We stayed in this hotel last October 5 , 2024 for one night. Upon check-in at 0730pm the front desk ***** informed me that I booked 2 room, right away I told him that I only need 1 room (deluxe, non-smoking 2 double bed) so he said he will cancel the extra room. He assigned us a room in the main floor Room # ***, On the way to our room there are people smoking weeds on the hallway and when we open the our room it has a smell of pet pee and mold. My son (5 years old)who has asthma immediately starting coughing and sneeze. Right away I went back to the front desk and ask for the other room but unfortunately he said he give it away. And that night he said they don't have vacancy. When I entered in the hotel to check-in it has a sign that for reservation only. I called the wyndham customer care reference#******** but they advice me to call the hotel to discuss the issue or concern which I did. Unfortunately, I did not get a chance to speak to ******** (general Manager) and have resolution because she will drop the call all the times.Business Response

I reject the response from wyndham : As a customer I have the right to received the services that is advertised or promise by the establishment to provide a non-smoking, hygenienic and sanitary condition of the room but they failed to provide this during my visit. I forget to mention to my first complaint that we did not stay in the hotel because my Son asthma was starting to flare up. I want a refund to the 2 room totaling amount of $286.12. Finding another hotel at that time was very difficult because the town has marathon the next day. The only resolution I wanted is to refund the amount I paid without using the service.

9/11/23 @ 11:40pm I came into the lobby to check in Me and my team for work. {We work for a major automaker so we travel all over our 50+ states. We stay at hotels close by the job site.}The men at the desk refused to tell me their names but demanded my ID before saying hello. After demanding a $100 deposit I was provided a room with black mold in the tub, no toilet paper, no working tv, no working phone, no working clock. When my co-worker and I returned to the front desk to request a new room, we were advised we can just cancel our reservation and go somewhere else. We asked why we couldnt get a new room. We were then told, they are refusing service and our reservation has been cancelled. I immediately asked for a copy of the receipt or proof of the cancellation and the front desk attendant stated he could not show me the screen. I had to call the police make the front desk rep give us proof of cancellation. I called the next day requesting to speak with a manger, I spoke with **** and **** who I believe were the same men from this incident and they refused to provide the managers name. He stated, we call him CJ its some Indian name I cant say. I personally feel like this ethically needs to be investigated There have been 100s of similar complaints we learned later. Please have someone investigate this establishmentBusiness Response

I booked a one night stay at the Super 8 in Portland ***** for 8/18/23 through hotels.com. I opted to pay for the stay at the establishment. The property charged my card $248.19 on 8/17/23. I arrived on 8/18, checked in and went to the room. The smell of cigarette smoke was very strong when we walked in, it was clear someone had smoked in there very recently. I decided to check the bed for bedbugs and pulled the blanket back and noticed blood stains on the sheets. The carpet was sticky and there were cigarette burn holes all over. My husband and I immediately decided that the unsanitary conditions were unacceptable and we could not stay there. We booked another room on hotels.com ($370) and went to the front desk. I explained to the front desk person why we could not stay there and asked for a refund. He told me that I needed to contact hotels..com because that is who I booked it through. We left to go to the other hotel we booked and I called hotels.com on the way. We were running late for what we were there for and could not wait at the super 8. Hotels.com explained to me that because the hotel is who charged me, it would be them that process the refund. They contacted the super 8 and requested a refund and they denied it saying that their cancellation policy is clear. I called the hotel myself and asked to speak to the manager and the front seat person told me he will not give me the manager and hung up on me twice. In addition to the unsavory condition of the room, the property was also filthy and every trash can we encountered was overflowing. I would like a full refund as the service I paid for was not rendered, to no fault of my own. I showed up, I checked in. I wanted to stay there. They didnt provide me with suitable accommodations. The room and property did not fit the description on the website. I attached a picture of the nonsmoking room I booked and the cleaning policy of the hotel that clearly was not followed. Inspection should follow.Business Response

I called and reservation for 2 nights at the super 8 the telephone person presumably his wife put 203. 00 0f my fund's on hold. I show up after already given all debit card information to the person who was answering the phone and it was confirmed. He then try to run my card again stating the bank declined the transaction the card reader approved it as well. I called my bank account and money was missing but the transaction that he had my swipe was declined for wrong card information. That means that I didn't have enough money to rent another room because they have 203 dollars on hold and would not release it.Business Response

I rent out 4 nights for this hotel because it seem to be affordable and in a good location. However, when I arrived at the location it nothing as the pictures show online (I reserved online), the hotel was an location that can be questionable (ghetto), the hotel at first glance gave the impression that it was going to be ugly and not safe and that ended up being the case. The hotel was ugly, most of the doors I could not open with the card and the rest were open to the public anyone could get in because the doors were not working, the place smells bad when you first go inside, however, the rooms have a bad smell like old furniture, they are small, no refrigerator, no microwave, the tv has basic cable is small and in the room side of the room, the chairs were dirty like they have never been cleaned or changed in a while, the hallways smelled old and most people were smoking weed we could smell it across our hallway. We were woken up at 8am and the male janitor tried to open the door without knocking we were females inside the room and half naked this was unacceptable. The swimming pool is promoted on most websites and even theirs but it was not opened to the public due to COVID but they still posted as available online. To make it short I had to cancelled the rest of the 3 nights and get another hotel in Scarborough which is safer and looks much better than where this hotel is located. Enclosed is the cancellation fee we had to pay because the issues we faced here. We still were not able to cancel although we tried to cancelled and not be charged within minutes of arrival in the room and reporting the issue immediately. I am asking for the refund of the cancellation fee as this should have never happened because we tried to cancelled all nights but we were told we had to pay the first night because we were already checked in.Business Response
