Hawthorn Suites by Wyndham Wheeling at the Highlands
10/10 Excellent
"The rooms are fantastic and feel more like a mini-suite: having a sink, microwave, and fridge makes it easy to settle in (especially for longer stays). The bathroom also has proper ventilation, which might sound small, but it’s a huge plus.
I also appreciated the lounging options in the room — it’s not just a bed and a chair, you can actually relax.
Breakfast was excellent: warm items plus plenty of sides, so it felt more complete than the typical “hotel breakfast.”
One thing to know: the parking lot gets completely packed, and it’s mostly massive pickup trucks (lots of oil rig workers stay here). If you’re driving a standard car, parking can feel like a bit of a jigsaw puzzle—and you’ll definitely feel dwarfed.
The upside? Those workers run 12-hour shifts (5am–5pm), so if you go to breakfast after about 8:30am, the lobby is quiet and you can enjoy a peaceful breakfast (honestly more relaxing than most hotels).
Staff was very friendly, and the location is convenient with lots of shopping and dining nearby.
Last tip: when leaving the hotel, hang a left out of the driveway if you want to make a left onto the main road—don’t go right unless you’re turning right"
