Verified Reviews of Best Western University Inn at Valparaiso

Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Disappointed"
Overall Score2.0/ 5
I booked for exterior room, told not available at check in. Booked a king with sofa bed for three people, but sofa bed had no sheets or pillow in room. Went to call housekeeping and main desk, only to find hotel phone in room not working. That would've been nice to know at check in. Bed clean but very uncomfortable.

"It was a great hotel experience! I will be back!"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
It was a great experience, clean essential hotel. A great plus is that it is pet friendly. Friendly, helpful staff and great breakfast, I liked the fresh waffles. I will be back.

"WORST EXPERIENCE EVER."
Overall Score1.0/ 5
I had made reservations months ago for one night because my friend got married. I had to change the date as the wedding changed dates as well. I made changes online and got a confirmation receipt that my changes were approved and confirmed. I got to the hotel the day of the wedding only to find out that my booking wasn't Cha fed in their system and they couldn't change it. I had to rent a room for twice the price I paid months ago. And they wouldn't give me a refund for the night I wasn't going to use. All this asside, the pillowcases were dirty and staff was clearly lazy. Worst hotel experience ever. I will never do any business with Best Western.

"Good for the price :)."
Overall Score3.0/ 5
This place was much better than expected. However, I had concerns with the cleanliness there were random hairs and lots of rust stains that made me uncomfortable.

23-Aug-2020 Verified Review, stayed from Sat Aug 22 to Sun Aug 23 2020 at a $98.00 average nightly rate.
"Dirty hotel, with a joke of a breakfast."
Overall Score2.0/ 5
My room and my friends' rooms around mine all had cleanliness issues. Sheets were stained, bedskirts were damaged, the surfaces were very dusty and the rooms had an odor (like mildew?). The complimentary breakfast was a paper bag containing an apple, a granola bar and a warm bottle of water. If I pay what I did for a hotel with a complimentary breakfast, I expect more than a child's bagged lunch. Not happy with this experience.

"Average for what used to be a good stop."
Overall Score3.0/ 5
There was minor cosmetic faults with the room (door covering the fridge not in place but placed beside the unit and bathroom shower curtain retainer missing, placed under bathroom sink) that really made this stay average compared to the high standards that Best Western normally sets. Breakfast (withstanding COVID) was disappointing as it consisted of a bottle of water, a piece of fruit and a cereal bar.
