I specifically booked this property so I could swim after a long working day, to discover pool was out of order. Had I known, I would have booked a different hotel. Very disappointing and Expedia should have noted it on the site. Convenient having a Dennys on the property and other stores close by but for price, other hotels for not much more, would have been a better option.

We booked Sandman for the pool, it was advertised as having a pool. I got my kid excited to swim in the pool and then when we went down to go it, it was closed. You should advise that some amenities are unavailable at the time of booking.

We booked at the Sandman in Cranbrook in order to have a swim after a long days driving. We were advised, after saying we were looking forward to a relaxing swim, that the pool was closed. We were not advised of this before we arrived. A couple of hours later, after a rest, I had to go to the front desk to find out how to work the tv remote. While there I said I was not happy about the pool situation and asked if we could have a reduction in our room rate. The very nice lady said as we had booked through Expedia, she could not refund, but would give us a voucher for $40 for the Denny’s restaurant adjoining the hotel. A word on the restaurant, filthy. Honestly, so dirty.

Horrible set up for bathroom. Door oppened inward making it difficult to use toilet. Nousy dog next door yipping all evening and again in morning. Our room faced railway track, train noises all through the night. Upon arrival, was told pool not operational, this was NOT noted on their website. Too expensive for the poor quality of the rooms.

Worst sandman I’ve stayed in, bottom 10 hotels.

Our room had a decent sized stain on the ceiling from the bathroom above leaking down. Our bathroom looked to have mold. Cigarette smoke smell bothered my kids and wife from trying to sleep, couldn’t leave the window open as it was large enough for the homeless to climb through. It was most evident from the bathroom, seemed to be coming in through the fan that was unable to turn off.
