This hotel should be condemned. It's reputation is known in the area for broken windows, prostituti
Pros:

This hotel should be condemned. It's reputation is known in the area for broken windows, prostitution, and drugs. It's rundown and should be an utter embarrassment to the "Wyndham" name! We advise they be taken off of any travel list of choices. My Husband turned on the bathroom light and cockroaches scurried from the walls. We immediately requested a total cancellation and refund. We told the locals and the feedback was horrid.
