No Wifi
The room was nice, it lead out to a little park. The pizza restaurant connected to it has an outside bar by a creek which just lovely. We ate at the Japanes restaurant which is just "meh". But that's typical for the area (sorry). Their WiFi did not connect to the internet and the reception staff was clueless what to do. So, no Netflix for us but mind numbing TV instead ...

Disliked: Staff & service
there was unexpected 100 fee, wouldnt take cash. Put me on floor 1 where they had a party till 2 3 am. People kept knocking on my door after I had the Do Not Disturb sign up, someone removed my sign, kept playing knocking on my door all night. Very Very noisey. If they where having a party they should not put quest on the same floor. I felt unsafe all nite because someone kept knocking on my door. Staff very nasty at the front desk, Indian guy did'nt get his name, about the 100 fee. very upset about that unexpected fee that will not be returned to me until 10 business days. Unexceptable NEVER WILL I RECOMMEND THIS HOTEL NOR WILL I EVER VISIT AGAIN. VERY DISAPPOINTED I EVEN CHECKED OUT EARLY 7AM.. WORST EXPERIENCE EVER AND IM IN PA EVERY WEEKEND. IM A LISCENSED REALITOR

We reserved a room with a balcony overlooking the creek. The day of we were told they were under construction and we had a discounted room. The room was right off of the lobby. Tiny and noisy and was eye level to the parking lot. We were disappointed because we don't travel much and I'm sure they had a better room to offer.

I love staying at Woodlands Inn. What I liked most was the cleanliness of my room. What I think they should change is the fee for the club entry. Friday was empty were the cover charge was $5 but it was only my 5 guest (good music) we returned on Saturday evening 30 min before closing and was asked to pay $10. It was a Much Better scene but should have been free or reduced for Hotels guest. I would still return. Great atmosphere overall!
