Best Western Plus Fresno Inn

Liked our room, second floor (quiet location.) A great breakfast with lots of variety to choose from! Near freeway 41 entrance. Across from a mall with a Macy's. Recommend the second or third floor. They also have security cameras. less

Sometimes when I read "hotel has been recently renovated" I encounter a painted-over facade. But not in this case. The refurbishing was excellent and spotless! Hard to see any difference from a brand-new facility. less

We were in Fresno for the CIF cross country state championships. The race is held at beautiful Woodward Park and this hotel is conveniently located not far from the park and Hwy 41. The hotel is still undergoing refurbishment (as it was during our stay in early October). So many of the common areas are without permanent flooring. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the staff is super-friendly and helpful. The complimentary breakfast is generous (our friends were surprised because so often other hotels offer just a continental style breakfast); and the staff in charge of the breakfast room was attentive and friendly. Once the remodeling and improvements are complete, I’m sure this hotel will earn 5 stars. less

This location was a little more difficult to find than another Best Western I stayed at this particular weekend, but the location was close to the WBA Championships Competition, which was fantastic because by the time I arrived Sunday night I was exhausted. They didn’t have a room available for all three nights we were going to be in town, but because I wanted to try them out: I booked my last night in town here. Ernie at the front desk was quick, efficient, and friendly. I would like to give him a special kudos for making the check-in process after a long day quick and painless. There was construction/remodeling going on at the hotel, as noted when I made my reservation, but there were also signs at the check-in desk, at the pool area, and at the elevator area. The breakfast was superb, and was actually superior to the breakfast available at the other Best Western I stayed at during this three day trip. The hot container housing the scrambled eggs was not half-full of water (I appreciated that). The oatmeal bar was wonderful and the build-your-own breakfast sandwich bar was also nice. The breakfast room attendant was friendly and attentive while letting guests wake up gradually. The tv’s were at a level where they could be heard but did not interfere with normal conversation volume. Getting to chat with parents of band students from all over the state over breakfast was nice. When I checked out Monday morning Selena at the front desk and the manager on duty were very friendly (although I didn’t catch the manager’s name). I will definitely be returning to this property in the future. Pros: • Lower price than other hotels in the are • Great Staff/Service - every single person on their staff was nice (this has not been the case with any other hotel I’ve stayed at in the past 12 months, Best Western or otherwise) Cons: • Location was a little difficult to find (GPS got me there just fine) Possible con: • Construction is going on. I didn’t care about the halls being stripped down to concrete flooring but some people might. If you do: wait until they finish, but *definitely* stay here if you get a chance. less

I stayed in Room 210 and while the room was fine, there was a lot of street noise given its location facing E Shaw Ave and the busy nature of the road. Also, there were lots of doors slamming, including late at night. I think these were for the stairwell, which was very close to this room. Next time I'd get a room far away from the elevator and not facing the road. The hotel is in a very odd location, and several people had trouble finding it. It's tucked away off the main road behind an abandoned building that's all fenced in. Complimentary continental breakfast was filling. It's undergoing refurbishment right now so I got a welcome gift of bottled water and snacks. The small pool is part of the renovations. less
