Four Points by Sheraton Bentonville

When looking for a place to meet, Bentonville, Arkansas has plenty of choices.  At least ten popped up on my first Google search alone. But the Four Points by Sheraton was the one selected for my last road trip into town. And I confess, I kind of wish it wasn’t.

In terms of space and business amenities. The Four Points doesn’t exactly stand out as anything more than another average convention center. There’s wifi, meeting rooms-and plenty of common area to chat while waiting on wifi and meeting rooms.

There is ample parking right outside door. The front desk staff are available and helpful as was housekeeping.  If only you didn’t have to take a 5k hike in order to reach them.

Note to the hotelier: make it easy on visitors. Employ sled dogs.

The hotel’s gym facilities were nice, as were the meeting rooms, common areas, dining area and bar. But nothing remarkable from a convention chain standard.

The in-house restaurant a nice touch. But the menu was really overpriced given the number of dining options up and down the same strip.

Guests were spaced out well for privacy. The rooms are quiet, clean and well organized. The bathroom was also clean with an adequate number of towels to get you by.  There was a small coffee bar in the room-a little too small to meet my caffeine demands on the road, and a mini fridge.

But no microwave, what the heck?

The bed and mattress were of the average type worthy of no more description than an unenthusiastic meh.

My takeaway: nice place to meet, but stay elsewhere.
