Or room faced the parking lot. It was warm when entering and it took a whole 24 hours for it to cool down. Room was clean but when packing to leave, a roach crawled across the counter. Loved the additional small table in the room with extra seating. Both of us were able to work while staying.

At the desk they seemed like they were doing me a favor/ they didnt want to be there. The rooms were dirty. The carpets were stained like crazy. Their were bugs on the beds nothing to serious. The room smelled outdated. There was trash in the ice bucket. The fridge had a cheesecake that was old old... Beyond that the hotel is in a great spot. The outside looks decent. Breakfast was alright.

We checked in on a Saturday and checked out on a Wednesday. We never had any housekeeping service for our room the entire time. We had no phone in our room to even call the front desk. When I asked about it, the front desk lady could have cared less. She told me to call from my cell phone. I had tried calling for towels and couldn’t get anyone to answer the phone. I had to go to front desk to ask. We had to call on our cell phone every day for towels. I had to empty my own trash. Our TV was stuck on the loudest volume and the tech came up to fix it. He very nice and friendly, but we ended up having only one channel. We only tried the continental breakfast the first morning but it was unstocked an hour before closing. Didn’t even have coffee cups out. The lady at the front desk didn’t act like she cared at all. The lack of housekeeping is a MAJOR issue, because on check in I was told we would have daily housekeeping service. I have stayed at this hotel many times in the past with the old owners when it was Leconte View. It may not have been as updated but I never had a complaint. The front desk staff then was excellent and would immediately fix any issue I would say this will be my last stay at The Wander.

location was awesome. Staff was nice. They have tried to update the property however it was obvious they did not sweep or mop the bathroom. There was a beer bottle cap under the nightstand and a piece of sausage under the bed (which explains the roach that we had to kill). Will not stay here again.

Good staff; excellent location
The motel is located right on the main drag with plenty to do within walking distance. The main room was fairly large, but the bathroom was tiny, with no exhaust fan. The bathroom and entry doors stuck and had to forced open every time. Housekeeping consisted of emptying the trash and providing new towels- nothing more. The coffee machine with the acceptable free breakfast broke on day two of our visit. On morning three, it was still not working. The coffee pods provided in the room were not compatible with a cone filter, so the in-room coffee was terrible. The staff was very accommodating and friendly.

The lock would not work upon arrival. They did repair it and we cold lock our room. The condition of the property was dirty and we stayed 3 nights and no cleaning service. Dirty towels & trash in the hall. No soaps everything was empty. Went to front desk 2 times and nothing was done. Ants in the room etc. I picked up towels, bathroom tissue and was so happy to leave this place Sunday morning.
