Best Western Plus Fillmore Inn & Suites
The room was spacious, very clean and so quiet. The breakfast was great every day and much to choose from. The staff in the breakfast area were friendly and helpful. My trip was stressful as it was a death in our family but honestly my stay here was such a plus and made it manageable.
