Our room was clean and pleasant, our stay was fantastic for as short notice as we had to get this room. The staff also helped me print something out that I needed for an event I was in town for, as I'd printed too small and they were so gracious to assist. Thank you all again for our stay, we'll see you next time we are in town to visit family.
I stay there frequently the place is always clean and the staff is always friendly

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff is helpful, had to change initial room due to mold smells big time in a carpeted room, either carpet, HVAC, or both reeked. Should replace all carpeted rooms and make sure all is clean!
Convenient location with lots to choose from to eat and a Walmart close by if needed.

Good value
We had a good experience at the Best Western Saluki Inn. Brody at the front desk was welcoming and helpful, and our room was comfortable. Breakfast was limited but tasty. Overall a pleasant stay!
Check in was quick and the beds were comfortable. Nice water pressure in shower. Breakfast was nice that we had eggs and sausage as well as cereals and juices and coffee. Nice selection and liked the waffle maker.
