It seems guests had to check-in before 12:00 midnight else they charge for another day. Even though I did online checkin. According to Wyndham rules you have to be physically at the property to not lose 1 day stay. I arrive around 2:00 AM they made me pay 115 again for the same night. I decided not to stay there asked them to cancel my second payment and stayed at another hotel. Whydham hotels business a very shady business. AVOID IT AT ALL COST.

This is the filthiest hotel interior I have ever seen. I cannot believe Expedia sold me this room. I need a refund. Dirty stained carpets throughout -- hallways, lobby restaurant, and inside the room. One elevator didn't work. Parking was easy and available. Service was ok even tho I got mad cuz they KNEW what I was heading up to. The room smelled because of the years of filth held in the carpet. Had to use menthol rub under my nostrils to tolerate the smell enough to sleep. Linens appeared clean but there were stray hairs in both sheets and towels. Got in late at night so had no choice but to stay the night before my niece's graduation. I should have slept in the rental car. The last straw was a little ROACH that ran past my feet in the bathroom while using the toilet out of desperation. Utterly horrible. Do not buy. I hope an inspector reads this.

The staff was nice. The room seem dirty and smell so bad, the walls were dirty and the windows too! We had to asked for new towels a couple of times because the once they give us had pubic hairs. It was so gross. If I wasn’t in a budget and if I had the energy I would have change hotels but i just didn’t have it in me to argue. I would never stay here again. But, i gues you get what you pay for. !

The staff was courteous and all the floors were filthy. Carpets were dirty the room something had a lot of water damage. It’s an order Hotel I think needs refurbished. We had a problem. I’m getting out of Peoria Illinois to Tampa our reservations for Tampa for the 30th, but our plane did not leave Peoria until one 2:30amin the morning, it was 7 1/2 hours late. We got into Tampap in the morning. We can only stay a few hours and then we had to be on a cruise ship, but I had to call the Hotel three times to make sure they did not give our rooms away and then they said they could not guarantee even though I had already paid for

The door lock wouldn't work for us twice. Had to get the key replaced. The door was sticky and gross. No body wash in the shower stall the bottle was empty. Mountains of cigarette butts in almost every corner of the property. It felt over all just like a dirty location for a La Quinta Inn. Breakfast was a joke and came out late. Will not be staying here again and question trying another La Quinta in the future.
