| - The Wyndham is a good place to stay only if you can get a really good rate. Personally, I used Orbitz and booked a flight/hotel combination and received a King room for something like $60 per night with all the discounts, etc. This place is worth $60 per night, though, I probably would not pay more than $80 per night.
Downtown Cleveland is a ghost town and this really hurts the hotels in the neighborhood. If you like theater, this hotel is located adjacent to Playhouse Square so it's very convenient in that aspect.
Some things I liked...
The super cheapo rate I received when I booked this hotel. There's nothing like a HUGE bargain when traveling.
The chef's signature pasta. Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo. Delicious. The dinner rolls were hot and fresh and the Mixed Greens salad was to die for.
The comfy king bed was great. The rooms could use some updating as far as electronics are concerned though.
Some things I disliked...
My breakfast was late.
I was told to set my room-service tray outside my door when I was finished eating. It sat there for more than 24 hours, even after housekeeping serviced all the rooms on the floor.
The added gratuity on room service is 19% which is more than sufficient and means that I shouldn't feel guilty for not leaving an EXTRA tip. But, for some reason, I always did.
For the second half of my stay, my whole floor smelled of sewage. Dirty, rotten, feces. Something was backed up somewhere and the smell was even more putrid in the bathroom. I had to keep the door closed. Also, There was a loud banging noise above my room. Not man-made but something in the building itself--pipes or foundation maybe. Whatever it was, talk about annoying!
