Best Western Plus Bessemer Hotel & Suites

Older hotel that has kept up with some decent renovations. It's not fancy. However, it's not neglected. Room was clean and bed was comfy. Breakfast was excellent. You can make larger waffles or mini ones for the kids. Staff is friendly and helpful. Applebee's and Cracker Barrel are just across the road...easy short walk. Convenient to I-20 too.

Very welcoming upon entering the front foyer and desk, a warm and bright welcome by LaToya at the reception desk, she made you feel like family, what a delight! The room was great, very clean, towels bright and clean, all the staff was very accommodating and friendly. Breakfast was wonderful too and a very nice assortment to get your day started. Great to be across the street from Cracker Barrel restaurant after a long day of driving, a nice hot meal.

Absolutely the worst hotel stay of my life. My family of 8 arrived at 1:30 in the morning. No one was at the front desk. We waited, called the main number for the hotel and it just rang and rang on the front desk next to us. We called BW corporate, and they tried to call the hotel over and over and the phone was just ringing next to us. After about an hour, we left and went to the Red Roof Inn down the road, and shared our experience. The front desk clerk there stated that she knew the other front desk person, and after calling her personal cell several times, was able to get her to answer. We headed back to this hotel. In spite of booking 2 rooms, the now awake clerk swore we only had 1 room reserved, and charged us full price for one room (Charged twice for that room). At this point it was 3:30 in the morning. One of our rooms was fine. The other - had not been cleaned at all - the beds were unmade and there were towels all over the floor. I headed back down to the front desk and got another room - which was clean this time. My wife and kids ended up getting to bed at 4 AM because of all this. We woke up at 9 to try and get a refund on the room and eat breakfast - then my kids got yelled at by the staff for being there late - it was 9:50 and breakfast stops at 10. The manager was terribly rude to my wife - who was very understandably upset. She told me she would refund my room IF she got paid by hotels.com - Hotels.com lied and only sent a $25 credit, instead of $75

Both ladies at the service desk were super nice. The comforter could have been more clean, the "bed scarf" should be tossed into the trash. The bed was super comfortable-slept like a baby both nights and woke up with NO soreness in my back.
