Looking for a reasonable priced place to stay, well here it is. They take CLC card which is a corporate lodging card. A lot of hotels put you in run down rooms when using these cards, but this place did not ! Staff is super friendly and helpful. Close to great food and shopping. Highly recommend staying here..............You won't be sorry !
The hotel staff was super friendly, the rooms were clean . The pool was nice and heated would recoommend bring a towl down to the pool area because they were out of towels in the pool area everytime we went to the pool. Breakfast was good but it did go fast you had to get down there early if you didnt want to miss anything. .
We have stayed here before without any problems. Room is ok with standard stuff and breakfast bar offers great choices. However, this trip we found the room to be not as clean. Walked around in white socks and bottoms were filthy from carpet. Went down to breakfast and key would not let us back in room. After 2 trips to front desk and then maintenance taking apart lock, we finally got in to retrieve our stuff so we could leave! Doubt we will return here.
Took a chance after reading reviews on line......was not disappointed....would definitively stay again.... bed was comfortable making for a restful night and was not disappointed at breakfast.....gluten free was available. Couldn't have done better....Thanks.....
This Best Western has the best staff in the whole world! Every single person was friendly and WANTING to be helpful in some way! Check-in took less than 30 seconds. The clerk had everything ready and handed us our keys.
During a spur-of-the moment trip, this hotel was the best choice we found between Sikeston and Poplar Bluff, MO. We arrived late in the evening after having made reservations earlier in our trip. It was perfect......we were very impressed with this location!
The hotel was cool and the staff were GREAT in trying to accommodate BUT...let me tell you...if you have children please request a room on the bottom floor and away from those of us wanting a peaceful evening and some SLEEP...the room above us must have had 5,000 children jumping for hours!!! I went to the front desk, they did not have another KING available but said she would ask them to quiet down...called the front desk a little while later, they said they would take care of it, now its going on 11pm and still the amusement park above our heads is in full force...called the front desk yet AGAIN..they would take care of it...nothing changed...ended up going to the front desk...now its almost midnight...they finally moved the jumpers to another room probably to continue over someone else's head. Needless to say, an entire night of this, I could have slept in the car and kept my money!!! OH...and there was a shirt hanging on the back of the bathroom door when we checked into the room..but looking at the room it appeared to be very clean so I'm assuming it was left by the cleaning crew..I had them come retrieve it.
Though the exterior of the building is inviting and the lobby is attractive, the moment after one has checked in and takes the elevator, they learn that maintaining the beauty of the interior is a very low priority for this establishment. After mentioning this fact in an online survey I received a series of unprofessional emails from the manager. A bad experience overall.
The lobby is inviting, the staff friendly. Our room was clean and modern with a very comfortable bed. We stayed for breakfast and there was enough choices to satisfy us both. There was restaurants nearby.
I had a very good experience staying at Best Western Plus. No complaints. Very comfortable and cozy rooms. We also enjoyed the indoor pool and the hot breakfast. I will definitely stay at this Best Western Plus again!
We love staying at BWs for their great value, friendly and helpful staff, and comfort while away from home. This hotel was no different. It was very clean, the bed was very comfortable, everyone was nice. We get great value plus we are able to use our AAA card for a discount as well.
This is the second time staying at this hotel. The staff and rooms are fantastic! Staff was eager to help wherever they could. Was close to multiple job sites in the area and was close for some great food!
Arrived after 6 without reservation, good front desk service. Though close to the Interstate this was a quiet location so good night's sleep. Not too far to go for restaurant service but not in walking distance so did use car to get to restaurant.
The hotel is easily accessible to the interstate. The staff was personable and helpful, but housekeeping leaves something to be desired. There was an open can of pop in the refrigerator. There was significant dust on the stand in the bathroom. The bathroom could use a hook to hang clothes on. The room was not inviting had an almost sterile feel even though it was not that clean. The hot food on the breakfast buffet was lukewarm at best. Food selection was fair.
Best breakfast buffet of any motel we've ever stayed at. Really comfortable beds. Their cable tv provider (Spectrum) left something to be desired. Had to call for assistance twice. Because we are Rewards guests, we were given snacks, bottled water. Clean!
The Best Western Plus Hotel in Sikeston, Missouri is a great place to spend the night. The price is average, but the staff is very friendly, the rooms are nice and the complimentary breakfast is delicious!
We have stayed here several times and have always had a great experience. Friendly people, clean facility and quiet surroundings. Convenient to get to and great dining available a short distance from the hotel.
I've stayed in a lot of hotels some good and some really crappy ones, this one cost $100.00 plus tax during the middle of the week. I've stayed in some very nice beatwestern plus's for 30.00 less and was a lot nicer. It's not really dirty or bad it's just not what they think it is.
Decided to break up a trip from Chicago and stayed here. The price f the rooms was great. Beds and pillows were fantastic. All of the staff was fantastic. Themorning free breakfast was really good with a selection foreveryone
I was extremely surprised to find such a nice hotel in that area. It is so much nicer than many I've stayed at. Very clean. Would have been great if I was staying longer, then I could have taken advantage of the amenities.
When traveling from Michigan to Texas and back, we have stayed at a few different hotels in Sikeston hoping to find a winner. This Best Western is not it. The beds are rock hard - too firm for me - and the pillows are lumpy. The breakfast buffet is okay - scrambled eggs, sausage patty, along with waffle maker, bagels and small yogurt cups. The room was clean. Decor is a strange mix in the public areas. The price was reasonable but I just didn't sleep well. Seems like they are trying to update but some work has yet to be finished. But old bathroom tiles and fixtures need to be replaced at some point.
As a repeat guest at this BW hotel shows our satisfaction with our stay. Great location off I-55 interstate with close by dining in this small town setting makes for a worry free stay. Great pet friendly hotel.
We had a wonderful experience with this hotel and staff. Very accommodating and friendly. Breakfast was great. Our room was spacious and clean and the pool was warm. Best part was it's pet friendly so our boxer baby got to come!
I believe that the rate while not unreasonable, could have been less as I was traveling on business which will bring me back to this area frequently. It would have been nice if I had been informed prior to check in that this property allows animals in the rooms. I only found out as I was leaving and met an owner whose dog who attempted to urinate in the hall. In all fairness, the owner was trying to get the animal outside.
A quick stop over and the people at this hotel were friendly and helpful. I would stop at this hotel again when in the area. The over all feel of my stay was restful and the staff was very pleasant and upbeat.
Since we usually travel with pets, we have not stayed at a Best Western for a while. This was a great stay. Staff were wonderful and helpful. Room was clean and comfortable. Oh and did I say the staff were great. Would definitely stay again if we are not travelling with our pets.
Room was very clean and spacious and well kept. Great carpeting, linens ETC. Breakfast choices were many and plentiful. Wifi was good. The entire hotel was well maintained and clean as could be. Housekeeping staff are well trained.
Even though this hotel is on an I-55 frontage road, it was quiet inside. Rooms were nice and clean with a very comfortable bed. It was a good value overall. TV selection was good and wi-fi worked very well..
We were pleasantly surprised with this hotel. The staff was exceptional in friendliness and immediate attention. We had a nice large room, a comfortable bed, internet, a great selection of food at breakfast, a nice pool, easy access to the interstate, and a great rate. Would definitely recommend this Best Western Plus.
The staff was very helpful, friendly, & informative when asking for more items & asking about activities in the city. Plenty of amenities at this hotel. Love the breakfast, the room space, the comfort bed, & the fitness center & indoor pool.
This hotel was a good stop for our vacation trip. We got there late and left early. The bed was nice and comfy. The front desk staff was welcoming and efficient. The internet was a bit slow, but we didn't spend too much time online anyway.
We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Rooms were great, bed was comfy and the room was clean. TV came in great! Slept well. Breakfast was pretty typical but the juice at the bar was better than most hotels.
We checked in around 11pm at night with a reservation for king bed. Upon entering our room found the room overwhelmingly smelt of old smelly shoes, for lack of any other way to describe. We went to the desk and told them. The agent was quick to ask if we wanted another room, which we said we did. Unfortunately there were no king size bed rooms available, only queen. With no other offer such as discounted room, or change room in the morning, we asked for room spray, which agent could not find any. We went back and opened window and turned air on high, which helped enough for us to sleep. The next day we asked again about the smell and the agent stated only that housekeeping would come down and spray the room, which never happened. I am disappointed with the customer service shown to us during this 2 night stay.q
Nice rooms and good breakfast. I would recommend staying there. Water bottles in rooms along with other nice things like shower cap. Enjoyed our stay. Only thing I didn't like were pillows were too puffy for me and couldn't find one not so fat.
