What guests think

Across recent reviews, Best Western Gaylord earns consistent praise for clean, comfortable rooms, friendly staff, and a convenient location near the interstate, with a popular pool and hot tub that add value for families and road-trippers.

Common drawbacks include an aging building with uneven maintenance—reports of hot tubs out of service, overchlorinated pools, broken entry doors or ice machines, key-card glitches, and occasional noise from thin, creaky floors. Breakfast feedback is often positive but can be inconsistent, with occasional shortages, limited choice, or a cramped area at busy times. Expect a straightforward, budget-friendly stay focused on cleanliness, convenience, and friendly service.

The door in the middle of the building was broke. You could exit the door but not enter it. The ice machine was broke also on the first floor. If you wanted ice you had to go up the stairs to the second floor to get ice

The facility was clean. There was a second sink outside of the bathroom, which let two people clean up at the same time. The side parking was limited and a bit "industrial". The breakfast was very good compared to similar motels. We\'d stay again.

Overall the stay was great. The staff were super friendly and went above and beyond. We were in a Jacuzzi room. The Jacuzzi could have been a little bit cleaner than it was when we got there. Actually, the entire room could've been a little bit cleaner. It wasn't nasty or anything. Just a dirty cup left next to the bed on the ground between the bed and table. The bed and pillows were super comfortable. We would definitely stay again.

The walls and ceiling were paper thin and creaky. I stayed for a night hoping to sleep after a long drive. Unfortunately all night, the people above seemed to be awake and walking around, which because of how thin and old and creaky the floorboards were felt like someone was thumping me on my head. It was impossible to ignore and you have to have been there to believe how unbelievably loud it was. Everything else from cleanliness, room size, amenites, to staff, and the breakfast was great!

The staff was very friendly and thorough upon check in! The lemon ice water in the lobby was kept fresh and was a such a nice perk! The hot tub was perfect and the staff was kind enough to leave it open a few minutes longer since we were a late check in! Greatly appreciated!! The breakfast had many options, was very tasty, and kept well stocked!! The woman in charge was excellent! The room was the cleanest hotel room I’ve been in, in a long time! It is obvious housekeeping takes their jobs seriously!! Thank you very much! We will definitely stay here again!!

Well, room rates suddenly changed from a flat rate per day to a variable rate after I booked the room, not unusual. But the complete lack of maid service, inability to get a clean towel or new bar of soap is also a problem. Upside was that breakfast okay and the front desk help was nice.

Well, we were given keys to a room that was occupied with a couple in their bed with beers in the room which my son walked in upon. And then while complaining to the front desk, my partner was threatened to have the police called upon him for complaining about the service. Absolutely horrible experience and we checked into a nearby hotel for the night.

We were very happy with our stay. Check in was easy. Our room was nice. Beds comfy. Nice TV. Enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Breakfast room was AWESOME. The selection of foods were impressive. Honestly, we are used to pre-packaged muffins, cereal, maybe fruit. This hotel offered hot sausage patties, eggs, biscuits and sausage gravy, juice, and the usuals. The lady who took care of the breakfast room was VERY PLEASANT and stayed on top of everything. I also felt the housekeeper w/ the baseball cap was very polite.
