The staff was so unprofessional. I walked in to check in and they’re blaring rap music. I had no idea who the receptionist was as he was standing on the other side of the counter singing and dancing. I requested late check out. Verified it at check in and received a PHONE CALL at 10am as a “reminder that check out is at 11” when I stated I had late check out the lady on the phone said “and who verified that” when I said the person who checked me in she demanded I describe them so she could contact them and reprimand them. The place was dirty. Room signs broken off and all over the floor.

Good for the price

Hotel was good for the price. My room was clean with the exception of an open bar of soap in the shower. Staff in the lobby was very attentive. The breakfast for purchase had SOOOO much food for only $10, I split it and saved some for later which helped keep my travel costs down. Hotel was very quiet in Mid January so I don’t think there were many guests.

I would not stay here again. None of the amenities - restaurant, bar, gym, etc were open. No room hairdryer, safe, towel bars, or waste basket. In room Keurig did not have creamer, sugar, or stirrers or napkins. At least it had a bed and a bathroom.

Sketchy

Reservation was for the Wyndham but the hotel is actually the Holiday Inn. No explanation was provided when I said I was confused by this. The only Wyndham sign was a banner attached to the side of the Holiday Inn building which blew off by the time we left. Employees were always asleep, playing cards or watching shows on their cell phones when we went by. The toilet didn’t flush in our room, so we moved to a different room, however garbages were never emptied and sheets were never changed. Upon leaving the hotel, my young daughter and I were approached by someone outside of the Holiday Inn/Wyndham front doors asking us to assist with rolling his weed. Also, one elevator was not working and there was a restaurant that was never open.

All the signage said Holiday Inn inside and outside the hotel. Listing was incorrect - no breakfast was available on-site. Kind of weird that very few other people seemed to be staying at the hotel, and a fuse box was open on our floor. Staff seemed friendly.

Stay away

This was the worst experience I have ever had at a hotel. Provided credit card for incidentals which apparently didn't go through. Was woken up late at night saying that it needed to be fixed, we were in bed and asked if it could be dealt with in the morning. 7am wake up call to rudely tell us to come down and fix the problem. Room was prepaid so no fear of us skipping out. We said we would be down, then loud banging on door by security to evict us. My wife in the shower, two kids in room and treated like a criminal. Spoke to manager who said there would be a credit which never happened. Unbelievable experience.
