Scene
Pleasant mid-range chain hotel away from the beach
The Best Western has a bright lobby with a white reception desk in front of a plum-colored backdrop. A huge mosaic of a swimming mermaid adds some nautical
flair. Four gray armchairs are topped with purple pillows near computers for guests' use. The breakfast area is cheery with light lime-green walls and wooden chairs with
purple cushions. There's also a large, flat-screen TV, and a variety of seating
types including low tables, a high bar, and a small booth. Most of the guests here are vacationing families and couples.
