The property was being renovated so the pool area was not available. Otherwise the stay was okay.
Room was ok but both spa and pool where closed feel like it shouldn’t be almost 200 for no amenities as advertised

The room was very clean, the staff was great, and parking was plentiful. The hotel itself was a bit old, with a musty odor. There’s nothing the staff could have done about that.
Room 120. After checking in Monday night, we found about an inch of water all over the bathroom floor and soaking into the carpet by the door. Sink was found to have dried rust flakes and other debris in it. My husband went to the front desk to tell them about it, but the girl at the desk (Heather) said there were no other rooms on the first floor (we have two dogs with us) and handed my husband a handful of towels to mop it up. At 0515 in the morning, I heard water dripping in the bathroom, and found the bathroom sink overflowing with water and debris. The floor had at least an inch of water on it, both rolls of toilet paper were soaked and the counter was dripping over. Took picture. Put stopper back in sink and held on until the person above us stopped running water. Went to front desk at 0700 and told them what happened. They said they could not compensate us due to reserving the room on Hotels.com. Found out at that time there were other rooms available on the first floor from the night prior, and we could have moved.
The hotel was having issues with their pool at the time and had a sign stating they were closed for repairs. Had they not checked the rooms next to the pool to see if they were having problems? They should have. Poor management. Hope they sanitize the carpet and bathroom before the next patron stays there!

This hotel ripped me off. I made my reservation and paid in full through Expedia. Later that day i received an email requesting a card for incidentals. I used my cashapp card. Which they charged $1. On the day of check in my boyfriend arrived before me. They charged him $50 for incidentals. The next friend used his credit card
Hotel was obviously just taken over. Overall the place is in fair condition but needs a lot of work.

There was no WI-FI, no pool, no restaurant available and the tv cable kept cutting in and out! We had to bring up our own internet and tv box for the night! I’m also not happy with the quality of the Wyndham hotels lately. Going to try another rewards hotel!

Hotel is dated, needs upgrades and updates. Toilet running upon check-in and had to fix it 2 more times over 2 night stay. No shower soap, asked for shower soap next day, still no soap. Sink fauct is erroding at the base. Shower head puts out a minimal amount of water no matter the setting.
Check in was horrible! I paid in full for my stay a month prior to my stay. The hotel wanted me to cancel with the 3rs party vendor (Hotel.com) and pay them directly because their name was changing…not my problem! After an hour we finally get a room and I believe they gave me a room that should have not been available to any guest. IT SMELLED HORRIBLE! There was stains on the top of the bedspread, questionable spots on the sofa, the tub was dirty, the door to the room did not close all the way unless you slammed it closed and the kicker…the toilet was broken…if we used the bathroom, we had to open the back of the toilet to flush it…replace the darn toilet or fix it!! 😡 Take this hotel off yall list because it’s trash!!!!!
This hotel ruins the Hilton reputation. It’s was dingy & dirty. Stained & soiled couch in my room, chipped and worn furniture, dirty walls with stains down them, bathtub had a painted bottom with chipping paint. It was gross & felt more like a Motel 6. Will never ever stay here again.

Pool was closed. The convention center next door was closed and looks condemned. Homeless person living by the front door of the convention center.
The check in went well, Heather was super friendly. The front lobby was beautiful and well kept. But don't let that fool you!
The bed was comfortable. That's the only good thing about the room. There were several things inside the room that needs attention. The carpet was so dirty I decided to keep my shoes on until bedtime. The ceiling in the shower is cracked and crumbling and the bathroom wall had what looked like lotion, conditioner or something else? The coffee pod had a black liquid where the water goes. Which made it not useable at all.

Nice, but pool was closed without indication
Traveled to attend my graduation at Olivet.
Hotel was nice, good location, comfortable rooms.
However, I didnt like the fact that breakfast wasn't included, however, I knew that when I booked.
What I didnt know was the pool was down and had been down for over a year...no indication at all...which made entertaining several kids a challenge.
If you want a pool...call the hotel before booking, so no unfortunate news when you arrive
