It certainly is convenient to the Hard Rock Casino, but I found it a good enough place to stay while attending a convention in downtown Tulsa. That said, although my visit was pleasant enough, there were some real weird quirks about the hotel. Not having a nightstand on one side of the bed, one of those weird sliding doors that either opens a closet or the bathroom and then a shower without any shelving whatsoever to rest anything on. Still, it was clean and couldn't complain much about it.

This was a great surprise. Very nice place, super clean, super friendly staff, very convenient location, and free shuttle back and forth to the Hard Rock casino across the highway. The rooms aren't really designed for a lengthy stay, but it's do-able. The only things I didn't care for were the half glass shower wall, which allowed water to splash outside onto the floor (which I felt bad for the maid) and the backlit mirror over the sink was too dim for my liking, I wish I could have made it brighter. But I would definitely stay here again.

The hotel was lovely, nice atmosphere. I found it odd that there was no bedside clock but that is just my preference.

The rooms are great. Big, spacious, and clean. The price was excellent. Less than what I have paid at previous places on my trip. The only problem was, the little guy at the desk said that they don't tale cash. What??? I mean, I gave you a credit card to keep on file if anything got damaged, but you can't tale my $100 dollar bill. Whatever, I paid him and went on with my life. That was the only thing that was off. Other than that, this place is great.

I'm usually an IHG guy 99% of the time, but they priced themselves out of sight this time because of special event in town. Anyway, I was surprised by the Glo. Hotel was very clean, well kept. The rooms are a decent size, with nice beds, and nice size shower. The lamps by the nightstand hang a little low (you'll see what I mean if you stay here) but not a huge deal, just odd. The fitness room is one of the nicer ones I've used at a hotel. It's very well kept, with nice equipment so you can exercise while on the road. The Best Western Glo is a nice place to rest, and the price is great. Hopefully they keep it up, and I'll definitely be looking for more of them when traveling. I would reccomend the BW Glo in Catoosa, OK.

Checked in 1150 p.m. and Kumar was there to greet us with a great personality and put us at ease. He made the breakfast food and set the next day for the guests. Very clean and modern/contemporary furniture, interior seemed brand new but he said it was not. Nice styling of room furniture. The breakfast could use better choices of food especially those with diabetes but no fault of the hotel. It's standard fair like most. Eggs were tasty. Tesla destination charger 48 amp. Model Y charging speed 34-38mph. One other type charger both located next to the front door makes it very convenient. They don't get very many EVs so this might be a good option. Will definitely stay here again traveling through Tulsa and highly recommended.

We are on a month long road trip and have driven across the whole country. We stopped last night to stay and was very pleased. It's beautiful, modern and clean. It's is one of the eat ones we have stayed in! The bed was comfortable and clean and the pillows were soft. Great breakfast! If I am in the area again I will stay for sure. I highly recommend this hotel!

This was the 1st time that we stayed at the GLo in Tulsa-Catoosa and it was a great experience. We have stayed at the GLo in DeSoto, TX and it was a pretty good experience. We are Best Western rewards members so we have stayed in our fair share of Best Western branded hotels. This one has all of them beat! The size of the double queen room was big enough we could use our queen blow up bed for the kids, so we could fit 6 to this room. The bathrooms were also quit large, so multiple people could use the space at the same time. The modern design of the entire hotel, feels like a boutique aura. We loved that the room also had the same feel, with unique styles in the bathroom vanity, shower area, desk area and the sliding mirror closet door. We took photos for inspiration of our forever home, lol The breakfast was the icing on the cake. Everything that was served was fresh and tasty. They even went so far as to wrap the fresh fruit in saranwrap to prevent cross contamination between guests. How smart is that?!?! The dinning area was very welcoming and clean. I almost forgot, they had charging stations on the high top island style table where you didn't even have to use a cord to charge your phone! We loved this hotel and we can't wait to stay here again next summer whenever we make our trip from Texas to the Midwest again.
