the elevator was down so we had to use the service elevator which was ghetto AF then the staff was very unprofessional with loose cigarettes all over the place on the front desk and throwing trash at the security guard while i was standing there waiting for service. The front doors would only work sometimes and you'd have to push them open by hand. the room wasn't very clean either. would not stay here again.

DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY!!!

The night crew is terrible!! Due to a long drive in check in was late. Upon arrival, I'm greeted with the sight of the staff sitting on the desk and hanging out in the lobby. Now, I'm notified that the guest elevator is broken, but I can use to the staff elevator. This elevator looks like The Tower of Terror Elevator at Disney. So now I'm left to climb 6 flights with my younger siblings and all of our belongings @ 2am. Now I have arrived @ the room and guess what...Yep you got it, it's dirty. Hair and soap in the shower, dirty linens ( on a made bed mind you). When asked about switching was told no availability, but will send someone to clean the room. Ok so let's fast forward to 8am next day, no one has cleaned this room. I just drove 12 hrs and couldn't sleep nor wash my body!!! Talked to manager, which was very apologetic and surprised at my experience. Was reassured he was sending someone right away. So now it's 12 noon, my siblings and I have things to do, but remember no one was able to cleanse themselves. So long story short, lol, my siblings ended up staying somewhere else because I wasn't going to have them in this dirty room for a week.

Do not stay at this Wyndham

I was very unhappy and unimpressed with this Wyndham. We tried to meet with the manager for a discount 3 different times. Once was when we checked in. He was nowhere to be found. His front desk people were calling him and could not find him. We went back the next morning. Again, the manager was nowhere to be found. We tried before leaving for the afternoon and again, no one could locate the manager. When he got back late evening, a manager was available. We did not receive the discount. We asked for help with our bags and no one could help us. They provided an office cart (not a luggage cart) for me to navigate and fill and take to my room. The elevators were out and we have to use the service elevators. We trapsed through the offices and heard an employee yelling at their manager on the first night. It was also very warm in the lobby, the offices and the service area. Our room a/c wasn't working properly & the engineer was unavailable for our entire stay to fix ours (and other customers). The room was clean. Most of the staff were helpful and courteous. One staff entered the lobby cussing & upset and yelling. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. It looked unkempt throughout and run down. It is not a Wyndham standard, especially for the price. We spoke to other customers and they were very unhappy and were going to make calls to complain once they were home. For a $300/night hotel stay, this was not up to par at all. If I could have left, I would have.

The hotel was very old … The elevators were not working none of them. My toilet wasn’t working. None of the ice machines were working on none of the floors we had to take the service elevator upstairs. I was on the fifth floor, and my mother was on the sixth floor by the ice machine on the sixth floor, they had an army of ants crawling all over the place. I was very dissatisfied and displeased. They said we would get free breakfast and they charge for the breakfast. I would never come back to this place ever again and I would really want a full refund because we only stayed one night but it was not good at all. I went there because my son was graduating from college. This was a very terrible experience for me my daughters and my mother.
