What guests think

Best Western Plus Glen Allen Inn earns praise for friendly staff, convenient I-95 location, pet-friendly policies, and generally clean, spacious rooms, but reviews also note inconsistent housekeeping and facilities due to ongoing renovations.

Common drawbacks include a dirty or unusable pool, broken ice machines, noticeable smoke or musty odors, and maintenance issues like sluggish drains, peeling tubs, or finicky TVs and Wi‑Fi. Service is largely welcoming, though a few guests reported overbooking or room‑assignment errors, limited compensation after a late‑night fire alarm, and uneven follow‑up. Overall, it suits quick stopovers where value matters more than polish.

Very easy to find, lots of parking, easy check-in, comfortable bed in a spacious room, plenty of outlets for charging devices, hot shower, nice toiletries, coffee maker in room. My only complaint is that the bathroom door had some sort of very sticky substance on it.

Lobby sitting area inaccessible, full of huge boxes. Fitness room & business center locked & not usable. Carpets in hallways & room badly needed vacuuming.Discarded furniture outside in various locations. Several tall plants in pots - all covered in white fungus & clearly dead. Just another indication of unkempt hotel. Definitely not up to usual standard of a Best Western Plus. Room itself was acceptable, except for carpet & non cold fridge. Breakfast ok too. Wouldn't stay again though.

The pool was filthy all 4 days we were there and I don’t see anyone come to clean it. I stayed here purposefully so my son could utilize the pool. A waste of money as I could’ve stayed at another location and their pool was clean. For my son to walk to the pool and turn and ask not to have to go into the dirty pool because he was concerned, do better! The customer service was ok but everyone had a different reason the pool was not changed at the time they told me it would be (no one came)

Overall, my stay at the Best Western was very nice. The service was wonderful; the woman who checked me in at the front desk was very kind and helpful, and the man setting up for breakfast at 4:30 am (before breakfast was open) brought me a bagel, which was very much appreciated before my road trip. I stayed by myself and felt perfectly safe as a woman in my 20s. The only reason I took off a star was because I had an issue with my first room, but the woman at the desk was able to set me up with a nice new room right away. I would recommend the hotel and will stay again!

I was travelling alone with 3 children. We knew we were going to arrive very late at the hotel (past midnight) therefore we called the hotel to let them know and they confirmed our reservation and told us that it was fine as long as we arrived before 3AM. We arrived at 1:30am and greeted very rudely by the night staff named Keith. He told us that the hotel had been overbooked so he didn't have a room for us. Even after showing the confirmation number and letting him know (and showing him) that we had called to confirm, he still refused to give us a room (said he had 2 left) and was very rude. He didn't even help to find us another hotel nearby. I was basically left stranded alone with 3 kids with no hotel room at 1:30am...all of the surrounding hotels were already fully booked so ended up sleeping in our car which was quite a frightening experience as a woman alone with kids!

The stay was ok except for the front desk assigning my room to another guest and they just walked in since their key worked. Also had a visit from the front desk when I was in the shower and because I couldn’t answer the door they proceeded to swipe their key and try and enter my room. Thankfully I had the deadbolt on.

The management and staff we encountered were all very friendly, genuinely polite, and thorough in their work. We immediately felt relaxed and well taken care of, even after arriving tired and cranky late at night. The room was super clean, the beds were very comfortable, and the bath towels and bed sheets looked like new. But the best part, especially for a light sleeper like myself, was the extremely quiet AC unit! The breakfast was great as well - in both quality and options. We stayed at Best Western Plus Glen Allen Inn for 1 night on our way back from a college visit. We felt welcome, safe, and relaxed. I'd love to go back and would definitely recommend this hotel!

My husband and I were traveling with our dog, and this was a one night stopover. We were extremely pleased at the quality of our stay! The receptionist was friendly, helpful and accommodating. She worked hard to get us a room that would be convenient for our dog. She also gave recommendations on events happening in the area. The room was clean, and the beds were comfortable. The breakfast was definitely above average — in addition to offering eggs, sausage, and hashbrowns, there was a waffle machine, a yogurt machine, oatmeal, cereal, numerous baked goods, fresh fruit, juice and an upscale coffee machine. We will definitely be bookmarking this place, and anytime we are traveling through, we would stay here again!
