This hotel is absolutely outstanding! The lobby is beautiful and very well kept but the best part is the amazing staff. They really went out of their way to ensure our entire vacation was worry free and awesome. They gave us a great rate on an upgraded room to accommodate our oldest child who is disabled and checked on us... More

Our son’s wedding reception was held at the Best Western Premier on 5/10/13. We could not have had a better experience. Dana, the Catering Sales Manager, was the face of the Best Western for our families for several months and, most importantly, for the day of the wedding reception. We can honestly say that Dana, her staff, and the Best... More

Great Priceline Express Deal for a nice secluded King Room. Very comfortable bed and location was prefect. If you are a lite sleeper, you may want to request a room away from the highway. Noise did not bother us but I could see it being a complaint for others. We would certainly stay here again if our travels require an... More

I have stayed at so-called 5-star hotels from Los Angeles to Houston, Charlotte to Dubai, and none have rivaled this hotel chain's step up from the consistently good BW's. From the front desk staff (sorry I didn't make note of your names, but every one of you were friendly and professional) who arranged a poolside room for my family in... More

This hotel well exceeded my expectations for the star level. Very clean, updated rooms. Friendly and efficient staff. I got an amazing rate on a Priceline express deal. My one complaint- they began playing the lobby/entrance area music pretty loud at 8:30 am and it woke me up. Make sure you get a room far from main entrance to avoid... More

I was driving across the country; Harrisburg was a scheduled stop. I enjoyed my stay! Got this hotel on Priceline for a good rate. Hotel itself is older, but the rooms are modern. The wifi is not the best, and breakfast is not provided. Parking is free though I checked in late in the evening. The manager, Stephen, was at... More

Having stayed at Best Western facilities over the years, we expected a certain level of cleanliness, courtesy, etc. and were pleasantly surprised with the exceptional service and the overall experience at this one.

I picked this Best Western as it was on the way home from GA to ME. Also due to the amenities. I chose a king bed, whilpool room for my wife. I also asked for a pool side room.
