Best Western Historic Frederick

This hotel definitely has its pros and cons. Pros: Price and location. The price was pretty good, especially for a king suite (more on that in a minute). And it is very easy to get to on both the highway and downtown historic Frederick. I will also say that the hotel was clean and was continued to be cleaned every day. The housekeeping kept up with their changing of towels, taking out the garbage, and remaking the bed. I know at a time like this, some people might not like that. I was sort of on the fence, but then again, I appreciated the garbage being taken out and clean towels. Cons: Was that a king suite? It sure didn't look like the pictures. But it did have the sofa so I guess so? The bathroom was tiny. The sink is outside of the actual bathroom. But the bathroom is super tiny. It was just a room with a toilet and shower (no tub). The shower doors were hard to balance to stay open, and since the toilet was in the way, you had to get in the shower to turn the shower on, and then hop out if you wanted to let the water warm up. During this time, the only breakfast option was a grab and go. In it was a breakfast bar, orange, and a water. According to the Best Western website, it was also supposed to have a breakfast pastry. The front desk staff was friendly. I had no problems at this hotel over all. It was quiet with one exception. Our room looked at the back of the shopping mall behind the hotel, and the dumpster truck woke us up one time. Otherwise, we didn't hear the noise from the streets at all. I still would consider this hotel again. less

We used points so I can't comment on price. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. Hotel was also very quiet...I never heard noise from other guests.Breakfast is included and there is a good variety. The breakfast attendant seemed very intent on not having any extra food after 10:00. At 9:30 we had to ask her to brew more coffee and another couple had to ask for eggs, sausage & bacon. Instead of just bringing it out, she wanted to know exactly how many pieces they wanted! less

Easy parking, quick check-in. This place is relatively new so it seems that everything is in working order. Nice staff. The price was great! I used an accessible room, plenty of space. King-sized bed, comfortable with two different pillow sizes from which to choose. Quiet and good complete-room-darkening curtains. The temperature/fan is a bit difficult to control. I want it cool but I want the fan continually running. Once I needed heat the fan would only operate on automatic. Breakfast was average to good (very good by American standards); a few hot items including eggs, bacon, sausage (not really homemade), waffles, and lots of sweet choices such as breads, sweet rolls, etc. You really don't have to go elsewhere for breakfast because surely you'll find something here. If you need a home-base while visiting Frederick this is a good option (you'll need to drive to town by it's just 5 minutes away). less

This Hotel was a great find. Very reasonably priced, it was also clean, tidy, and updated with attractive appointments. The staff, Bobby, was kind and courteous. Pillows are soft, linens are fresh. There are charging hook-ups next to the bed, and the sink is a separate area from the bathroom, which is handy fir a family. There is also a fridge and a microwave, also handy for family. less

Upon check-in, I had to ask about breakfast hours. No mention of a gym on site. Was not impressed with a "no information/amenities" check-in. The room with 2 double beds was fine except when I had to use the bathroom. Extremely and I mean extremely small/tiny bathroom with toilet and bathtub. Sink was outside across from the bathroom. Did not like this arrangement. Went out to get supper and got lost in the townhouse subdivision across from the hotel!!! Frustrating, as the roads near the hotel are poorly lit. Best thing was the affordable hotel rate. less