Friendly staff. Rooms were clean. Called directly to hotel and Willis answered and got the reservation for me. Upon arrival, Willis was very prompt and friendly. After the shift change, Jessica answered questions about where to eat and other tips on Sikeston. I will return. Thanks
What a beautiful place to stay...were contacted about 45 minutes after we left and told that a billfold was found in our room....it was my husbands and we returned immediately to get it....what great honest people !!!! We were so glad we had not traveled any further down the road before we were contacted....it was only 45 miles away !!! Super people there at the front desk and of course the room attendant who was so honest and returned the billfold to the desk immediately...highly recommend this location
The location was great for our trip and enjoyed going to Lamberts restaurant. Unit was very comfortable and staff was very helpful. We generally stay at Best Western if available when we travel. Breakfasts is always good to get the day started.
We were just passing through on a business trip in an RV and needed somewhere easy to stop to get some rest before finishing our trip home. This was a good place for us. The staff was friendly on check in. We were able to park conveniently to the door close to our room which was a plus for a tired crew.
Great clean rooms with comfy beds. Friendly staff at the reception and good breakfast. The WiFi is up to a good standard and There's free parking. We only stayed for one night and I would recommend Herbert's cafe for dinner.
Very clean room and comfortable beds. If those are your top criteria for a hotel (they are mine), you should do OK here. Unfortunately, my particular room (208) had an overgrown tree outside the window and its branches banged into the window all night due to high wind. Just unlucky I guess. The breakfast attendant removed all breakfast items 10 minutes before the posted closing time. She declined to provide more hot food and even locked the dairy items and removed the cereal before some guests had a chance to eat. Told me "it's 3 minutes til 10:00 and that means breakfast is over." The lack of hospitality was frustrating.
We stayed at the Best Western Plus, Sikeston, Mo in October. The room was updated and clean, the bed was comfortable. Breakfast was good. Staff was friendly and very professional. We would recommend this BW Plus to friends.
My family just stayed here for one night. For the price, it was a great value. The room was clean, wifi worked better than at most hotels, beds were comfortable, and the breakfast was one of the better free hotel breakfasts that we have had.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Spacious rooms with very comfortable and clean beds. Great Internet reception, and free! Very nice hotel, grounds well kept. Rooms very clean, plenty of towels and amenities.
Stay was one night only. Room as expected. No significant interaction with staff. A couple who appeared in the breakfast room gave a bad impression for the hotel. She in pjs and barefoot, he in robe, no long pants, and house shoes. They were in and out, each time going outside to sit next to the front door smoking, still in same attire. I don't think this image is good for any hotel.
Located right off the interstate hiway. Desk clerk was very friendly and helpful --- check in was a breeze. Room was clean and quiet. Internet worked great. Bed was very comfortable. Lambert's restaurant was just about 2 minutes away. Only issue was getting back on the main street --- no stop light --- very busy street.
Conveniently located just off the highway. This was a quality hotel experience. Room decor, cleanliness, breakfast, and staff were all excellent. Our family had 4 rooms, with children, and we could not have been more pleased with this overnight stay. It met our expectations for a one-night stop over on a long road trip.
The check in was great, had a little trouble with room, staff bent over backwards to make it right. Very professional people, took care of our every need. 2 ND time staying here and most definitely will stay again. Thank you for a very pleasurable stay.
Hotel was great, but if you have want to use your points, make sure they use them and add the points for staying. They told us they would use our point and get double points (they are running a special right now) and we haven't received anything and our points wasn't used.
Amazing experience from a wonderful staff... Above and beyond what I expected, especially for the price we paid. Sikeston is a small town that closes up pretty early, but it was worth it for us on our way back home from a long weekend. A quick stopover and close enough to Cape if you wanted to drive in.
I am a big fan of BW hotels. Seldom am I disappointed. The Siketon BW is a good location, quite and dog friendly. The rooms are not huge, but well appointed. I pre-paid and got a great rate. I did not notice any rooms that were any different except the pool is on the first floor and chlorine smells in the hallway. I would move to the other end og the building. Breakfast was as expected with eggs, sausage and waffles.
We stayed here one night in August. Check in process was easy and the front desk employee was very helpful. Our room was very clean, had a small refrigerator and internet was available. Breakfast the next morning was very good. The employee handling the breakfast was very friendly and kept the breakfast area spotless. Would definitely recommend this hotel.
Excellent staff. Easy check in and out. Clean and well maintained. Very fair price. Bottled water in room. Can usually depend on Best Western to be consistently good quality. We've been on the road for 2 weeks. Best breakfast yet!!!
This hotel is exactly the kind I like. A good value with friendly service. Every hotel employee I met was super friendly and helpful. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. The breakfast was good. The location is good as well, and the parking lot well lit.
Over all view of Hotel was nice and I really liked the Breakfast and lady over it on the morning 5/6/2017. She provided great Customer service, and presentation was beautiful. I cant remember lady's name at front desk ,but she worked the morning of 5/6/17 and helped us when television cable was out...still no services when we left ,but at least she tried to help.
We travel with a 20' trailer and usually check out the parking area on Google but for some reason we did not this time. The front desk staff came out to the parking lot and showed us a great place to park!
The first room we got, was a little damp and smelled a little. Told the staff and they gave us a new room without hesitation. The new one didn't have the same problems at all. Large clean rooms, a really nice bed and good breakfast. We would stay here again!
When I checked in, the reception clerk asked if we would eat out. I responded that we wanted to have a picnic in a park and asked where I could find one. Then my five-year-old daughter walked in and she understood why I wanted to find a park. She gave us a map and directed us to a park that we probably never would have found on our own. Our daughter was delighted. Our room was clean and comfortable with very good beds. The bathroom fixtures, the appliances, and the wifi all worked well. I did not see an elevator but we were on the ground floor, so that worked out for us. Breakfast was as good as any hotel breakfast and better than most. We did not have time to use the pool. All in all it was a very good stay and a very good value.
This hotel has always provided us with the best of service. The staff goes over and beyond to insure comfort. The building shows a bit of wear but the decor is well coordinated and thoughtfully comfortable. Breakfast is always fresh, hot foods replenished quickly and temperatures maintained. Cold foods also at good temperatures with a good variety of items. And always with sparkly smiling attendants. We enjoy our stays here very much.
Everything @ this Best Western met expectations. Myra @ check-in was very pleasant and helpful. The room was great. Wi-Fi was good. Breakfast was all good, except for some of the guests, no fault of the hotel Very happy with our stay there.
I had point for BW and needed to be in this town. This hotel is very quiet, the beds are fine and everything was clean. I feel like the BW brand is not as it used to be. The BW Plus is now what the BW used to be.
The value for the quality of room was excellent. Other motels were over priced. We considered moving to another town before we found Best Western. The staff gave us a map of the location of competitors plant so we didn't have to search for it out in the country. Food was good, but fruit could have been a bit better.
Beds were hard as a rock and worn down. Pillowtop? Yeah right. Found some bugs on the floor in the bathroom. Overall cleanliness w as ok. Manager was rude. Breakfast lady was friendly and helpful. She was the only part of my stay that was enjoyable.
This was a nice hotel, not my favorite of the Best Westerns, but a good one (Texarkana is my favorite). This would have received an Excellent were it not for the price increase of $100 over the regular rates just because it was near the area of the Total Eclipse. I really don't like price gouging but I had no other choice but to travel on that Sunday as I had to take my son to start university in Illinois.
Hadn't stayed in a Best Western in a long time. This was a Best Western PLUS, so decided to try it. Excellent! Great value at a great price. Very modern, clean, comfortable bed. Breakfast was great. Lots of good restaurants nearby. Hamptons, Holiday Inn Express, etc. are just getting too expensive. We are always just "passing through", and don't need to spend $150+ just to sleep.
Friendly staff, clean rooms, good breakfast, very comfortable. Would stay here again on our next trip through this area. Makes it a great place to stop because it is close to lamberts café which is a place we enjoy eating. Last year when we went thru we stayed at Drury and did not enjoy it as much as we enjoyed your location.
