I was a little put off at the entrance. I think because I am used to a big entrance on the street. This is tucked sort of on a side street. Once I found the registration desk, the staff was friendly and helpful. The corridors are long and I was way on the far end. I found this tedious as... More

I recently spent 4 nights at the Longbranch Hotel while in town on business. I was a little concerned driving up and walking into the registration area but when I got to my room, I was pleasantly surprised. Good sized room, clean, comfy bed and very quiet. I didn't use any of the facilities or eat in the restaurants so... More

The website photos look nothing like the hotel. The rooms were old and dirty. The halls were old and dark. The restaurant was horrible. The servers and staff were outside by the front door smoking half the time as we drove in and out. We used Priceline and they treated us like 2nd class citizens because of it. The food... More

I would like to apologize that your stay at THE BEST WESTERN PLUS Longbranch did not meet your expectations. I would like to address a few of your comments. The pictures posted to our website were just taken in January and are professional, untouched photos. I personally inspected the lobby carpet which was installed new three years ago and did... More

I have been staying at the LongBranch for business almost once a month, in the past year, even though the company I work for would have no problem paying for a much more expensive hotel in CR. Number one strength of the hotel is the staff. The most friendly people I have met in any hotel. They are genuinely friendly... More

We come to Longbranch once or twice every year! It is a great get away especially during bad weather because you can go swimming, play pool, go to the bar, sit in the atrium and read a book or play a game, go to a fabulous dinner and never have to step outside! The rooms are average but clean and... More

Our organization hosts various meetings and events throughout the year at the Longbranch. The hotel staff (especially the Sales Manager) is wonderful to work with every step of the event planning process. Our requests are always taken care of no matter how small or large our event is. The food is great and meeting rooms are nice. More

Thank you for taking the time to post your comments on trip advisor. I like your comment "good luck finding your room". We do have a unique layout which is why each guest is given a hotel map at check in. The addition of refrigerators and microwaves has been very positve for our guests. Thank you again. More
