The room looked like it was setup 27 years ago, old carpet, an ancient crappy vanity, and just an overall look of neglect. The shower door fell into the shower when I tried to slide it, there seemed to be mold on the ceiling, the shower head was a patch work of some cheap replacement. The TP was worse than the cheap ass stuff at the office. The free breakfast was probably the worst I've had anywhere. I had to strain the scramble eggs, they were floating in water. The "country" gravy was basically water, pure garbage. I couldn't wait to get out of here. When I left, I let some newer, clean and nice farts.

It's located next to Valley Hills Mall and there is so much within walking distance of the hotel. Lots of dining and shopping ! We were in town for a AAU basketball Tournament weekend Downtown. Our hotel was about 17 minutes from our tournament gym. We checked in Saturday evening and the front desk reception staff were terrific. I texted the front desk prior to arrival via the IHG app and Deirdra's response was very prompt with assistance. Our room was on the 2nd Floor, so it was perfect. Quiet, Non-Smoking and fresh carpet. This hotel smelled amazing ! We settled down comfortably for a restful night's sleep. I was really pleased with how quiet our floor was despite the property being located off a main highway. We went down to the dining area for the complimentary Breakfast Buffet at 8 a.m. and the buffet was plentiful. The dining room staff are amazing. My daughter decided on pancakes, a cheese omelette and bacon. I had breakfast potatoes, bacon, pancakes, a western omelette and coffee. Everything was great. I took an Orange to go for a snack. There was hot/ cold cereal, yogurt, bagels, toast and cinnamon rolls as well. I highly recommend this hotel for your family's stay in Hickory. I look forward to returning.

She offered restaurant suggestions and even checked on me later in the evening to make sure I was satisfied with my room. I loved that the room had an Ethernet cord on the desk-such a nice added feature for those working remotely who need it. I would definitely stay here for future stays.

I didn't hear much traffic noise from the parking lot so it is likely far enough away from I-40. The water pressure was very low so that was disappointing. There were not many outlets near the desk. The only one I could find was behind a piece of unmovable furniture so it was hard to maneuver the plug in the top outlet that I didn't attempt the bottom one. The room had a microwave and a refrigerator. Breakfast was great with many options. I hadn't seen the salsa or shredded cheese before. There were a lot of topping for the waffles and oatmeal as well. Staff was friendly and actually asked what I wanted for the welcome gift. There was a good selection of tv stations. Carrabba's was walking distance from the hotel but the better non-chain restaurants are just a few miles away in downtown.

The coffee is incredibly weak, and consistently weak, so it's not just one person. Good coffee, but weak. Breakfast was quite good, if unimaginative, and plentiful when I was there. Two things about the sleeping area. First, the lighting is ATROCIOUS. Foyer light, one light between the beds, with reading lights on the outside of each double, one over the easy chair, and one minuscule desk light for the desk. The desk light wasn't movable, but since the only way to plug in my laptop was to strreeeeettttch the cord to a single available outlet, it was at least positioned where it needed to be. Hotel lighting is notoriously bad, but this was the poster boy. The mattresses are on platforms, but with no lips, so sitting on the bed can cause the mattress to shift by 6" or more. The platform is a knee magnet; I have bruises from hitting it. And the bathroom -- not bad, but the tile floor is icy (1st floor) and the water pressure inconsistent. No exhaust fan means showering with the door open or waiting 15 minutes for the mirror to clear after showering. Towels, while thin, are at least nicely sized. All minor things, but together they truly lessen the Fairfield experience I expect.

The staff has been very helpful and friendly. The rooms are clean, even if they are a bit older. The bed is comfortable. the pillows are half-size, but there were four on the king size bed. The outside ground floor rooms offer easy access to your vehicle for unloading/ loading. The upper and interior rooms would require additional walking, so plan accordingly depending on your needs. the noise level on rear (not facing interstate) was low, so this is the side to request if available.

