Negative Reviews
negative:
Poorly soundproofed rooms.
Microtel Inn and Suites by Wyndham guests have reported that the rooms are poorly soundproofed and noise from external sources easily filters into the rooms which can be particularly distracting at night.
negative:
Inefficient AC units.
Even though the hotel has done well to provide climate control systems in the rooms, several guests have observed that the AC units are often inefficient and do not cool the rooms adequately especially when it gets sweltering hot. Other amenities such as phones are frequently out of service.
negative:
Smoking in the rooms.
Although the hotel has designated some rooms as non-smoking rooms, guests have complained that many of these rooms frequently reek strongly of cigarette smoke. A lot of smoking also goes on in common spaces such as the hallways.
