the hotel itself was fine but the pool let it down big time!!
the pool was extremely dirty! the water was green with a oil like layer floating on the top of the water.
the pool was that dirty that we wrote dirty on the steps of the pool under the water level with our fingers. it was like a green algie like dirt.
the pool water circulating pumps were only switched on, on our third afternoon sitting beside the pool!! when the owner and a member of staff came to the pool area, they both looked at the pool and said somthing in there own language then went to pool control room and turned the pool water circulating pumps on for the first time during our visit!!( our third day)
, the memer of staff took a water sample away with him and on his way out looked at the water at the shallow side were the pool steps are, bent down and rubbed his fingers onto the steps and obviosly realised how dirty the pool was!
we departed the hotel the next day but made a point of checking to see if it had been cleaned overnight, as the obviously knew it was dirty, but NO IT WAS STILL DIRTY but the words we wrote on the step had been rubbed off.
we asked for pool towels and were given ripped and holed pool towel,see photographs .
we noticed that every afternoon that there was a funny smell in the pool area. we think the smell comes from behind the hotel carpark where there is a mobile home trailer park with a "FARM" next to it! it had about FIFTY goats,pot belly pigs,normal pigs,hens ducks, geese,giant tortoise ect ect. we think this is where the smell came from. at times it was over powering!!
the corner of the "FARM" where it started was approx. 60 feet from the pool area (walking over the next properties carpark), and it covered a large area.
a few eating places in walking distance beef o'bradys,chineese buffet, located a short walk away next to a large walmart store dollar store ect. also nearby was a mexican restaurant where the locals ate, that was a great meal.
the hotel is situated on a busy highway.
hotel itself was clean the pool let it down, we could not decide where the smell come from , was it the farm, the large open drain situated by the pool or the pool water?
breakfast was basic but manageable, and the staff where friendly and polite.

Hotel was clean and cheap. Location was convenient on road into town from Jackson and into town the next morning for our cruise but in what appeared to be a sketchy area. Staff was ok, front desk clerk at night checkin didn't log our late checkout request so day manager called at exactly 11 am and was somewhat rude, but let us stay the extra hour.

The room was just the right size for us. The beds were very comfortable and the room decor was very nice. It had a flat screen TV, enough storage and closet room for two people. Small fridge and microwave were great and helped us to save money from eating out all the time. Nice carpet and very friendly staff. I will stay here every time we come to Mobile!

coming from the uk, i enjoyed my stay at the Bestwestern Hotel. The room was extremely clean and tidy and was very comfortable.
The staff were very friendly and approachable and the room service was very efficient . An added incentive was the swimming pool, clean and well maintained,
the only negative view that i have is the fitness room, although i wasnt there for a training session, the room had minimal equipment.
