Our visit to the Best Western in Center, Texas was uneventful compared to some of the more dramatic reviews that have been left by previous visitors. Upon arriving, it looked nice from the outside, and the entrance, check-in, lobby and dining area looked very nice as well. One thing of note, once you get your keycards, don't put them next to anything in your pockets or purse or you'll run the risk of it deactivating, and you'll have to get it re-activated. The elevator ride was interesting. When the door opened, we were greeted with a mix of insecticide and disinfectant, which backed up the hotel's statement of regular insecticide treatments and cleanliness. (The went away after the first day.) The ride was up was smooth, providing a little donk sound when it was approaching our floor, followed by little drop, and a 5 second floor shudder before the doors opened. When we got to our room, it was clean, inviting and the room was cold. It looked pretty much like the pics on the website. So, that was a wonderful surprise! We unpacked and went downstairs to check out the hot tub, because it had been a long drive and I was really looking forward to a good soak. I was very disappointed to find that it was not working. We left to get something to eat, at a nearby Whataburger, then went back to the room. (BTW, almost everything is about 5 minutes from the hotel) The beds are comfy, pillows are okay. The blankets were thin, but were very warm. The overhead fan was really moving some air. There was a microwave, a small empty fridge, TV w/remote and enough channels to keep anyone entertained. A cabinet with three drawers is provided for foldables. There was a small desk with a coffee maker, an iron and a small closet with enough room for severafoldable. The bathroom is large enough to move around without bumping into anything. The sink and counter are large enough for whatever kind of toiletries you may have, unless you're a Kardashian. There was also a hair dryer in a bag. The shower, while spacious, is a bit on the pitiful side for water pressure. I was under the water 5 minutes before I got wet, which made rinsing a chore. The workout room has a treadmill, elliptical, stationary bike, and a 4 station weight machine. There was also a yoga ball and mat, a water cooler, a TV, and a drop box for sweaty towels. I used the treadmill. It was a little squeaky. I also checked out the leg station it was pretty good. My wife checked out the elliptical and she told me it made a few noises, but she was using ear buds and it didn't bother her. We also checked out the dining area and I can say that during our 3 day visit, there were no muddy floors, boot prints or nasty looking offerings as had been reported in some other reviews. We sampled the free breakfast. We found it to be a typical hotel offering. The menu changed day to day, so there was no worry of breakfast boredom. I will say that when I went down at 6:32am on a Friday, the pastry trays that had been filled at 6:00am were almost depleted, (a construction crew came down about that time) the scrambled eggs, sausage crumbles and potatoes were at good levels, the cereals were full, the waffle station was clean and well stocked and the juice stations (3) were cold. Our 13yo grandson had tried it the day before and he was pleased with the pastry and cereal varieties. Just a side note while I'm talking about food, we did not try any of the Mom & Pop restaurants in the area, we just stuck to the places we knew, (Whataburger, Pizza Hut, McDonald's) so I can't really speak about local dining. Overall, our stay was great. The hot tub issue was unfortunate, but nothing is perfect. I hope that what I have provided helps.

“was an allright stay but expected far more”

The beds as usual in the USA are super comfortable. The breakfast was allright - you always find something better in other places but you are not going out empty stomach.

The beds as usual in the USA are super comfortable. The breakfast was allright - you always find something better in other places but you are not going out empty stomach. A smart TV would be great or the possibilty to plug in our devices and stream. Wifi was working good. We had problems with our first room - we had a connection door and our neighbour was unreasonable loud. Luckly the lady at the reception changend us the room. But there the TV was not working - we had to wait for an technican (was very helpful) to sort it and we lost over an hour for that. And than the shower was not working either - nearly no water came out of it - but we couldnt be asked to change again the room - to tired and too much hassle and effort.
