Best Western Inn Florence

I was initially concerned about the noise of airplanes taking off and landing since it is so close to the airport. However, we never heard any airplane noise at all while in our room. Only complaint is that the mattress was a little too firm for me. less

We traveled with a pet towards the end of July 2021. They are pet-friendly; but will charge you $30 a night extra. Our dog is clean and quiet and doesn’t bother anything so we think it is a little much; but be warned. They have a bunch of warnings and disclaimers about the pet policy too. We had a whirlpool room and the tub is big enough for 2 adults … and bubbles. The tub had hers and made a ton of them. The king size bed was comfy, but you might want to bring your own pillows. I stacked 2 of the 5 and was fine enough; but when I sleep I don’t use any. TV was standard and we watched a couple movies during our down time. We were by an exit; but the noise wasn’t bad. We heard several planes too as this is near the airport - a few exits away. Breakfast was self serve and they had eggs and meat and biscuits and fruit and coffee and juice … nothing gourmet, but filling. They have a pool, but we didn’t use it. Lots of others seems to have a good time - we forgot our trunks and bathing suit and the mall didn’t have any good choices for a decent price either. We would consider staying again; but price and location will factor into other hotels too. less

As you can see from the pictures, it was dirty and not well maintained. The bathroom had mold all over the shower. I didn’t take pictures of that because the grout is dark. I didn’t ask for them to clean it when we came in because we had our dog with us and didn’t want to deal with the 10 things I saw that needed cleaning so I did it all myself with a bunch of disinfecting wipes. I did ask about the filter that was missing from the AC unit and they gave me one that didn’t fit and said that’s all they have. Also the bathroom sink/counter is very low. I’m Pros- Enough breakfast options and nice grassy area in the back for dogs. less

The good news is the bed was comfortable. The bad news is no bathroom exhaust fan. The light above bathroom sink did not work. Brown gunk on the wall around the toilet paper holder. Large hole in bath towel. No bathroom counter. Just a shelf. less

I stayed here a couple of times when it was Clarion and it was great. I was concerned when I found out it's now a Best Western because the one up the Highway in Richland is a dump and this one may end up that way but for now it's still a good place to stay. less
