"I had a bathroom set up for assisted needs and it was perfect. Great shower and water pressure, super hair care products, huge easy to understand TV, good hot breakfasts, and the room felt homey and large. Very quiet even though it was right next to 101. Soundproofing must be good. I almost always choose Best Western for the way they accommodate dogs even though I did not bring any this time. I still enjoy seeing them around."
