Complete mess from inside and out. This hotel is in need of an extreme renovation. The rooms were surprisingly clean but it literally feels like the building is straight out of the 80’s and could implode at any moment. You have been warned.

The staff was very nice. That's the good. The 1st room they gave me room 409, was 81 degrees when I walked in. The air did not work. They moved me to another room. There were no ice machines on the floor. I had to go all the way to the front desk to get ice. They put another customer in room 409. He had to change rooms too. The pool was under construction. My room faced a side street. Cars were rev in engines and screeching tires. Saturday morning the fire alarm went off and we had to evacuate. The amount I paid per night was too high for what I got.

Our check in was great. After that, it was downhill. One elevator was broken, no ice machines worked, our sink was closed causing the water to fill the sink, the coffee maker did not work....when i reported the issues to the desk, they looked at me with a blank stare. I thought the wyndam would do better than this.

Terrible stay, dilapidated property

The stay started with the hotel manager telling us the room we reserved “didn’t exist”. After a large argument at the front desk he finally gave us a room with enough beds for the people we had. Next, we learned on day two that housekeeping only comes “every 3-5 days”. Nice. Guess we will hold onto our moist towels. The AC didn’t work. The carpet was “moist”. The complimentary breakfast was bad breads and coffee. One elevator wasn’t working. The one that was working was on its last leg. Everything was dirty. The protected parking lot had no security (just disheveled security booths and gates). There was a full rap concert in the second floor ballroom on our second night, shaking the hotel. The delivery pizza place across the street was great, and the fireworks from the baseball game were nice out the window. Don’t stay here.
