Guest Reviews of the Best Western Plus Coquitlam Inn

Stayed here for three nights with a minor girls softball team. Rooms
were very good, and having suites was excellent for team meetings and
gatherings. Staff were excellent in arranging rooms for my group and
were great in trying to accommodate room arrangements on short notice in
the middle of summer.... not an easy feat.
I would highly recommend this hotel for groups travelling with children
and teens.

Our family would love to see Diana Stemler win employee of the year as
we strongly feel she has earned it, here is our story.
Since August 04,2010, with the exception of one week, our family of four
had been on an extended stay at the Best Western in Coquitlam, BC as we
are involved in an insurance claim due to a flood in our home. We were
staying at the hotel right up until the morning of Friday October
01,2010.
The insurance company representative that we were with, as well as the
adjuster whom they hired from another company, phoned Diana on or around
September 30,2010 to tell her that they were no longer paying for our
stay in the hotel as of September 13, 2010. Diana thought this was odd,
as well as unprofessional, to only give a family less than one full days
notice and then tell them they were to pay for a good portion of their
own bill. The extended stay is supposed to be covered until our home is
completed and in a liveable state, which it still is not.
Diana told us not to worry, that she would go to the top person of our
insurance company if she had to to straighten things out. You can
imagine the distress of being out of your home for two months while it
is being demolished and then supposedly repaired to its original state
(this has yet to happen, not sure if it ever will). This was traumatic
enough, and then we were told we had to pay a huge bill which made
absolutely no sense. We felt traumatized all over again. Our quality of
life had been so deeply affected in such a bad way by the insurance
company’s representative as well as the adjuster appointed to our
insurance claim as these people showed us no empathy, dignity or respect
in the midst of a situation that was not our fault.
Diana went to bat for us and we got news in the morning/early afternoon
from her that she had talked to the insurance representative’s boss and
told them she would never dream of treating her customers this way. The
end result was our hotel bill was taken care of by the insurance company
and Diana made us feel that we mattered.
Diana Stemler treated our family with compassion and empathy, making us
feel we could trust big businesses again. Diana Stemler made us feel
like we were family; the Best Western Family is a good family. Thank you
Diana from the bottom of my heart

clean, comfy bed, close to skytrain, fridge in queen bed room, tons of
room, reasonable size tv, wi-fi, no smell. Only minor thing for me was
no windows to outdoors (they look in to a large atrium area with
fountains, pool, greenery - nice enough ) and access to room is from
outside. Again, overall very happy.

We stayed at this hotel for a family reunion and stayed in one of there
suites. The suites had a nice kitchenette and cold sleep 6 people
comfortably. Two private rooms and the living room had a pull out couch.
The rooms were big, clean and comfortable. The hotel has a great
pool/hot tub area that we used a lot. There is tons of parking and the
hotel is located minutes to the Trans Canada Highway, and lots of
amenities around including a mall and grocery store. The room service
was great to, the Pantry was great for breakfast and dinner and they
have another steakhouse as well. Highly recommended for all types of
travelers. Very reasonable rates and great value! A+++++
