Stay Far Away

I refused to put my family in such a place. I canceled reservations after seeing the room, clientele, and area.
JOHN, 1-night trip

Dirty, rundown and not a comfortable place. Didn’t end up staying and unfortunately still paid for it.

Buy a vaccuum amd a mower

Room was fine. Hallways were filthy. Overgrown weeds. Almost looked to be closed Just putting a little effort could make this a decent hotel.
Kevin, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Hot but not nasty

Outside needs work like everyone says. Inside wasnt bad, but the AC was either off or broken for sure. When we got to our room, it was so hot. We turned the AC on right away but it never really cooled down. Bed and sheets were clean, floor didn't feel great but bathroom was clean. Fridge was broken, had to ask for hair dryer, there was no iron. Asked for one extra pillow and there were none clean. Breakfast was fine/very basic. Didn't swim as the hours

2/10 Poor

Absolutely terrible

This hotel was absolutely disgusting. The cleanliness was absolutely nonexistent. The first room that I went into the toilet seat was completely covered in urine. The towels had what looked like rust on them. The bathtub did not look like it was properly cleaned, and there was dust and food crumbs all over the counter. If you value cleanliness this is definitely not a place you need to stay.
Tarek, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Construction in the next room.

The outside of the location looked horrible and almost abandoned. It can't be hard to get a landscape company to come take care of this. The staff on the inside were friendly. There was a construction company working on certain rooms thru the hotel. Not on areas but rooms so the room next to you or across from you maybe getting work done. This is stupid because you assume that guest are not sleeping thru the day and thats not true. The room i was in looked like it should be on the list to get worked on.

Do not stay!!!

Horrible. Parking lot and grounds were overgrown. Broken windows, building literally looks like it’s falling apart. Lights out in hallways making it pitch black and dangerous. Breakfast was make your own waffles but the machine didn’t work. When I walked in the man at the desk just said ‘ID’. He told me my room number and nothing else.
Shannon, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Horrible Hotel!!!

Hotel is in poor condition. First arrived was given a key that didn’t open door. Had to return to front desk and be given another room. Once in the room no microwave was there and the tv didn’t work. Had to return to front desk to tell them that the tv didn’t work as there was no phone in the room to call the front desk! Pool was closed! Elevator was out of service! The hotel breakfast was doled out. I asked for more bagels and they brought out 3! The hotel gets a zero! We will never return again!!!!

Run away from the Horward Johnson of Merrillville

The worst place ever. It was run down with furniture that looked like it came from a thrift store, the locks were broke hallways smelled. The vending machines were broken. The ceilings were missing tiles and had wires hanging from them. I didn’t even stay I left after 15 of being in the room.

Would stay again!

The hotel is very secluded, and the map is inaccurate... but just keep going down the road. They're "under construction" but it is still very well maintained and there wasn't any noticeable noise.
Rosette, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Don't Do It!

The hotel is aged and is in need of a major renovation. The housekeeping is not impressive. A dirty hairy towel was left in the bathroom hanging on shower curtain rack. The shower curtain and bedspread had stains. The staff was ver nice. The hotel itself needs a major overhaul. I can't believe that this is a Wyndham Hotel. Wyndham dropped the ball on this hotel.

Bad
Mia, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Horrible, apocalyptic setting.

The outside of the building looks apocalyptic. Weeds overgrown, people obviously high out of their minds wandering around. Industrial fans blowing in a very warm building. The pool was half covered by a tarp. The inside felt like it hadn't been updated in about 20 years. Broken furniture littered the hallways. The room was dirty, the hallways leading to the room was dirty. The aircon didn't work anywhere in the buliding.
maryanne, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Worst hotel stay

Room was awful. When we first got there a piece of the ceiling fell on my wife's head. We complained to the front desk and while they did move us to a different room, there seemed to be no apology or remorsefullness in the staff. The overall stay was awful. Most things were broken or didn't work well. The staff was rude and unapologetic. Would never stay there again.
Paul, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

regret staying here. changed the mood

Property is in bad state overrall. I failed to read the comments before booking, was in a hurry. Broken toilet set. broken towel rack. Dirty counter, sink, nightstand. Needed vacuuming. Breakfast so-so. Fire alarm went off at 1:31 AM. Fire dept came out. probably sprinkler system issue. I was concerned about carbon monoxide therefore did not sleep more. Sleep and never wake up.
