The WORST hotel that I have ever stayed in. Arrived at 2:47 am on 9/5/25. Late, yes, but willing to stay. Rm#1 NO HEAT, 57 degrees outside, with the button for the heating system missing/broken. The toilet wouldn't flush. Husband repaired the toilet by going into to toilet tank. RM#2 - Lamp with blown bulb. Bathroom caulking looks cruddy with paint over it in an attempt to hide the dirt. A large fist-sized hole above the mirror. NEITHER room had face cloths. When requesting face cloths, given 2 hand towels, with the staff stating none are available
I actually never checked in. I arrived at 1am and was told they had no rooms so I was out of luck. No other hotels had rooms that night and being 1am it was hard to search so I ended up sleeping on the floor at our local office which was nearby. I have never had a hotel just tell me sorry no rooms.

Bad service bad staff hotel dirty
This hotel staff was rude in unprofessional
Reservations made more than a month prior to trip and confirmed night before
When arrived was told there were no rooms despite all of that. And they offered no help whatsoever to secure a room elsewhere
Will never choose Wyndham nor book through hotels.com again
What’s the point in having a reservation if there is no guarantee of a room
AVOID THIS HOTEL! I didn’t check Google reviews and regretted it. Receptionist seemed high, dirty floors, broken AC, non-functional bathroom, poor breakfast, useless elevator. Not family-friendly. Checked out after one night. Not Wyndham quality!
