The first room I was given had not been clean. There was a McDonalds bag and sodas in the nightstand and table. When I questioned the room I was told the previous person left as after being in the room an hour.The second room was barely clean. I am very surprised Wyndham has their name attached to this hotel. I would never stay there again.

Pros (+) I liked the location/ proximity to where we were going. I also appreciated that it had a fridge where we could keep our soda/ waters cold.
Cons (-) I didn't like how unkept it looked. Our room had an old leather couch that was all worn out. I would have preferred it to have no couch/ the space empty than to have the old / dirty looking leather couch. I also found it odd that it had an ironing board but no iron, and coffee packets but no coffee pot. Breakfast was very limited.

Anonymous, Mar 2016
Pros (+) Close to other hotels and restaurants
Cons (-) Can't upgrade any reservations made online. The room, with a king bed, was extremely small. I had to ask for towels every day because they didn't leave any. The place, inside and out, looks like it's falling apart. Guests were shady looking. Other amenities were nearby but this place is clearly on the wrong side of the tracks. I wish I would've spent the money to stay at a different hotel.