Called the front desk and I was told there was no one on site to fix it. I said something had to be done. Front desk clerk sent cleaning woman with a plunger. Cleaning woman told me there was no MAN working that could fix it and handed me the plunger. I got it working. After THAT unpleasant experience I go to get "free breakfast for my sister and I. I didn't see the tray in my room, so I I covered it with plates, I got 1 bagel 2 pieces of toast, bowl of fruit, 2 muffins and a pastry, and some peanut butter, 1 applesauce. I got a few butters and jellies. I had to drive my car around because I couldn't walk that far. I wrapped up food and put plates on top and carried 2 plates to the car and came back to get bagel cream cheese, butter, jelly and cutlery on another plate. I dropped the Bagel. the woman stocking the buffet stood there and watched me fumbling to get the food out to the car, several staff were standing around and none offered to help me, the Buffet Police Woman only came over and yelled "That is messed up" and then said that I needed a tray and told me that that was the tray in my room was for then she insinuated I dropped bagel because I had too much food, she then told me loudly that she saw me carrying food out to the car and that there were other people wanting to eat and that I shouldn't have taken so much food. I told her I was getting it for 2 and I didn't get that much. I then listed the items, she interrupted me screaming at me God Bless You, God Bless you, you have a blessed day, she created a big scene over a dropped bagel. It was such a strange and unpleasant experience. I was in shock. It ruined my morning. I got back to my room and was shaking and upset and I couldn't even eat. It was so humiliating and she was wrong. I didn't feel well anyway, I stayed an extra night because my sister and I were not able to drive home today. Then I get yelled at by the hotel staff for dropping a bagel I am a 60something year old woman who weighs 90 pounds, I am no glutton. It was very shocking and rude. She will be the reason I will never stay at another Best Western again in my life. I will stop at another stop through town the next time in another hotel, but it will never be here at Hickory Best Western again.

I wasn't sure what to expect from some of the reviews but I was warmly greeted when I arrived and asked what welcome gift I wanted. I chose the breakfast voucher. I was provided a bottle of water and given a layout of the hotel and even restaurant recommendations. The clerk saw that I had a feather free room request so put me in a feather free room on the 4th floor in the Dogwood Wing. So this saved me from sneezing all night and was much appreciated. The hotel is older but my room appeared updated and was clean. I could tell it was well maintained. The hotel is far enough away from I-40 that I did not hear any highway noise and got a wonderful night of sleep. Noise did start in the morning from construction next door but that is out of the hotel's control and I was awake at that point. So it didn't start too early. My room had a mini fridge and microwave. The water pressure was good. I liked the safety grab bar in the shower as I did almost slip on the PVC floor when it was a little wet. The hotel has a pool and hot tub as well as an exercise room but I wasn't there long enough to use either. I didn't care for the breakfast but service was friendly. I will skip that on my return visit on Friday. I was originally booked at the Fairfield as the Marriott site wouldn't let me book just a night at Courtyard but when I checked again it did. Since I was concerned with traffic noise I decided to do another night here as I enjoyed my stay and felt welcome by the staff. Second Stay: Check in was friendly but I wasn't given a bottle of water. I was put in the Cardinal Wing on the top floor and could slightly hear the traffic at times but the fan covered up any noise. The hotel was full or almost this stay so there was hallway noise and someone woke me up at 7am, so more soundproofing would have been appreciated. But I do like this hotel and will return again.

The main reason I recommend this place is the location. You can walk to downtown to restaurants, coffee, ice cream, bars and other shops. Everything just a quick walk away! The path that goes next to the railroad is the Hickory City Walk. It's pretty nice and illuminated so we felt pretty safe walking back and fourth. The room was pretty nice and the bed was comfortable. It had a queen size bed, a mini fridge, tv, coffee machine and mugs. The floors aren't carpet so it was great! The bathroom was nice but the shower could use more pressure. They had towels and toiletries available. Our room was on the bottom floor and my husband said that you can see movement inside the room from outside because of the window when the lights are on so it needs a better window cover for more privacy. There are free parking spots next to the Inn but for some reason we were told to use the one across the street next to the Warehouse 18. Some of our friends parked in front of the Inn and it was fine. The Inn is next to the railroad so you will hear the train. When we stayed there, the last train we heard was around 9/930pm so it didn't bug us. There's a common area with a kitchen and tables. We didn't use it but it's cool that they had it. The air conditioning is central controlled so you can't change the mode. They have extra blankets available in the common area if you get cold. Overall it was a good stay. The location is really the best! Definitely coming back here next time I go to Hickory. Some walking distance recommendations: Breakfast: Taste Full Beans or Notions. Dinner: Vintage House Lunch / Bar: Olde Hickory Station Dessert: Carolina Crafted (they also sell candles) For kids: Lowe's Foods City Park Other recommendations: Food: Mas Amor Cantina, Charolais Steakhouse, Boca, Fourk, Standard Oyster Co (they had NC oysters for $1). Utterly Delicious Homemade Ice Cream and PuttPutt.
