"I Always stay in this hotel when visiting Nelson"
Best Western Plus Baker Street Inn
Best Western Plus Baker Street Inn"It met our needs and the staff was very pleasant and professional, Very clean facility. The breakfast surpassed my expectations, outstanding quality. The only drawback is that the windows in the rooms do not open so we could not let fresh air into the room. Since the room was hot/stuffy we had to run the AC all night which is noisy. We should not need to run the AC in November...How I wish we could have opened a window but most hotels now keep them sealed."
