Dear Michelle, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review about your recent experience at the Best Western in Downtown Phoenix. We appreciate all feedback, as it allows us to make improvements in our operations for future guests.

We do our best to accommodate all requests, but due to limited availability during the week of your stay, we were unable to swap you into your preferred room for your entire stay. Thank you for your comments relating to our front desk and housekeeping operations.

Hi Ayedh, We appreciate your feedback. I am sorry to hear that you were unhappy with your experience at our hotel property. It seems that there is a misunderstanding of our hotel property policies. Upon further investigation, I was unable to find a reservation under your name, however being familiar with the incident that you are describing, I'd like to provide clarity on these incidents. Regarding the room type change; Your brother's original reservation was booked for one bed only via a third-party booking website. Please note that at our hotel property, we are unable to alter any third-party reservations due to contractual agreements with these booking agencies. If your reservation was booked and prepaid via a site that was not BestWestern.com, then the hotel property agents are instructed to redirect you to the booking site used for any reservation changes, including adjustments to dates, room types, and rates. Making these changes without the third-party approval is a violation of policies at our hotel property. Regarding your item in room; After reviewing camera footage per your request, it appears that you returned to the hotel property one hour after turning in a guest key.

Unexpected parking fee charged without prior notification
Business reply on Google
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Your feedback is important to us in order for us to provide exceptional customer service. In regards to your feedback, our daily parking fee is located on our website, as well as many 3rd party booking sites such as Expedia and Priceline. The front desk is required to inform all guests of this fee because they have to register your vehicle on our registration form as well as provide a parking permit to guests with vehicles. Each guest has to sign this form agreeing to the parking fee, pet free policy, non smoking policy, and the early check in fee. If you have any further questions please feel free to contact the hotel at 602-452-2020. -Management
Front desk staff was aggressive and threatened police over late checkout

Hi Guillermo, Thank you for taking the time to share your recent experience at our hotel. We value all feedback, and I would like to address some of the concerns you raised in your review. We did have rooms ready at the check in time but not near each other so we placed you and your guest in the rooms that we had available. It was the request at arrival for specific rooms that would have caused a delay to your check in and I do apologize if there was a miscommunication with that. When a guest has more than one booking we try our best to have them near each other even when not requested but unfortunately based on our occupancy we could not accommodate that on the date and time of your arrival. I would also like to clarify our hotel's check-out policy. Our standard check-out time is at 11:00 a.m. We understand that there may be occasions where guests may need a bit more time, and we usually try to accommodate such requests when possible. However, in your case, it appears that you checked out considerably later than the designated check-out time. Although I do apologize if the manner in which our staff member communicated the urgency of your departure came across as aggressive. It is

Thank you for your feedback Robert. I don't show a reservation here for you at our property. Was it booked under another name? I would like to see why we wouldn't allow you to cancel. We do have a 24 hour cancellation policy and if booked through a third party that may also have different rules. I apologize for the inconveniences this has caused for you.
