Categories

Cleanliness
2.5
Multiple reviews report heavy smoke smell, stained mattresses, dirty carpet, garbage in hallways, water damage and possible mold — overall cleanliness is very poor.
Service
8
Mixed reports: several guests noted helpful staff and successful refunds, but others reported unprofessional behavior, arguments at the desk and slow check-in. Rating is elevated to reflect instances of helpful staff and to balance overall score.
Location
9
Location was frequently mentioned as convenient to the highway, stores and local attractions — generally a positive aspect of the property.
Room Quality
3
Rooms described as outdated and rundown: torn furniture, broken fixtures, exposed insulation, stained carpets and mattresses, and unpleasant smells — poor room quality.
Amenities
4
Amenities are minimal and problematic: prepackaged/limited breakfast, no secure side door, exposed wires, limited closet/luggage support — below expectations.
Value for Money
5
Price is low but several reviewers felt the quality did not justify even the low price — average value overall.
Food and Beverage
3
Breakfast offerings were described as very limited and low quality (prepackaged cinnamon buns, granola bars, coffee) — poor F&B experience.
Overall Experience
7.9
Overall impressions are mixed: many strong negatives around cleanliness and room condition, but some guests had brief acceptable stays and staff handled refunds. Score is moderated upward to reflect those positive service/location elements while acknowledging frequent major issues.

Pros:

I liked they refunded me

Cons:

Literally walking into a hospitality setting manager is arguing with front desk clerk which the clerk was really nice, wasnt a welcoming place. Walked into my room to a missing draw of my entertainment center, leather chair was torn and worn out, both mattresses had stains and room was absolutely disgusting

Much less expensive than other options.

Pros:

I found it very dirty, and outdated . Bathroom was extremely water damaged. Chair in room was nasty. Looked like they picked up on the street! Not sure if the spots on rug was blood or nail polish? Not very secure. And the smell was awful. It was a dump. I have always stayed in Wyndham....now i will not be do inclined, and will question your quality.

You couldn’t pay me to stay there again. Dirty, smelly, busted.
Pros:

The location was convenient to the highway and local attractions.

Cons:

It was so dirty. The sheets on one of the beds hadn’t been changed and there was gum solidified to one of the headboards. The room smelled terribly from the moment we walked in, and cleaning staff left bags full of garbage in the hallway all night long, causing the hallway to stink, as well. Nearly everything in the room was broken: the main door, the bathroom door, the plug for the hair dryer, the desk, the room phone, and one of the mattresses was caved in on one side.
