For the price it was a fine, clean no frills motel. The bed was comfortable the bathroom was clean and the shower was an easy in/out no step up. The complementary breakfast was simple but adequate to start the day.

The worst at an unacceptable price!

I would never stay or recommend anyone to stay there. Classic example of putting lipstick on a pig! I had a bad experience in the past with Travel Lodge. I was hoping with the Wyndham ownership that there would be an acceptable transformation. $244.00 a night to stay there was nothing short of GRAND LARCENY! Advertising free breakfast consisting of bagels and weak lukewarm coffee is not is not my idea of an acceptable breakfast. A deceiving photo of the outside led me to believe I arrived at the wrong address. A floppy toilet lid that housekeeping should have addressed somebtime ago. It sounded as if the people above our room were line dancing most of the night. No Kleenex in the dispenser. A safe that I was told by the front desk is no longer functional. I felt as if I had been robbed! "A bad stain on the Wyndham name that I won't forget" Mark Huggins

Not bad to just crash

Only dropped in to get a couple of hours sleep. It was good to get a couple hours sleep. Kind of had a smell in the hallway and our bathroom floor was wet.

Good, except breakfast

The customer service was excellent…the GM reached out the morning of our stay to confirm we booked a ‘smoking’ room (we didn’t mean to, and she switched us to a non-smoking room). The room was also very spacious compared to similar rooms in other hotels. Our only complaint was the breakfast. It was very basic (e.g., bagels, instant oatmeal, waffle maker)…no eggs/sausage, no yoghurt, no fresh fruit.
