2/10 Terrible

Property is good but managment is poor. Dirty and noisy place. Breakfast is terrible.
THIR BAHADUR, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Room was clean, water pressure was good. Bed was fine. The property outside of the room was run down and overgrown. That being said, all I wanted was a clean room and that is what I got. So, I’d stay again.
Daniel, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

DO NOT STAY HERE ! A slum hotel the worst place i have ever seen . I lost a $90 reservation because i wouldnt stay her because it was not safe as well as being absolutely filthy. Staff was awful this is a buy the hour type motel . I would lay on the sheets in this place for nothing . Very very very bad ! STAY AWAY !
Louis, 1-night trip

Fawad Ali, 3-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Didn't like the fine print
Dennis, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

The property was rundown. Our bathroom had 1/2 used bottles of shampoo and lotion. Only 1/2 of the pool was open and no pool towels available. We did not feel safe and ended up leaving and staying with family nearby even though our stay was non-refundable. Would not recommend this hotel even for the low price. I have stayed at many Wyndham hotels but this hotel was nothing like other Wyndham hotels.
Tracy, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Solid property should indicate ongoing renovations, broken elevator etc prior too booking. I asked & was told that my room would receive housekeeping 2 times during my 6 day 5 night stay yet no housekeeping was done my entire stay
Harry, 1-night trip

Kristine, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Ricky, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

They are in the process of renovating old, neglected property. Our room was clean. However, the breakfast was skimpy to nonexistent, the TV had no cable service to it, and the pools (inside and outside) were out of service. I would not recommend staying here until the renovations are completed. The staff is very nice though and apologetic of the conditions.
Beverly, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Driving in there was weeds and trash in all the areas! Our rooms air wasn't sufficient, TV didn't work, ice maker broken and the advertised bar was not open. In general, we had to leave because of the horrific conditions! This hotel shouldn't be advertised until it is remodeled.
Joanne, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

The beds were comfortable. The pool was out of service and so was the elevator. The staff was nice.
Stephanie, 1-night trip

Cristin, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very nice place
Aimee, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Just do not go there. Massive facility issues including a/c not working, room keys also didnt work. Not enough staff/cheap prices = chaos. We stayed an hour before leaving. When attempting to get a refund an impromptu fist fight broke out in the lobby. Just dont go. The whole area is sketchy....
joe, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Nice place with nice people
Chester, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Property appeared abandoned. Air in room did not work front desk woman screamed at me for 10 mins before changing rooms. Most rooms under construction pool is not open food is not cooked properly and unsafe to eat. We all got sick after eating the breakfast. Nothing is at appears in pictures on Expedia. HORRIBLE AND UNSAFE DO NOT STAY HERE!!!! Should be shut down and condemned!!!!
Nichole, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Would stay again!

The hotel is very secluded, and the map is inaccurate... but just keep going down the road. They're "under construction" but it is still very well maintained and there wasn't any noticeable noise.
Rosette, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The place was dirty, bags of garbage in the hallways that had not been picked up in 2+ days. The room smelled like mold and there were pieces of mold being blown from the AC unit. The shower didn’t look like it had been cleaned, so I ended up buying my own cleaning supplies to clean the room. Things were so bad, I ended up checking out a day early. Don’t let the pics fool you; this place is a dump, seriously.
Dr. Derrick, 4-night trip

2/10 Terrible

This hotel was very out dated. Horrible customer service. I had to ask for towels over and over and never received them. Her response was they don’t have enough staff. It was molded. Construction was going on in the middle of the hallways, The Pool area was dirty. I had to ask them to clean it. It’s felt like something out of American horror story!! Staff was not helpful at all. This place needs to be shut down immediately.
Melissa, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Thanks for the safe accommodation.
