You can tell they're trying to get the property updated. Too bad they can't help the area it's in.

I will start by saying staff was very friendly and accommodating. Our issues were addressed and resolved quickly, efficiently and professionally. But outside of that, there is nothing really good to say. The location is no where near the downtown/ university, and at best is an 8 minute walk to a bus stop or $25 Uber ride. Or is on a freeway, so unsafe to walk and very loud. We got 0 sleep. Our shower looked like it hadn't been cleaned since the hotel opened. Musty and moldy rooms. The free breakfast was a joke. I was shocked this is under the Super 8 umbrella. This is more like a long term stay motel, not a place for tourists. The hotel was kind enough to refund our stay and we moved on to the Holiday Inn Town lake and never looked back

Staff was nice. Definitely a get what you paid for hotel. The only bad thing was the horrible smell of cigarette. Even though it was non-smoking. Smell improved a bit after turned the air on but it definitely lingered. Wouldnt recommended if you have any kind of breathing problems.

Convenient location, I-35 frontage is noisy. My bed was nice and clean. Room had vinyl flooring. Room just looks very tired... The room had a phone that did not have a dial tone. The room had a working refrigerator. The furniture doors would not stay shut. The fiberglass tub showed its age. The room needed a coat of fresh paint.

The best part was the 24-hour Mcdonald's across the street. The room was dirty, and I felt like I had to itch all over my body, and I did not want to risk taking a shower without any water shoes.

Great experience overall! Outstanding staff, very welcoming, friendly, helpful, positive atmosphere. Examples like the front desk manager Mikayla who went the extra mile to accomodate the type of room I desired (location, view etc), and who also is running all the time thoroughly ensuring that everything is the best for everyone. The same with Jennifer, front desk is extremely busy juggling between incoming customers and servicing existing guests. Ethish is also very welcoming, thorough in helping, very friendly and positive. Akhil shows high professionalism, friendliness and caring as well. Diana (also front desk manager) confirms the same same qualities of this great team. Security is very active day and night, adding extra comfort to the numerous security cameras and the quiet area. The continental hot breakfast is of good quality. Fresh coffee is available 24/7. The rooms are very clean, the housekeeping and cleaning teams are also very helpful and polite (to exemplify with Rocio). Windham management inspects this location regularly. I strongly recommend this place for a great value stay!

I have to admit that I did not pay a lot to stay here, but the sidewalk and parking lot really needed to be repaved. It was very uneven and you had to watch where you were walking. There were some repairs needed in the room as well but were minor. The clerk upon check-in did not tell me when breakfast was. It ended at 9 which I find unusual for a weekend day. I heard the neighbors through the walls. They asked that we not put the cooler under 68 and the heater over 72. That was unusual. But for what I paid, it was sufficient.

Roaches in the bathroom When I arrived they had overbooked the king rooms and gave me the queen room next to the ice machine, vending machines and elevators. They did reluctantly relocate me On my last morning I went to use the laundry room which was supposed to open at 8 but was still locked at 8:30. I went to the desk and they said they'd be "right up". Twenty minutes later I was still waiting so I gave up.

Property is literally falling apart. Photos of the place must be 20 plus years old as the rooms are not what they look like in photos. Bed & bedspreads paper thin, holes, dirty. Holes in walls. Gap under door that causes all noise carry in to an like your sleeping with the door open.

Im not sure how they managed to get the door.open this morning 11/7/2023 at around 930am but someone opened our door to the room. I did inform the front desk but u figured they would call me back but never did. She asked if it was the cleaning ladies but if check out is not til 11am why would they be cleaning and going into rooms at 930am. My husband did go outside right after but there was no cart around the cleaning ladies use. Safety and comfort is what everyone seeks when staying at a hotel.

First room they put us in smelled really bad and the bathroom had mold and what look like a bunch of paint maybe on the door and tub. No phone. Lights didn’t work. Truly felt like that was a room they shouldn’t rent out to anyone but they moved us to another room that was better. But still just like what you may expect from a rundown motel.