I would recommend this hotel very highly! The staff was friendly and so helpful and the rooms were SO CLEAN! The beds were super comfortable and there were extra towels in the bathroom. The breakfast was excellent and the woman taking care of it was so friendly and was so efficient in keeping things stocked and clean!
My wife and I stopped here on the way back from a trip to Michigan. This hotel was Clean, well maintained,safe, and our room was very comfortable. Breakfast was very good. (eggs and sausage available) Check in, check out quick and easy. The afternoon check in supervisor took the time to help fix a reservation error of mine (hotels.com) I would definitely stay there again.
This place was great. Updated and clean and friendly staff. Breakfast was awesome! It was a full breakfast not just pastries and continental. Eggs, sausage, biscuits and gravy, waffles, oatmeal, yogurt, everything!! It was a great value and for the low price I did not have high expectations. They blew it our of the water!
We arrived about 11:30 pm after a long day on the road and I was initially impressed that they had our room ready when I walked in. We were anxious to get some sleep to continue our drive the next day. The facilities were nice and we slept well until 5:18 am when another family entered our room with a key (luckily I had used the extra latch so they couldn't open the door very far.) As you can imagine this startled and scared our family very much and sleep escaped us the rest of the morning. When we went to breakfast I stopped by the front desk to ask them about this and point out that our keys no longer worked on the room. Rather than apologizing profusely or offering compensation for scaring us and interrupting much needed sleep, the clerk was more interested in knowing she hadn't made the mistake and that another worker had checked us in and was responsible for the mistake. I felt more should be done for such a grievance mistake thus bringing my review to a two.
The stay at the Hotel was very well except for the guests up stairs above our room with children, who rudely woke us and several other guests on our floor at 1am. The jumping off beds, running around the room and slamming doors for 45 min.. The father had gone down to the car to get things they needed and left at least two children alone in the room. When we had to get up early for our meeting, and then drive 7 hours back home, we were expecting a good night sleep, not woken up 3hrs later, and then try to go back to sleep after they finally calmed down.
On an extremely hot day on a motorcycle trip we found it necessary to get out of the heat and rest. The pool was refreshing a hot tub would have been nice ice and added to the value which was priced high and the reason we don't use Best Western more often
I found this listing through Travel Advisor and AAA. We were looking for a place with a reasonable rate yet clean and comfortable. After staying at a Best Western Plus hotel the night before, we knew we were in good hands. Best Western Plus Sikeston didn't disappoint. Clean, cozy beds, complimentary breakfast, free internet, and the staff was great!
very clean, very comfortable, has a pool, and the best rates in town. beats Drury Inn hands down. Sikeston is so small so it's great that there is a clean and cheap hotel that has great air conditioning. will stay there every time I go.
The stay was good but not as good as many of the Best Western Plus hotels we have stayed in. The rooms were not sound proof and the breakfast selection was not as good. It was a good location for our vacation purpose.
This is the nicest Best Western I have visited. The Staff was very nice, the room was clean and breakfast was very good. I have visited a number of BW locations and this is by far the best. I highly recommend this one.
This was a quick overnight while on a long road trip. This hotel was reasonably priced for the city and often choose this BW brand hotels. The rooms were clean and the hotel was nice. The breakfast was great, hot and fresh. We enjoyed the stay with an accommodating staff. Check in and out was easy and it was nice to be recognized by name when we turned on the TV.
When you stay at a hotel over and over because of their consistency, its a shock when you get a nasty one. I did check the rating on this hotel and it was high, I am at a loss as to how! This was obviously a recently acquired hotel and poorly fixed up. Coat of paint but the smell was of a really old place! When you pay $100 a night one does not expect grandeur but certainly not chunks to be missing from the toilet lid! Dirt and grime around the baseboards just gross. If it was not for a huge thunderstorm, we would have left. Hopefully, the owners will make this place worthy of the Best Western name.
Clean, good mattress (I have a bad back, so it's important to me.). Unlike other locations, I think the eggs were fake ones. Otherwise, economical, friendly and clean. Lambert was close by and it was a good place to eat.
Although the staff was very helpful, the room could use a makeover. The bed was squeaky, the AC did not work properly so the room got quite warm once the curtain was closed. We finally had to sleep with the curtains open so the air would circulate properly. We had to move to another room in order to get a room that was in better condition.
Friendly staff in all areas, very clean hotel all around, supplies were stocked up, and breakfast was delicious (a lot to choose from too). We will be staying here again when we return in a few weeks!
I found this hotel using AAA in Metaire LA and I stayed there for the first time last year. Ever since then, whenever I drive to Chicago and back to New Orleans I make it a point to use this hotel as my stopping point. It is neat, clean and the staff is very pleasant. In fact once you have stayed there and come back they remember you and greet you with a welcome smile. I recommend that anyone who is traveling through Sikeston and looking for lodging for the evening stay here. They will, in my opinion, love it!
They are in the process of update the carpet and rooms. I was very pleased with the cleanliness of the room. I had a large room with a King Size bed. The bed was wonderful! Comparable to a Marriot mattress. While the property is along the interstate I felt safe. The exterior needs some work but interior was Best Western Plus standard. The breakfast had may selections and the breakfast hostess was very clean and sanitary with her service. I would recommend this property. As a business traveler I would have liked to have a dedicated business center area not a counter in the breakfast room with barstools, but I used it and the printer was good.
Tgis hotel was clean, comfortable, and quiet with a very friendly staff. The breakfast was hot and plentiful with sausage, eggs, biscuits and gravy along with other typical continental breakfast options. We would definitely stay here again.
clean rooms, helpful staff, breakfast was good but the yogurt was light and my personal preference is regular, beds were comfortable. The only negative is the elevator is at one end and our room was at the other end.
Check in was easy for the most part. Asked if rate was best possible and with a couple clicks, front desk agent said she could knock five dollars off. Considering the quality of the hotel, the room rate was definitely on the high side. When traveling sometimes you have to just go with it. Hotel offers a heated pool, while warm it was clearly not what I would consider heated. When asked about it, front desk agent said the pool person had left for the day. Breakfast area was very small and could not handle the amount of people staying at the hotel. The breakfast host was nice and worked the area helping guests. Offerings were your basic quick hotel breakfast. When wanting to complete checkout the front desk agent was talking with another hotel employee so I went ahead and mixed in with the large breakfast crowd. Ten minutes later they were still talking when I walked up. Must have been a slow morning for them. When I walked up the other employee walked away. When the front desk agent showed me the bill I noticed the room rate had not been changed. As I mention this, the agent responds...what are you talking about? I say that when I checked in the agent changed the price and it is not correct on the paper. Basically with a gruff she says that it is not showing up and says the rate is what it is. I ask to see my check in papers and I can show you where the new price is located. The attitude of the agent continues to decline as she hunts for the paper. When finding the paper she looks it over and says that she can not see the price adjustment. I ask for the paper and show her where the old rate was crossed out and the new rate written down in two locations. The agent responds with...oohhhh. The night agent did not enter it in the computer and the only person who can change it is the manager who is not in at the moment. I am thinking.....it is 8 a.m., where is the manager. I asked about the rate deduction and the agent said the manager would change it and the rate billed would change. The agent said the manager would call me with the new total. The manager never called me back and the price was not changed as I was told. I knew this because when my credit card bill came the old total showed up. I called and explained everything to the credit card company and they adjusted the total. Based on the check out experience, breakfast spacing, not hearing back from the manager, and having to call my credit card I would not suggest this hotel to anybody. Granted this might not happen often, one time is to many. The lack of customer service is a major thumbs down along with the incorrect billing. Room conditions were clearly not five star. Shower was not very strong. Room did not really stink but at the same time it did not smell fresh. There was a envelope asking for tips for the cleaning staff. They did have two free bottles of water in the room. Parking is only available on one side of the property. On the positive side, hotel was located just off the highway. At the exit, you have to turn right and then another right. Then follow the curve in the road and the hotel is on the left located next to another hotel property. Not much for dining close to this hotel as it located on the other side of the highway. I would recommend staying on the other side. There is a Drury Inn/Suites over there. Lamberts which is supposed to be good had an over hour wait.
Encountered an ant problem. Contacted the front desk and was moved to another room which also had ants. When advising the front desk of the continued ant problem in the morning, they dismissed the issue as being a result of the recent rain. Breakfast items were not available towards the latter part of the breakfast hours. This is not acceptable. The hotel is very much in need of some updating.
