8 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Quincy that stayed in October 2013It was actually better than good. The Best Western Dockside was very clean and comfortable. Quiet as well. The reason I couldn't give it an Outstanding is because to use the pool you had to go outside to get to it. Not the best option in cooler weather. Other than that, excellent!These comments are from a verified stay
