2/10
I booked this Wyndham Motel 8 for a one-night stay. Normally, I would’ve chosen a better place, but for the price, availability, and the fact that I just needed a bed and some basic amenities like “breakfast” (which turned out to barely be a breakfast at all), I figured it would do for one night.
The only positive part of my experience was the front desk staff—they were genuinely kind, helpful, and super sweet. Unfortunately, everything else about this stay was awful.
When I opened the door to my first room, I was immediately hit with the strong stench of smoke—it was unbearable. I went back to the front desk and explained the issue. They switched my room instantly, no problem.
But the second room? Still smelled like smoke, just slightly less intense. I had been traveling all day and was too exhausted to go back down and switch rooms again. I figured I could tough it out for one night. Big mistake.
Within a couple of hours, I was nauseous and fighting the urge to throw up. The smoke smell seemed embedded in everything—the carpet, mattress, pillows, and walls. I barely got any sleep. The room was also incredibly outdated, the furniture was worn, walls were dirty, and the TV barely worked—every channel was staticky.
I didn’t complain again out of courtesy for the front desk, and honestly, I was afraid every room might be the same. I also would’ve left and gone to another hotel, but their cancellation policy is terrible—they don’t allow cancellations.