We arrived late at night on the third day of our six day road trip, and stayed a bit in the morning, so my friend could finish some computer time with the office back home. Accommodations were comfortable, and wi-fi worked well. Breakfast was well done. It was a nice stop along the way.
My brother and I stayed here on our genealogical trip to the "bootheel" of Missouri. Breakfast was very good. The lady taking care of the breakfast area was very meticulous in her duties and always had a friendly greeting.
We stayed the Friday of Memorial Day Weekend and I believe the hotel was booked up. But it was still fairly quiet and easy to get a good rest. The main thing I care about is clean linens, no funky smells, decent towels, comfortable bed and good breakfast, and this hotel met all of these expectations.
Room was clean and the bed was comfy. The hotel staff was very friendly, and although I missed breakfast, it smelled delicious. I liked the fact that the room was reasonable, and in a convenient location. We would definitely stay again.
My family got two rooms here on our way back home from Florida. Very nice rooms, very comfortable beds, AC was kind of weird, but I just may not have been smart enough to figure it out, however the window opens, and it was a nice cool night, we were on second floor and that breeze coming in was wonderful, good free breakfast in morning, didn't use them but they have an indoor pool and a fitness center. Staff very, very friendly and helpful.
Clean room, easy check in, friendly service. Good wi fi and cable TV. Great breakfast selections front office was great. Great value. Highly recommend. Good location right off of the expressway. Near other restaurants.
We have had good luck with Best Western plus locations but this is probably one of the better hotels I have stayed in. Although I didn't use the pool of fitness. The room was clean, beds were comfortable, staff was very friendly and breakfast was great!
Come year a few times each year for work and I'm never disappointed. Audrey and her staff are awesome. Great rooms..modern decor. Beds are very comfortable and the linens are high quality. Flat screen TV. Indoor pool. Free WiFi. Very good Continental breakfast. Decent rate for a place this nice. Right off I-55. Come check it out!
My visit to Sikeston was during the flooding in Missouri. Had a couple issues when I first checked in but they were quickly dealt with by the front desk staff and management. I originally planned on staying one day and had to increase my stay for two more days. Staff and management were incredibly helpful and supportive. They checked the route I was supposed to take where flooding was occurring and kept me appraised of the road closures and when conditions change so that I could continue on my trip. I truly appreciate their concern and assistance expecially the front desk staff. If ever traveling through Sikeston I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.
Room was not as clean as I would have expected from reviews. The man working the desk in the am was more interested in his morning gossip than being polite to guests. Would have been nice to start my day off with a little more polite good morning.
Had a good nights sleep when needed after a long day's travel, and a late start. Although located near the freeway, there was no sound from it, and no sounds from outside the room to disturb our sleep. We loved our stay.
After checking in and given directions to my room, I couldn't help but notice a strange odor in the 1st floor hallway. Similar to cat urine. The room itself was odor free, but just appeared dark & old. The ice machine is across from the front desk in an unfinished , mildew scented room along with the guest washer & dryer. I decided to forgo the ice and went to local convenience store to purchase some. The exterior door closest to my room was open all night. There is a sign stating you need a room key to enter, but I don't know when that is. I just ever felt safe and comfortable. The bathroom had 1 bar of soap, which was in the shower. I was provided with 1 washcloth and 1 hand towel, but plenty of bath towels. The sink stopper did not work , and the light in the bathroom kept turning itself off & on. Got to breakfast with 45 mins left. No biscuits for the gravy. no eggs. no juice, no fruit. hard dry sausage. I don't think I'll stay here again , even though I will be travelling through here frequently.
We stayed here after a long day home from Texas. The room was so nice I actually wish we could've spent more time here. It was a corner room, really spacious, HUGE bathroom. Very clean, liked the water bottles provided - such a nice touch. Breakfast was really good and had a great variety of pastries, eggs and meat. The coffee was also excellent.
This is a BW plus so expected a little more, beds were good, room was good. However, we had 1 bar of soap and nothing else Note said complementary products available at front desk but when we checked with front desk, ( she was also very busy, it was a full hotel) she apologized and said she did not have anything and she would have to go upstairs to the supply room, but it as obvious that she could not leave the front desk as a plus hotel i would have thought these would have been provided
We stayed here on our trip and found it a very nice place to stay. Room was very nice and roomy. would stay here again.I can not say anything about the amenities as it was just a place to crash after a big meal at Lamberts.
On our way back to Michigan. Very nice Best Western Plus. Large room, clean, and comfortable. Microwave, fridge, and coffee maker. Front desk staff were very friendly and professional. Reasonably priced.
Nice hotel. Was clean and front desk helpful. My reason for rating only three stars. There are two: shower would only get luke warm and not enough sitting for breakfast. I will say the hotel was sold out. I would try again.
We were given room 108 on the night of Oct 23 . The toilet was unusable and broken; the sink had standing filthy water. The rubbish container by the side door was overflowing with food containers and caused odor and health hazard. For $90 I expect a little more.I'll never stay at a BW Plus again.
We travel with pets (well mannered and not messy) so we always have to find pet friendly hotels. Sikeston is a good halfway point in our Chicago trips and we've stayed at pretty much everything allowing pets there. This was our first time staying at the Best Western and we were very pleased with the overall stay. Staff was very helpful getting us a room on the ground floor close to an outside door to ease walking the dogs. Room was clean, bedding fresh, bathroom spotless and plenty of towels. Breakfast was typical with scrambled eggs, sausage, biscuits and gravy, waffle maker and the various cereals, fruit and yogurt. Coffee was excellent. The only negatives are the hallway carpet needed cleaning from what looked like muddy boot traffic and the room carpet probably needed a good cleaning as well. Otherwise, a very nice stay. We liked the first night so much we booked it again for the return trip the same week. The Best Western will be our "go to" place in Sikeston from now on.
I was pleasantly surprised during my stay in Sikeston. The Best Western Plus was pleasant and very clean. Very conveniently located right off the highway. The community is nice and very friendly PLUS you always have Lambert's and their wonderful fried okra!
We really liked the location and amenities of this hotel. The management staff was very friendly and helpful. We had requested a first floor room and our request was honored. We have stayed at this hotel for several years now and have always had great service and the service is excellent.
Excellent stay. Comfortable beds. Very clean room. Efficient and courteous staff who helped us locate on internet church for the next morning. Bathrooms clean and efficiently laid out. Just a good stay.
This by far is the friendliest Best Western we have every stayed. They cannot do enough to make you stay comfortable and are very accommodating to making your stay enjoyable. We stay here often and look forward to returning soon.
This hotel was very clean and up-to-date inside and out. It was very small but fully-loaded with amenities: indoor pool, microwave, refrigerator, access to computers, free breakfast, free wifi, fitness center, laundry room, and a mini snack area. It's also somewhat secluded where it's located but very close to food and shopping!
The website says that this hotel has been renovated. They may have renovated the rooms , but the carpets in the hallway are absolutely filthy. The first room we were put in room 124 absolutely reeked from smoke scent. The hotel is supposed to be non-smoking. We were able to get a room change and the second room was better. The lady at the front desk knew of the room smelling of smoke. She should not have put us in it to begin with. Very glad we are only here one night.
We had requested a handicap accessible room and we were pleased with the room. The breakfast menu was very good and the selections would fit almost anyone's appetite. Check out was a breeze. Our stay there was a delight and we will be sure to stay there again. If there are other travels in the future I will check out Best Western first.
Front desk staff was very helpful and cared about us. The entire staff was customer focused. The breakfast was good. Very clean. Location earned the "plus" designation. We will stay there again if we are in the area.
exelent the only thing i dont like the breakfast star at 630 am to late for me i have to leave at 6.00 rather than that every thing is great the service the staff at front desk very frendly i will recomend this place
Stayed one night. Did not have reservations but was able to get a room with king size bed at 11pm at night. The gentleman at the desk was very helpful. Our room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good with scrambled eggs, sausage , biscuits, yogurt, pastries, cereal, waffles, and lots of coffee!
The staff at this hotel were awesome. From the gentleman who checked me in on Sunday night, to the housekeeping girls and breakfast attendants. Room was clean, breakfast was great. Other booking sites were much more competitive than going through hotel website. Lesson learned. Not many hotels in the area.
