Best Western Bowie Inn Suites

This hotel was not safe… there was a scorpion in the pool, in the hallway there was an outlet that I feel could have caused harm to someone and the shower chair in the handicapped bathroom was broken. There were bugs and the window didn’t close all the way. I canceled my other reservation, not going back plus the breakfast food was pretty nasty.

We had a good stay at the Best Western in Bowie TX. We were served by a very nice and helpful lady at the front desk. The room was spacious and overall clean. Bathroom was top and had all the necessary amenities. Breakfast was also class “A”. Eggs, meat and all other regular items. The hotel is not in a quiet area, traffic noise all day and night. At night it's very disturbing ( we were on 3rd floor). Beds were comfortable. Would return here if in the area.

I made a reservation for a Friday/Saturday night stay and was quoted a price of $121.49/night. Around midday Saturday we decided to stay an extra night. I asked the desk clerk if the room rate would be the same for Saturday night and was told 'yes.' However, when I checked out, only the first night was billed at the $121.49 rate. The other 2 nights were billed at $134.99. When I spoke to the desk clerk, she said she'd have to get with the manager, and he would decide whether to refund me. I was told later that week there would be no refund. I was given a bogus email address when I asked for the manager's contact information to discuss this matter. Nice. So, I called the corporate office for Best Western. I was told they contacted the manager at that location, who confirmed I was charged correctly. I don't know how I can reserve a room at one rate and be charged whatever they want to charge upon checkout. So that was my last visit there. My son just moved into the area, and I'll likely need someplace to stay once a month or more. But I'm going to go somewhere where they honor the quoted price for the reservation, even if I have to drive a little further to get there.
