"Great staff, service was on point. Didn't make us wait for anything, and Valet was so efficient. Very pleased. Hotel was also STUNNING! Would definitely come back."

Best Western Plus Pepper Tree Inn

10/10 Excellent

"I have read the reviews for this property and all good things to say. The staff is very nice and helpful. The breakfast is good and plenty. The pool looks beautiful and spa worked great. The staff do a lot of this behind the scenes like painting the exterior walls so that they look fresh. The house keeping is always available. And yes they come in and make the beds and fresh towels daily. This is almost unheard of, even from the larger hotels. My room was spots every day. So many es I do recommend staying here while visiting SB. "