Stayed here for one night, on the way to Arkansas, Hotel staff was nice and helpful, and the have a hot breakfast in the morning, the price was competitve for the area, and would deifinitly recommend this hotel
We stopped here on our way back from Louisiana. Overall, everything was okThe main drawback was when we woke up in the morning there were ants crawling all over the desk. We were in a hurry to get on the road so we just packed up quickly, grabbed breakfast and headed out.
Fast, friendly Check in (booked Online) Exceptional Rate for a Hotel of this quality. Room was larger, Clean. Indoor Pool. But no restaurants close by. Security and well lite. Would recommend staying here!
Clean, comfortable beds, friendly helpful staff, hot breakfast including eggs and sausage. Indoor swimming pool. Located right off the interstate and just down the street from all restaurants and anywhere else we'd need to go. Price made this stay the best choice for the value!
My brother and I were checking in to The Best Western Plus together but with separate rooms. Because we were basically paying double the receptionist gave us a nice discount. She also worked hard at finding rooms that were cleaned already so we could go to our rooms even though it was before check-in time. She was great!!!!!
We probably would have passed by if we weren't staying in the area to visit family. It doesn't look like much on the outside but you won't get a more comfortable night sleep anywhere else! We once again had a handicapped room with roll in shower. We were so pleased to see that this room matched the previous night in another city. I didn't exactly love the decor but the bed is comfortable, the air adjustable, with plenty of room to maneuver and the ability to plug in your power chair next to the bed, if Best Western can get it right, why can't other hotel chains?
Second time staying at this hotel within the last year. It still is a great hotel. All staff that we incountered were very friendly. Hotel was clean and updated. Wifi was better than average for a hotel. Breakfast was good and nice selection. Room rates better than other surrounding hotels. Will stay here when in area.
Was a big fan of BW Plus. Have to rethink that now. Stayed here once before. Remember it being a decent place to stay. Room smelled. Had a very humid feeling in it. So much so that the carpet felt wet. And they need to get their bedsheets someplace other than the $2 sets from Dollar General. Body was sticking to these pitiful sheets. Had stayed at the Drury 5 years ago. Wish I chosen it.
We stopped off here on the way to visit family in Illinois so we could eat at Lamberts. The hotel was nice. The beds were a bit too firm, but that's not unusual. Front desk staff was friendly. The breakfast was a mixed bag. Omelet, yogurt, and cereal were good. The waffles was terrible. We figure it was a bad batch of batter. Pool was pretty cloudy so we didn't swim.
The hotel staff were extremely helpful and friendly. We had a great room and was very quiet. The location was convenient to other attractions. I would recommend this hotel to other people. You must eat at Lambert's while you are there-it is a unique experience.
As soon as you walk in the room smells musty and was very damp. There were stains on the carpet which had not been vacuumed. We had to request that it be done. Did have a few ants on the bed. Breakfast was average. Would NOT recommend this hotel to anyone.
Clean, comfortable room right off the highway. Staff are helpful and friendly. Breakfast area offered a good variety of seasonal and customary foods. Price for the value is a little high for this part of the country.
This place had everything. location,quality and friendly staff.The property was well maintained and clean. The rooms were very nice and they offered a better than average breakfast. My room was very clean and everything worked just right.
This is a very nice hotel with a good breakfast. I had not looked at the map closely until after I made the reservations, so I needed to change our stay from 7 days to just one. In the morning, I talked to the manager who was very gracious and helpful. I was able to make the change with absolutely no problems. I would highly recommend this hotel.
We were on our way to Chicago and needed a place to stay along the way. This hotel was very close to the interstate and easy to access. The room was very spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable. The breakfast was your typical hotel breakfast but it was the cleanest I have ever seen! The staff was very friendly.
The room was extremely humid. We had the a/c on 65. The pool was way too cold for it being Indoors. It's smells like mold everywhere. The breakfast area is too small, and there are not any restaurants in walking distance. The beds are hard, and the tv kept going in and out. We are so disappointed. Its maybe worth $40 a night not anything more.
The staff was nice and breakfast was fine but our room smelled moldy. It was so gross and my eyes and throat are burning. There were moldy stains on the curtain. I considered leaving and just driving home where I could sleep in comfort.
Personal at hotel were very friendly and helpful. Recomended a wonderful resturant for dinner very friendly and helpful. Location is easy to get to from the interstate and easy to find from the interstate. Would use this hotel again if in the area.
From the time we entered the front doors until checkout the staff was so very friendly and helpful. Audrey Hileman checked us in. She made us feel at home and answered our questions about places to eat nearby. Hotel was very clean both in the lobby and rooms. We will definitely stay here again.
A little mix up at check in with the credit card we wanted to bill for the stay, but Mira the front desk clerk was very helpful and though I was irritated and tired from the road, she remained calm and helpful and smiled. Turned out to be okay-no mistake made. Mira also provided a bottle opener when we discovered we left ours! Toilet in room worked but rocked a little and the seat would not stay up. Breakfast was average but the host in the breakfast area was very friendly. Room on first level smelled of bleach and dampness.
A perfect place, experience, and stay at a great price. Having read all the many positive reviews in TripAdvisor, I felt confident in selecting this motel on our trip to Saint Louis. It was very, very nice, clean, quiet and comfortable. The desk clerk was super friendly and the lady working the breakfast was the best ever. Super hospitality.
We stayed here as a convenient stop on a road trip. It provides everything you would expect from Best Western. It is a fairly new facility with indoor room entry, clean rooms, comfortable beds, hot showers, continental breakfast, and friendly helpful staff. Be sure to eat at Lambert's.
Unfortunately, we were fool by the photoshopped photos! The building itself is not in good condition! The room and halls were musty. The walls and fixtures in the room were dirty. The room was humid/damp even with the air set to 68. The pool was freezing, tiny, and the deck was extremely slippery. Long story short... Spend the extra $25 to stay at Drury or Peartree if you want a comfortable over night with your family.
Checked into hotel last night, first room we walked in and immediately noticed ants on the bed and night table. Told the front desk and they finally agreed to change our room. Didn't see any ants before bed in the second room. This morning when we woke up we had ants in our bed, on the walls and in our bags!! Had to dump bags out in the bathtub to try to get them out. I am currently in the car (45 min from hotel) and between my husband and myself we have killed 11 ants on ourselves! Must have been in our clothes still. We told the front desk this morning and all she said was that she would tell someone. Not happy with how they handled the situation. We should have packed up and moved hotels after we saw the first room!! Now we are taking the ants home with us! With bites and all!
From the Manager to clerks, room service and breakfast the finest crew ever in any Best Western I have ever stayed. Stay often and will continue to. Look forward to coming back. Feel like family. Location is convenient and breakfast is presented well and of good quality. Only hotel tell I have stayed in which offered soy milk which I prefer.
My husband and I stayed here on our way to the Indy 500. The hotel was very nice, the rooms were clean, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Even though our room was right by the stairs, everything was very quiet. I would definitely recommend staying here!
Stale odor in room upon arrival. Not terrible, but noticeable. Bed and bathroom were clean. Carpets in need of deep cleaning. Lots of stains in hallways. These things were all noticeable, but could be overlooked. The real problem was when people checked in to the room above us at about midnight. The noise woke us both up and we are not really light sleepers. It sounded like elephants were caving in the ceiling. This went on for over an hour. They finally settled down for a few hours, but were up again at 5AM. Not a good night if they were walking across the floor, we could hear it.
Came to Missouri to the Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Bloomfield MO where our father is buried. Sikeston offered an area for restaurants and shopping. Best Western has become my chain of choice because of the options the provide. Sikeston's hotel provided a wonderful stay both the hotel and the staff.
We just did an overnight stay here we have been on the road for over a month so appreciate a nice quiet night sleep we had a very comfortable bed in a nice room staff was very accommodating and helpful. They have traditional motel breakfast which any traveler becomes acquainted with. LOL. I need a mobility handicap room which we had a very nice one able to negotiate very easily in. Our room was quite nice
This was our 3rd time staying at the Sikeston Best Western. The building and rooms are nice and the breakfast is better than most hotels. We'll be back! The only problem we have is parking. We have a large truck and trailer and there is no space to park our vehicles. We have to park at the nearby store and truck center and walk a short distance.
