My family and I were here for the weekend with 2 other families.
Parking: Open lot free parking
Check-in process: arrived at 3pm, which was the earliest time arrival time. Rooms weren't cleaned yet, no linens or bath towels. Waited to get a key card for a room that was not prepared.
Pool: No towels, dirty, broken cleaning net. My husband and daughter had to clean and scoop out the dead bugs and debris each time my kids wanted to get in.
Towels: We had 2 towels for 4 people in the room. Then we went to the pool and there were no towels. I went to reception to ask the man at the counter for pool towels, and he said they're being washed. This was inching towards the 5pm hour by now... over the weekend, we dipped in the pool again and asked for pool towels to which the front desk man was sitting at and he said there should be towels. I told him I saw 1 before coming this way cus I had 3 people with me. It took him 30 seconds to grab towels, which he could've just done the first time.
Bfast: I get that it's a small establishment. By morning we went to bfast, and food was low, the waffle batter machine was "broken" the staff overseeing the bfast area literally said out loud to everyone sitting in the dining area "They broke it." She was informing the front desk lady of this. She went back behind the counter, and the two started having a loud discussion about the waffle batter machine. Something along the lines of "They broke it, they can't read English or something." I panned the room taking notice of the 2 Caucasian families and several Asian families. We all just looked at each other. At this time, the staff berating everyone had "fixed" the batter machine, stating loudly to the front desk person, "If it gets broken again. I'm taking it away." A man unbeknownst to the challenges asked if food was being refilled. She loudly told him something along the lines of "If you want raw food, i can bring it out to you now. Otherwise, Im working on it." Of course, a response like that would illlicit anger. The man said "no I want it cooked." To which she answered."It's coming out, but it's still cooking. Unless you want to go back there and cook it. Feel free."
I understand where the staffs frustration is coming from. It's a small dining area with over 20-30 people at bfast. 1 staff member making and bringing out the food and one front desk staff. The morning service is busy. Whatever they're paying isn't enough to sustain the employees. Employees who aren't treated fairly or paid well will project poor customer service. Which I and other customers saw over the weekend stay.
Recommendation: Either close it down or
1. Have contracted employees for busy week/weekends... the way I saw it operated and the customer service this weekend was truly disappointing for a Wyndam.
2. Customer service training
3. Stock supplies (food, towels, pool towels, etc..)
4. Whole hotel renovation...
Edit: For anyone saying this establishment is a 5 star, with 5 star staffing, they must be drinking something ... I paid $500 to stay 3 nights ... I expect more than excuses, less verbal abuse, and slow staff. I'd actually prefer a refund ...
