The room was clean, comfortable, and nice. The area felt fairly unsafe, people were hanging outside their doors very late into the night partying and being very loud.

It’s the worst hotel I’ve stayed in. Wyndham should really look into this hotel. It was rundown and dirty, location feels unsafe with rundown buildings. Breakfast awful, only breakfast bars and coffee/fountain juice. On top pf this, i paid a premium price of $184.00. I would not choose these hotels again.