We spent the night here after a day in St. Louis. The room appeared fresh and clean. Upon entering the room it had a odor of stale cigarette smoke. The had not been with a large group of students I might have asked for a different room. The ozone machine either wasn't used or the odor is in the carpet. The faucet and tub chrome was old because appeared heavily cracked or scratched. The breakfast is typical as other hotels offering, scrambled eggs, waffles,sauasage, donuts, rolls, bagels, biscuits and gravy. If I was to be in this area again I might stay here again.
This hotel was very clean and staff was very helpful. The room were very clean and bed was very comfortable.. The breakfast was good and hot. This was the second time I have stayed at this hotel. Just like first time my stay was really great and would recommend this hotel to anybody.
After almost four hundred miles of driving, my wife and I were more than ready for our planned stop and the Sikeston Best Western Plus definitely fitted the bill. We were checked in quickly and found our ground floor room easily. Although the downstairs corridor looked rather scruffy and in need of some attention, our room was very clean and the two queen beds were comfortable. Breakfast was adequate although nothing special. All the Best Western staff that we spoke to were absolutely charming and could mot have been more helpful. The free wi-fi worked well and the cost of the night's stay was certainly not expensive at $100.32.
I'm pleasantly surprised with this hotel. Bed was comfortable and bathroom was adequate. Two things I especially like: air conditioner fan stays "on" to provide white noise, and very good TV with excellent channels.
Everything was okay. The room was clean, etc. and as expected from Best Western. The beds were appreciated as they were not the super-high ones suffered from on some recent stays at comparable chains. Breakfast was good, as expected, and the attendant cheerful and helpful.
The staff was very friendly, and checking in went very smooth. Our room was very clean, and beds were comforable. The pool looked nice, but didn't use. The only complaint was the halls ways needed a good vacuuming. Maybe they were broke? Breakfast was good. They had my favorite yogurt Chabonni. Coffee, waffles, eggs, sausage were available. Would stay again if an area.
I was traveling with a group of nine students on our way home from a competition. All of our rooms were extremely comfortable. The attention to detail on amenities from the towels at the pool to shower heads high enough for tall men to enjoy was fabulous. The breakfast left a little bit to be desired except for the wonderful fresh fruit and the waffles but everything else made up for it.
This is the first time in quite a while we have stayed at a Best Western. We did so because of the social media reviews were quite positive. Overall, it was a very nice stay. Easy check in, nice clean room, and good breakfast. Would stay there again anytime.
Needed a place to get a good nights sleep and this fit the bill. The bed was comfortable and the area is quiet. Good breakfast to get the next day started right. Typical fare, but was hot and well stocked.
Great location, great staff, awesome breakfast the next morning. Only problem that we had was the cable and internet went out the morning we left. We did make a tip to the the breakfast attendant, which was to use a shaker for the cinnamon that is used for the waffles. Renee, on the front desk when we checked in was very polite and professional. Loved the free bottled water and a bag full of goodies, since I am a Rewards member.
Our roon was very nice and clean, the breakfast was great the nice waffle machine was great we had a great rest after a long day of traveling, the hotel was quiet We ate dinner at Lamberts Café that's a must to do to when your in the area so I recommend you stopping their for dinner also.
very nice hotel and staff was very polite and helpful. the room was very clean and cozy. the air worked great and the bed was very comfortable. the overall appearance of the hotel was very inviting. we enjoyed our stay there and would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a nice, clean, place to stay for a night or many nights.
We stopped at the Best Western Plus on our way down to New Orleans. We arrived after 11pm and left the next morning at 7am so we weren't there for very long. The check-in process went smoothly and quickly. The rooms were nice and comfortable. It was nice that they offered free bottled water, Wi-Fi, and breakfast. The breakfast was very good.
Staff very friendly and check in was fast and efficient. Breakfast was one of the best I have seen at a motel Very clean place all around, from room to breakfast area. Very close to Lambert's Cafe which is a destination restaurant. If you are in this area STAY HERE, you will not be disappointed.
I come up once a month to visit my son who is in SECC in Charleston. That is 10 miles from Sikeston. I get to in Charleston on Friday afternoons at 1:00 and my visit starts at 2:30. Since I spend the night I get to visit Sat. Mornings also. Since I live 4 hours away. the rest is healthful and helpful.
I stay here every week for work and have never been disappointed in my stay. The staff are great and the rooms are comfortable. The location is not the best and the parking is a little small for my Semi but they do a good job trying to accommodate for me. I would recommend this hotel.
from our front desk welcome, to a suggestion for dinner, to fresh water in the lovely room and spacious surroundings, this was a very pleasant stay. If possible on our trip back South, we will be stopping here again
Freshly baked cookies when we arrived, pleasant helpful front desk, large room with comfy beds, not brand new but clean, large bathroom, shower pressure was NOT Good!!! Breakfast was very good with a nice selection. Pool looked very nice but we did not use it. Small adequate fitness room with tvs. We will definitely stay again on our way through.
Upon arrival at this Best Western property, all staff members did 100% effort to make our stay comfortable. Great tips on local dining spots that turned to some of the best food we had on this trip. Great access from Interstate gets you on and off the road quick. Also a great breakfast to start your day.
Great room with fantastic aroma, decor, and amenities. Courteous and friendly staff, with sufficient hot breakfast bar, but with limited seating. Pool area seemed nice, but we did not use it. Great rate found online made this an excellent choice for a stopover on a long trip. Would definitely book here again.
Hotel was extremely clean , beds were awesome Had an issue at checkout, and the manager was more than understanding and gracious and handled our problem immediately. Breakfast room was very clean. Food was great. Would highly recommend hotel.
Excellent service. very friendly. Room was clean and comfortable. Easy on/off interstate. Nice to see bright smiling front desk staff even when checking out 5 am in morning. Nothing bad to say. Would definitely stay again!
Exceptional customer service ~ kudos to Patrick & Logan at the front desk. It's so nice to be warmly welcomed by a smiling face after a long day on the road. Room #114 was a standard double, very clean (although a child had apparently kissed him/herself in the full length mirror.) Flat screen TV with lots of channels, fridge/micro and free wifi with decent signal. Bedside table lamps had outlets in the base which made it super EZ & convenient to plug in chargers, laptop, etc. Bed was very comfortable with triple sheets and plenty of nice pillows. Bathroom was spotless with ample hot water, great pressure & bright white, fat & fluffy towels. Parking lot was well lit & I felt my vehicle was safe. Appreciated the receipt slid under the door during the night which expedited checkout next morning, Continental was standard but well tended. There are bargain priced motels in the area but a few more dollars buys a much nicer room & BW is our first choice in the area. Would definitely recommend.
We really appreciated the friendly young man at the desk who went out of his way to make us feel at home on our visit to this Best Western. The room was clean and the water was hot. This was in the middle of Winter Storm Goliath as all the cold rain passed thru so we were happy campers indeed
The Best Western Plus - Sikeston had everything we've been accustomed to expect from a Best Western ? a clean, comfortable room, a good, hot breakfast selection and courteous service. Would stay here again if we're back in the area.
I timed this stay to take advantage of my Diamond member points and am glad that I did. The manager and staff of this location exemplify the Plus of Best Western. The room was very lovely and comfortable. My King suite had a large writing table/desk as well as a couch and a large flat screen TV. The ample size bathroom was another Plus! I don't normally use a motel laundry but there are no coin laundromats near by. For $2.00 each the top load washer and front load dryer efficiently washed and dried my clothes, nice! The hot and cold breakfast variety also was quite good. This one is going on my best bet list!!
We stopped here on our way to our destination for Christmas. It's clean, spacious and the staff are very friendly! One of the best Hotels we've stayed at in awhile.. Also the Cleanest Best Western I've seen in years! We used Booking to reserve the location and we got a great deal! A little over 100.00 and it's Well Worth it ??
Decent $ value for the room. Wifi a little slower then I am use to but was OK. Will stay here again on next trip. Couple of spots in the room needed touch up with paint and a loose tile in the bathroom but nothing to make my stay unpleasant. Making reservations thru the hotel was another pleasant experience. Nice big flat screen HD tv and the fridge kept my drinks of choice very cold without freezing.
