My stay at Best Western The Inn At The Fairgrounds was generally good, especially in terms of cleanliness and comfort, though there were some setbacks, particularly with service. The breakfast options left a lot to be desired, but the location was convenient for the fairgrounds. Overall, I found it decent for a short stay, but there are areas that need improvement.
