My room had black mold all over the ceiling of the bathroom, probably due to the fan being broken. The floors of my room were visibly dirty with crumbs and dust. Other than that was pretty much your standard hotel experience.

I drove by and there was a whole lot if room in the parking lot, so I assume one was available. Anyway expedia said maybe O can get a waiver. I hope I can, I use expedia and Wyndam alot.

I'm sorry you were not happy with your stay. I am confused as we do have a hot tub and it is in working order. I'm sorry we were not able to upgrade your room. We only have standard rooms with 1 King bed or 2 Queen beds.

Snow and ice in the parking lot that was never shoveled, made my kids skip, fall, and get hurt. It snowed last week and it’s just laziness for not shoveling it.

Property looks to be recently remodeled. Front desk person was very friendly and helpful. For the price I was concerned it would be run down, but that is definitely not the case. Bed was very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again!

Before going to our event Sat morning we had asked about clean washcloths, we were told the room would be serviced. We came back in the evening to have nothing done in the room and had to go back and ask the front desk for clean washcloths before leaving for dinner. when we got back, the washcloths were by our door, not in a bag laying on the ground. as far as the room, it is worn, the tub was very worn and while clean, did not look clean because of the wear and tear. Mattress was overly soft and worn as well. The luggage card was dirty and stained at the base. On saturday the pool area was flooded a few inches out of the pool onto the pool deck. We took a pass at using the pool and hot tub for this reason. Not worth the price paid for our stay, we will look somewhere else next time in the area.

A really nice stay!
For me, it was a real diamond in the rough! Reaonably priced, clean and very friendly staff. The breakfast was also quite good. Should I have occasion to use their facility again, I certainly will! Thanks to all!

Pros - convenient, quiet, fabulous continental breakfast, and great dining options. Cons - Old smelly couch, lack of lighting, dried up glue on the desk, desk chair that drops to the ground when you sit down, and no quilt on the bed.

Perhaps some attention is needed.
The front desk staff was pleasant. The facilities were very run down and in disrepair. We were in our king room, the pool are and the gym facilities.... all needed attention.
