Our Mini Staycation at Best Western in Livonia, Michigan #Review

The featured accommodations  were provided free of charge to facilitate this review, but all opinions are 100% the opinion of the Coupon Savvy Sarah family.”


My husband and I just celebrated our 17th wedding anniversary this past Saturday and we wanted to go away for an evening (child free) for mini "staycation." We never went away for a honeymoon and it isn't often that our anniversary falls on a Saturday! My husband and I wanted to get out of the house for an overnight stay so we could step out of the "home zone" and be a couple and have fun!

Best Western has very reasonable, budget-friendly rates. We stayed at this location in October while in town for a karate tournament for the weekend and it was very afforable. They had since undergone renovations in the past couple months and it looks really sharp. 

My husband and I did a little research before heading to the Best Western in Livonia to see what restaurants and other fun attractions might catch our eye. It was really convenient to have a movie theater across the street, in addition to a shopping center and a ton of restaurants in the area - both casual and fine dining. We opted for a romantic fine dining restaurant after seeing a movie and then grabbed a drink afterwards - it was perfect!



During our mini "staycation" at Best Western, we stayed overnight in a Jacuzzi Suite with a king-size bed. The room was very clean and bright. It had all the amenities you would need or want while away from home: TV, Refrigerator, In-Room Safe, Free In-Room Wi-Fi, Hair Dryer, Ironing Board and more. They also happen to have certain miscellaneous toiletry items (like that toothbrush you might have forgotten to pack) that they provide free of charge upon request. 


Best Western also has meeting rooms, a fitness center, an outdoor pool (this was closed for the season), a business center (in case you needed to use a computer or print/fax something) and complimentary breakfast.


The staff at the front desk was excellent and answered any questions we had. The staff for the complimentary breakfast was always visible and helpful. She made sure all breakfast items were stocked and replenished as needed and that the entire area was neat and clean at all times. The complimentary breakfast was delicious. There was something to suite everyone's tastes: sausage, eggs, bagels, toast, pastries, fruit, yogurt, juices, coffee, cereal and my favorite....the waffles freshly made at the waffle station.


I really enjoyed the comfort of the lobby area. It is very inviting and was a great place for my husband and I to sit in front of the fire place (which was festively decorated with the staff's stockings for the season) and check our emails the next morning.

Best Western is definitely a hotel we recommend and continue to stay at for future trips throughout the US and most certainly while in the Livonia/Metro-Detroit area.