All the staff at this facility Were very very but I'm willing to help and very friendly. staying at this facility I felt like I was staying at a close friends or families house I would recommend the Best Western Inn Sikeston 2ne1 I would even stay there if I lived in town
Located right off the highway. Hotel was clean as you walked in and through out. Check-in was quick and friendly. Room was clean, so were the sheets. Plenty of towels and pillows for all four of us. Two complimentary bottles of water in the room was great! The breakfast was very nice. Eggs, bacon, biscuits & gravy, cereal, pastries and more. The lady kept the area clean and food stocked. Check-out lady was nice too. We will save this one for future stops!
In previous visits to Sikeston we have always stayed at the Drury. After checking the Drury rates and tripadvisor reviews, we decided to take a chance on this hotel. It did cost $98 which I thought might be a little bit much. It was a basic hotel. We were told upon the whole hotel had been gutted and redone. Not sure when that was done, but it did look a bit used in the hallways. The room was bright and good sized. The TV worked well and yes the remote was in a cloth bag. The beds were firm but comfortable to sleep on as well as the pillows. Towels were nice. Gentleman upon our checkin was extremely nice and helpful. We thought the breakfast was a little sparse though, but adequate. Hotel was probably one I would stay at again depending on pricing.
I don't know how this place had a high rating. The halls were filthy. The sheets had not been changed and had hair all over them. The shower tile had mold. One positive, the desk clerk was friendly and changed the bedding. I've stayed at much nicer hotels for less money.
The hotel and room were clean, but the room smelled as if someone had been smoking in a non-smoking room. Let the hotel know when we checked out. They said they would check into the matter. Would recommend this hotel to others.
8 years ago I stopped at the Best Western in Sikeston en route to San Antonio. There was a pond out front, and the ducks waddled right up to me as I exited the car, expecting to be fed. The hotel had a large lobby, elegant dining room, and spacious rooms. On this trip, I arranged to stop in SIkeston only to find that the Best Western had moved into another building. (The old hotel is now an America's Best Value.) There was nothing really wrong with the rooms or service, but it's just a cookie-cutter motel lacking the character of the older building. If you have business in Sikeston, you might prefer a newer facility like the Drury Inn. Luckily, Lambert's Cafe, one of the funkiest restaurants you'll ever visit, is still open just a half mile down the road.
We stay here every time we drive through on our way back from Texas. It's a nice, clean hotel and we always choose to stay here. Management is always friendly and the rooms are always tidy. My favorite part is they put a bag over the TV remote showing it's been cleaned. It's one of those things other hotels don't do and if you think about it, that's pretty nasty! This isn't a super nice hotel, but it has everything you need for your stay and we've never had a problem or complaint about it.
Very clean with great firm comfortable beds. Staff was friendly and capable, special kudos to the manager for providing covered motorcycle parking. Nice wholesome breakfast choices and fresh hot one at a time pancakes. Thoughtful touches like bottled water provided in room. Helpful staff
This was a great hotel! Very clean and very updated (may be fairly new) with friendly staff. Allisha was especially helpful with her restaurant suggestions which included Lambert's, a not-to-be-missed place in the immediate area. Thanks for a good night's sleep!
Was here one night and would definitely stay again. The staff was friendly and courteous, the room was well appointed and very clean. The refrigerator did make too much noise so we unplugged it as it was too late to call and get it fixed. The morning breakfast started early and was also very good.
Staff was excellent. Patrick was very helpful at check in. Young lady at front desk in the morning was very nice. Tosha was her name. EXCELLENT BREAKFAST! ! Lady in breakfast area kept area clean and we'll stocked. Rooms were nice and clean. Will stay here again.
Great service at check in. Katarious (I probably spelled that wrong) was wonderful at check in. Clean room. I haven't had breakfast yet, but I probably won't partake anyway. Still a great price for the room.
Headed down to Arkansas and had a one night stopover. Staff was friendly and fully explained the ins and out of the hotel. Room was clean and came with two bottles of water. Common areas of the hotel were clean and kept updated. Complimentary breakfast was tasty, plentiful and area was clean. Hotel was conveniently right off I-55. Have to drive to get to nearby restaurants. Pet friendly.
The hotel was clean, and the staff was friendly. Breakfast fare was tasty and plentiful. Rooms and common areas were clean an appeared to be kept up nicely. Pool was out of commision, but by the time this posts is supposed to be back up and running. The hotel is right off the highway which is a plus however you will have to drive to get to any restaurants.
Room was clean - very clean! I appreciated the little things like the 2 bottles of water waiting for me! it's the little things that mean a lot!! Personnel was very helpful and very friendly. Pleasant experience.

Exhaust tip is cleaned with Adam's APC, and looks awesome!
I haven't cleaned my car this thoroughly since the Adam's Polishes detail post back in October, 2010. There is still much to do before it's 100% show room ready, but I would say todays car wash made my car look 90% perfect! I made sure I washed every nook and cranny there was to clean on the car. I mean, I even brought out the big guns! (Adam's Polishes Products)
Tires cleaned with Adam's APC.
Tires with Adam's VRT applied.
Look at those wheels! The contrast looks Photoshopped, but it isn't! Just beautiful.
Ahem, forgive me for basking in my own glory. I am just too excited to see my car look so sexy after six months of rain, snow, salt, and, well, crap in general. The only upsetting thing was that after removing all of that dirt and grime, it revealed a lot of rock chips, and scratches produced from daily driving. =(
Oh well, nothing a little polishing and waxing can't fix =) I'll probably do that when I have more time in the summer. If you are a member on the Spades V6 facebook page, please don't hesitate to post some vanity pictures on there =D. Anyway, got some car porn for you car perverts ;) Shots are taken on a closed movie set.

This year I plan to take more pictures of the children to give to the parents, I think they will love seeing what their children are doing when they aren't with them.
I was in awe of the bravery of one little boy and his mom today as she dropped him off for his first day of school, they have lived in the US for 3 months and do no speak english.... yet. The little boy was so very scared, crying and not wanting to let go of his mother - she felt the same way and then she very bravely kissed him, hugged him and handed him to me. I tried to put myself in her shoes, could I move from here to Korea and be that brave, that trusting? Could I take that leap and do what is so hard even though I know it is going to be important in the long run? All of these parents are doing just that: taking a leap, being brave, trusting.
So this year I'll take more pictures for the parents and I'll put myself in their shoes more often, too.

Hernando to ask FEMA for sinkhole relief
Spring Hill leads the state in sinkhole activity, and it's time for Hernando County to appeal to state and federal legislators for relief.
That was the consensus of county commissioners who heard staggering statistics from the property appraiser's office Tuesday.
Since 2000, the property appraiser's office has recorded 6,106 sinkhole properties in Hernando County. Of those, 2,726 were repaired and 3,380 were not repaired.
The board agreed with a recommendation from county Commissioner Diane Rowden to send a letter to the Federal Emergency Management Agency for financial relief.
County Commissioner Wayne Dukes asked the appraiser to send letters to homeowners who have filed sinkhole claims to find out if they intend to get them repaired.
"I think we need to be more proactive than we are," said Dukes, who was surprised to find Spring Hill led the state.
Sinkholes are a drain on the local economy, and the outlook for 2013 remains grim, said Kevin Johnston, valuation services supervisor with the Hernando County Property Appraiser's Office.
Sinkhole-labeled homes continue to affect property values and, even when repaired, it brings the value up to only about 90 percent of its original value, Johnston said.
From Jan. 1 through April 19, there have been 590 sinkhole claims reported to the property appraiser's office. That compares with 852 in the same period last year.
The property appraiser assesses a 50 percent additional depreciation for unrepaired sinkholes and 10 percent depreciation for repaired sinkholes.
Dukes questioned why Pasco County's depreciation rate is 30 percent for unrepaired and 5 percent for repaired.
Johnston said he cannot speak for Pasco but his numbers are based on an annual sales analysis that determines if the adjustment is warranted or needs changing.
Rowden said the county must take action by appealing to state and federal legislators and declaring a disaster situation in Hernando County.
"Sinkholes aren't going away no matter how we ignore them," Rowden said.
Resident Jimmy Lodato said sinkhole damaged properties, even when repaired, represent a problem for Hernando County.
"Would you buy a sinkhole property?" Lodato asked. "I know I wouldn't buy one."
County Commissioner Jim Adkins said he fears state legislators won't take action until there is a large outcry. Perhaps if sinkholes became a major problem in The Villages, a population-rich development spread over several counties in central Florida, then politicians would take more notice, he said.
