What guests think
Across the reviews for Best Inn & Suites, travellers repeatedly note serious cleanliness problems and worn, poorly maintained rooms, while some appreciate the low price, convenient freeway access, and occasional friendly service.
Many reviews also report safety concerns and a noticeable homeless presence on and around the property, with some guests disturbed by late-night activity. Common in-room issues include broken fixtures, slow or inconsistent hot water, inadequate heating or cooling, and minimal furnishings; some rooms had a microwave and fridge. Expect a very basic budget stay where location convenience and price may appeal, but conditions and environment vary widely.
