They will rob you
I would give no stars if it were possible. STAY AT YOUR OWN RISK Imagine my surprise when i got home and found a charge for $125. They charged me that amount for 2 stained towels. Yes i used them to clean up a spill, but figured they would appreciate the fact that i cleaned up the mess. I don't know where they're shopping if they are paying $60 per towel. Also, checking with other hotels they were surprised they would do that as it isn't normal practice. If i can't get a refund i have requested the towels to be sent to me, as i have already paid for them, so they are holding on to stolen goods. Not surprisingly i have yet to get a response from them. I will take them to small claims court if i don't receive the towels. We also had to wait to check in as the person behind the counter was on the phone dealing with a customer complaint. Maybe this is typical for them. I have been traveling to this area for the past 14 years for 3 days of shows at The Gorge Amphitheater. The other hotels I've stayed at are booked solid. I'd say they were only at half capacity. I know each hotel is independently owned, but I have also reached out to corporate so they know what's going on at this location. AGAIN STAY AT YOUR OWN RISK

The staff was amazing. They went above and beyond to listen to our concerns and make sure we got a room that suited our needs. However, the hotel room needed work. 4 lightbulbs were out, pillows were small and hard, the desk chair was threadbare and the room had an odor to it. Worst of all were the two dirty homeless men who came in high on drugs to the breakfast room, dug through much of the food items and plastic utensils, touched everything in sight and loaded 3 plates each with food, filled their pockets with all the biscuits, and took 3 coffees each. We felt unsafe and did not want to eat there. Although we would like to support the new owners and stay there again, our stay was quite unpleasant overall.

The rooms are very outdated doors need to be replaced the paint ir stain on the doors in the bathroom are dull faded/ carpet is coming up and severely stained/Walls are thin you can hear everything from the next room. Got no sleep due to man in the room next us cursing out someone on the phone on and off from midnight to 430 in the morning and it was such foul language, and racist probably some of the worst cursing I have heard there was no sound proof. The man was so awful I didn’t want to call the desk because I thought he might get Violent with them so I minded my own business. This of course was not the Hotels fault but the doors are heavy and very loud when they open and Closed as this man kept going in and out all night long as he was on his phone. I visited this hotel about 5 years ago and nothing had changed as far as it being outdated.

The room had an offensive odor and it was obvious they tried to cover it up with air freshener. The carpet was old and stained. The odor caused my sinuses to clog and I had a difficult time sleeping. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and professional. The breakfast was good. The showe pressure was fantastic! Maybe a different room and my review would be better? Not sure I want to chance it!

The bathrooms are smallest I have seen, you can barely stand in the area, keys dont work have to go down constantly to get a new key, Breakfast area was very unsanitary smells like dog poop. We had beef mixed into our eggs, dining space for breakfast for the entire hotel is smaller than your room. Save your money, go to another hotel.

Best Western? More like Worst Western
I'm not trying to be savage with this, I just want to be honest so other potential guests know what to expect. The property was pretty run down and dirty. Located right behind the train tracks and on a busy street, the neighborhood was not nice. First thing we noticed was a horrendous stench in our room. Not sure what it was but it was coming out of the AC unit. The room was pretty dirty, stained and damaged furniture, stained carpets, dirty walls and toilet. Second thing we noticed was that our patio door was actually damaged and didn't lock properly. The pool was disgusting. You don't even need a key card to get in. It was littered with dirty towels, trash and abandoned swim toys and a broken patio umbrella. The hot tub was dirty too and maybe 5 degrees hotter than the pool. The microwave was uncleaned, splattered with food. The refrigerator made a ticking sound all night and there were electrical sockets that didn't work. Weirdly enough, there was no place to hang a hand towel by the sink in the bathroom. For some reason this hotel had decent ratings (comparatively speaking within Wenatchee) but I understand why it's such a good price. All things aside, the bed was clean and comfy. Sorry to say I cannot recommend this hotel!
