Categories

Cleanliness
5.5
Mixed reports: several guests said rooms and hotel were clean, but multiple mentions of cigarette smoke smell, musty rooms, pet hair/dander and aging/dated facilities reduce confidence.
Service
8
Generally positive: many guests mention friendly, helpful and pleasant staff; isolated reports of rude staff exist but are outweighed by frequent compliments.
Location
7.5
Good for its purpose: convenient to airport, interstate, bus connections and local fields/trails; not central to downtown but well-suited for travelers.
Room Quality
6
Mixed: comfortable beds, good showers and some rooms with recliners, but also reports of noisy A/C, thin walls, low toilets, ripped screens, and general wear-and-tear.
Amenities
6
Basic amenities available (pool, breakfast, parking) but issues noted — pool cleanliness/heating inconsistent, hot tub broken, some minor maintenance needs.
Value for Money
8.5
Frequently described as good value or cheap and cheerful; guests repeatedly note the price is appropriate for the offerings and useful for quick stays.
Food and Beverage
6.5
Breakfast generally described as adequate or better-than-expected for the price; isolated complaints about poor breakfast quality.
Overall Experience
4
Inconsistent stay quality: many practical positives (location, staff, beds, value), but persistent negatives (smoke smell, aging property, maintenance issues, occasional rude staff and noisy rooms) lead to a below-average overall impression.

Do not stay here. Run, far and quickly away.
Pros:

The only thing to like at this place is the front desk staff.

Cons:

The room smelled like an ashtray ... rooms had been converted to non-smoking sometime back, but as they never fully conditioned and cleaned the room properly, it stunk horribly. Checked another room, same thing. It was a stale and strong cigarette ash smell, so powerful that it even stuck to our clothes.

The bathroom (tub, floor, toilet) was not cleaned properly, with lots of other people's hair and only God knows what else.

Leaving my room to head down to the front desk, there's a Mexican guy sitting in the hallway, smoking and drinking beer. Walking down the hall, there's clothes on the floor outside doors, trash, and a woman with her door open, wailing and scolding her poor little dog who was barking madly (I assume the dog got nicotine poisoning from breathing the air here).

I get to the front desk and have the following conversation:

Me: "You know, there's a guy sitting on the floor, near my door, drinking beer and smoking"

Front Desk Gal: "Oh, yeah. He's one the Mexican guys."

Me: "Yup, he looked Mexican ....? And ?"

Front Desk Gal: "Well, he's with the repair guys, they drinking beers sometime, but I don't know that he smoking"

Then she looks at me and walks away, back around the corner to the rear area of the front desk ... as is the conversation never occurred.

How is this place a Wyndham? Feels (and smells) like a third-world slum/ghetto hotel.

Nice enough on a tight budget.
Pros:

The check in was simple. The bed was comfortable. The room was quiet.

Cons:

The whole place smells like cigarette smoke. This is definitely a low budget hotel.

Love the shower. It was one of the best we had. The king bed was nice! Very comfortable room. Really enjoyed staying there. Close to the airport. It's fun to watch the planes.

Cons:

Didn't get to enjoy it as much as we would have wanted. We needed to catch a flight.

Was just fine for what we needed.
Pros:

It was close to the Denny Sanford Center. The bed was comfortable. I liked that there was also an actual recliner in the room.

Cons:

You can tell that it needs some TLC. The air conditioner made weird noises and made it hard to sleep.
