Best Western Seven Seas

Best Western Seven Seas

4/10 Poor
"After I checked in I went to the room and the keys didn’t work. The front desk advised me that the battery was dead on the door lock so I needed to change rooms. There were no similar rooms available so I was given a downgraded room. I was told I would be given half off for my first night and moved into a comparable room that I had originally booked. Neither of these things were followed through. The landscaping is well maintained and the staff is friendly. The room was old with stains on the carpet and an empty beer or soda can under the bed. The room was cheap so I guess I wasn’t surprised."

10/10 Excellent
"Room and grounds were very clean. Convenient location right off the freeway. Only draw back was that both the ice machine and water dispenser were both out of order but the staff were nice enough to let us use the water dispenser in their break room. Would stay there again."
