Best Western Corona Hotel & Suites
The staff was great and the room was very nice! This particular hotel is worth staying again. Would have liked a workout room but that's not necessarily a standard for BW. Waffle making was a big hit with the kids!

No shuttle for when we needed. Had to pay way more than expected for an uber. Great water pressure! Check in with Alex went well - very pleasant.
