Verified Reviews of Best Western Plus White Bear Country Inn

Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Horrible! Don’t stay if you want sleep."
Overall Score2.0/ 5
The front desk lady was pounding on our door around 11pm and would not leave even after we asked her. Around two am there were a bunch of people shooting in the hallway and At 4am there was loud metal clanking for about 15 minutes out in the hall. We went to the hotel to sleep since we have very small children and got less sleep there than with our kids. We were very unhappy.

"Lack of follow through."
Overall Score2.0/ 5
The stay at this hotel was actually very good, but the entire staff seems to lack in follow through. After a two night stay, I left my pill minder with all of my medications for a two week vacation in the room. The afternoon after I checked out a clerk called and let me know that I left my pill minder. I gave him the address of a relative that I would be staying with during the trip and he promised that the pills would be mailed out right away. I had about a week of additional pills in case of emergency. A full week passed and the package from the hotel didn't arrive. I called and spoke with a clerk who found the pill minder still unshipped. I gave her the address and my credit card number to overnight the package. She promised that she would ship it overnight via USPS and would call me with the tracking number. I expressed to her the urgency in getting overnight delivery because I need these medications. She never called with the tracking number. This morning, I called the hotel and asked for the manager. The man on the phone said he was the assistant manager. I explained my situation and he found the tracking number and assured me that the package would arrive by 6PM. The package never arrived and the USPS states that a label has been printed but the package has not been received by USPS. In addition my card has not been charged for the overnight shipping, I know that at least three people have been involved and all of them have failed to follow through on their promises.

"Annoying"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
It might be splitting hairs but I booked a suite with a jacuzzi and fire place and when I checked in got to my room there was no jacuzzi or fireplace when I asked the desk they said I needed to contact the website when I contact the website they told me I needed to talk to the hotel about what the difference would be. Whole reason I booked with the website was because I thought it was easier but now I'm being put in the middle and having to argue to get any compensation back. It's a nice hotel with nice staff in just annoyed I didn't get the room I paid for two months ago.
