The property is in a convenient location and close to amenities, but hotel itself is not clean and obviously poorly maintained. The building is very dated and the sinks are poorly designed and extremely difficult to use. The tub is stained and everything needs a thorough cleaning.

Stayed 5 long nights, broken ice machine, dirty breakfast area - clearly hadn't been cleaned in days, broken lamp in room, dirty floors in room beside and under bed Man at the front desk was really nice and helpful, great parking availability. Does the job for a one night stay. Can't expect too much with the price, but still expected more.

Sure! Here’s an English hotel review reflecting a very negative experience: ⸻ Hotel Review – Very Disappointing Stay I had a terrible experience at this hotel and would not recommend it to anyone. The entire facility is extremely outdated, and nothing seems to be properly maintained. The air conditioning barely worked, making the room hot and uncomfortable, especially at night. The bathroom was dirty, with visible grime in the shower and around the sink. Worst of all, there were a lot of mosquitoes and bugs in the room, which made it impossible to sleep peacefully. To make matters worse, I found unidentified hair on the bath towels, which was absolutely disgusting. This was by far one of the most unpleasant hotel stays I’ve ever had. Definitely not worth the money.

Based on the price, I didn’t count on a luxury stay. But I did expect a standard of cleanliness and care because it was a chain hotel and not an independent company. I would guess no one from up the chain in Wyndham has ever set foot in this hotel. To their credit: at least the beds seemed new and clean, and staff were friendly, but I wasn’t sad to leave.

Good for overnight stay

Staff were very friendly and helpful but hotel is older and definitely needs some updating. Breakfast was alright but would have been nice to have a bit more items like some hard boiled eggs or muffins etc. Found beds a bit uncomfortable too as they were very soft. This hotel is good for a short stay only. Also found it a bit pricey for what it offered.