Adkins said it is also time to have more clear-cut definitions on what constitutes a sinkhole.
Rowden also asked the board to consider moving the citizens' comments section of the meetings from first thing in the morning to later in the day, just before the final commissioners' comments.
County commissioners also voted unanimously to have staff bring back a proposed ordinance regulating grass and landscape fertilizers, especially as it affects Weeki Wachee Springs.

Although it may be terrifying to get out of your comfort zone, it's also very exciting to start a new chapter in your life. ~ Katie Couric
Remember last week when I was whining (and I use that word most sparingly) about the job interview that I tanked the week I fell sick? Well, today I had another one with a hospital in Oakland on the same kind of unit that I used to work in back East. I had so much angst heading over there because although it's been 2 weeks since the Interview Freeze I still hadn't gotten my confidence back. I actually came back inside the house and almost called to cancel in a fit of nerves but my roomie whipped me into shape and told me to stop being a punk.
Okay...for the most part I'm not a punk. But I hate to feel like I'm an idiot. I consider myself reasonably smart...perhaps even quite intelligent, so when my brain/memory fails me, especially in situations that I should be able to breeze through, I absolutely detest the feeling. I didn't really go into details about how bad the last interview was on here...it was so bad that I came home in tears and ended up bawling all over the Fiance as I mumbled how many times I had screwed up in a 30 minute interview. I still had flashbacks about it all through the day, and the nursing questions keep playing over and over in my head.
Fast forward to today...I KICKED ASS! Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah! *doing booty shake*. There was this calmness that came over me from the moment I stepped into the office until hours later when I stood outside the pavement jumping up and down. I felt no pressure to perform whatsoever, and just talked to the Supervisor about my previous nursing experience and how I would make a good fit into their unit. He asked me far more questions than the last interview, in much more nursing depth than before as well and I nailed each question leaving him more than satisfied. The best part---no eyes boring into my skull. He was so laid back and chill, it made me more relaxed.
"Why should I hire you?" he asked me towards the end of the interview.
"Because I'm fabulous!" was my first response, which I later segued easily into a list of great reasons that Poetic Justice/Kafo had mentioned the night before during rehearsal. This was the best interview I'd ever had.
He introduced me to the other nurses working that day as Vixen, a registered nurse that will be working on their unit sometime in the near future. Say what?
Oh yeah. He told me twice during the course of the 85 minute interview that he likes me and plans to offer me a position. He is checking my references and then will forward my info directly to HR for a direct hire. This means I skip going to HR to beg for a job from the hospital, this time the hospital is coming to me. It doesn't get much better than that.
Take that, mean lady boring holes into my head with your horn rimmed glasses and PMS-ey attitude. You just lost out on hiring a great nurse. Actually---you just lost out on hiring a fuckin' fabulous nurse.

POSSUM, p-POSSUM and Cr-POSSUM, audit tools for comparing outcomes in surgical and colorectal patients on the basis of operative risk assessment over-predict mortality rates for colon cancer resection finds a study in the journal Diseases of the Colon and Rectum.
POSSUM, is the Physiologic and Operative Severity Score for the enUmeration of Mortality and morbidity.
Along with the Portsmouth revision (p)-POSSUM, and colorectal (Cr)-POSSUM, these scoring systems have been developed in the United States as audit tools to compare outcomes in surgical and colorectal patients on the basis of operative risk assessment.
Writing from the Department of Colorectal Surgery at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation and the Quality Institute, Cleveland Clinic Health System, both in Cleveland, Ohio, Anthony J. Senagore and colleagues have carried out an evaluation of the applicability of these systems to a cohort of colon cancer patients undergoing surgery in the United States.
The researchers prospectively collected POSSUM factors from 890 consecutive patients undergoing major surgical procedures for colon cancer in 9 United States hospitals over a 2-year period from January 2000 through to December 2001.
The observed over the expected hospital mortality was then compared by means of the POSSUM, p-POSSUM, and Cr-POSSUM scoring systems.
The Cr-POSSUM appeared to be the most promising audit tool for colorectal cancer surgery
The effect of missing data on the utility of this process for outcome assessment was also assessed with 3 methods for data imputation.
Analysis of the data showed that the number of resections per institution ranged from 13 to 437, with the observed mortality rate ranging from 0.8% to 15.4%, with an overall operative mortality of 2.3%.
The POSSUM, p-POSSUM, and Cr-POSSUM predicted mortality was 10.7%, 11.2%, and 4.9%, respectively.
This meant that the POSSUM and p-POSSUM models over-predicted mortality in all institutions, whereas the Cr-POSSUM demonstrated an observed over expected hospital mortality ratio of >1 in 3 institutions.
The calculations were unaffected by the various methods of inserting missing data.
Commenting on the findings, Dr Senagore observed that an apparent over-prediction of mortality for colon cancer resection was evident with all three POSSUM variants.
"This implies that a calibration process is required for use of these variants in the United States health care system," he said, adding that their analysis showed that missing data may be treated as normal values without influencing outcome.
"The Cr-POSSUM appeared to be the most promising audit tool for colorectal cancer surgery", he concluded.
"However, it will require further refinement to provide process control graphs for identification of potential outliers and improvement in the quality of care in the United States".

One small orchard is a project to try to utilise a smallish city fringe garden into a hub of nutritious fruit, vegetables and eggs. We are starting from scratch, in an everyday garden. We are starting in winter because we moved in spring and are freshly settled and motivated. Winter is a great time to start as we will be removing a portion of our front and back garden to make space for trees, vegetables and chickens!
Before - stay tuned for the progress!
We hope this project will help us live more seasonally and eat nutritionally and locally. This blog will hopefully be filled with seasonal food and recipes that will nourish, make life a little easier and affordable. It will also contain a journal of one small orchard as it develops and changes seasonally.

How Good are Filipinos at English?
Because Filipinos can speak English, they are given preference in overseas hire and are sent/invited to other English-speaking ( countries/or places that were UK colonies such as HK, USA ( lol) Canada, Singapore, even the Middle East (which was not, arguably,truly colonized, but where college education is also in English).
Filipinos have no prejudice against English as a rule, and do not equate speaking it with losing their national culture. They were quickly able to adopt English and use it very well,unlike say, the other US Commonwealth -Puerto Rico where very nationalistic "natives" practically refuse to learn it and insist on keeping shools and work place Spanish- speaking.
Curiously enough, because most Filipinos shuttle back and forth between home, the US, HK, Singapore and the ME, they often form an illusion that well, the entire world speaks English, and that English is universal. They think that places like Japan and Taiwan are strange because of lack of English fluency. This is clearly a misconception because the majority of the world ( some 65%) is still non-English-speaking, and many countries very zealously protect their culture against "the Anglo Saxon imperialism".
Most also do not know the little known fact that there are more English speakers in Asia than in Europe. It leads to funny situations where a Filipino whose English skills are poor feels shy to talk to a white person for the fear of embarrassing him/herself in front of a native speaker. But very often the white person is a German whose English is even worse than that of the Filipino, and both are now shy to express themselves, each one thinking the other to be the "real" English speaker.
Most Filipinos have never been to Eastern/Central Europe, Korea, China, Latin America and other huge areas where English is still not popular.When they do go to those places and stay there for a while, they begin to feel lonely, and upon seeing English speakers, they run to them to greet them as their brothers-in-tongue.
Because of English fluency, Filipinos seem to have more affinity with Western, English-speaking nations than with many supposedly sisterly Asian nations such as Thailand or Cambodia of which they seem to know very little.

I agree! I am a Filipino and I'd been to some parts of Europe.
that would be great..i'm a filipino and haven't been to u.s but if i speak english my sound likes an american accent.
The thing now is that, whenever you're good or should I say, fluent with English be it on British or American accent, they'll just think that you're a call center agent. Not knowing that you're living in those English-speaking parts of the world. And those call center agents feel like they're fucking living in those English Speaking country and are nowadays arrogant!
I just hope, the US will stop outsource employees on the Philippines.
Filipino accent is horrible! "Pilipino uksent is urribol!"
- UrsulaFletcher said...
Anonymous: Don't critiicize the Filipino accent when speaking English. I am British living in Asia and find it admirable that people from a 3rd world country can speak fluent English, widening their prospects of opportunity for themselves and their family. People in Uk have it easy and rarely learn another language as they don't need to.
