

Super dark and smellyMy rook stunk like stale cigarette smoke and mildewWhile walking through the hallways, it was obvious by the smell that people smoke inside roomsThe door to my room didn’t close on its own, I had to force it shut Kind of a concern considering the type of people who were also staying there Lots of sketchy characters loitering in the parking lotThe bed felt like it was about 40 years old I could feel every springHairs in the bathroom and around the bed upon check inThe room didn’t get cleaned once during my three-night stayI give two stars because the water pressure was good
