Good day. When calling the property to arrange the airport shuttle (as advertised). I was informed that the shuttle was not available. To my fault I assumed it wasn't available due to the late hour of or check in. My family then requested a rideshare. Upon arrival to the hotel the disposition in which we were greeted was poor. I requested the business card of their GM Mr. Patel to state my dissatisfaction. I posed my question again for the morning airport shuttle. We were informed that the driver was on vacation and no shuttle will be provided. I was truly disappointed that staffing was not restructured in the absence of a team member. Would I stay or recommend this property ... sadly to say not. Sincerely, Lakeisha Beach

We were there briefly before catching an early morning flight but from what I observed the place was clean and the staff friendly. The ice machine on our floor was out of order but the one downstairs worked. No other complaints from us.

The Management was always available and ever so helpful. Especially when I had a problem with my rental car that became unsafe to drive and had to be towed. The manager made sure it was done and took possession of the keys since I had to catch a flight before the tow truck was able to retrieve the car. Kudos BW!!!

What a disastrous first night in Syracuse, night clerk was rude and dismissive. Heat was not turned on in my room and it was -3 degrees that night. I turned it on full blast for 2 hours which did nothing, I called to ask if I could switch to another room with a better heating unit and was told "the whole hotel is like that". I disagreed as the first floor, lobby and hallways were warm. Tried to sleep with 2 comforters and in my winter jacket for a few hours, couldn't get out of there fast enough. I'll never use Best Western again just based off this location in Syracuse. I didn't realize they're franchised and owned by different people. Unfortunately, they lost my business because the night clerk/owner? chose to be snippy and rude instead of solving the problem.

Decent but can do better with customer service

I don’t know if $100 is the current price for a motel kind of property. The property is decent and clean, but has very poor customer service. I didn’t find the staff friendly. The property doesn’t provide body lotion which I haven’t seen anywhere else. So if you have to stop for the night and you didn’t plan it, you might end up with a dry skin the next day. The AC / Heat system needs an update. It had a mind of its own and worked per its own automatic arrangement. Breakfast is like other comparable motels, nothing fancy but you won’t starve in the morning. Timing though was only 6-9am. In winters I find it to be short.
