Howard Johnson by Wyndham Merrillville

This hotel is not ready to be open. This looks like another Wyndham property that is refurbished as a budget hotel. Lots of things not ready yet. Elevator out of order, ice machine (first floor) out of order, ice machine (second floor) so dirty, I didn't wouldn't take ice. Room furniture very old, desk chair broken, hallway light burned out making it very dark. Breakfast was subpar, even for a budget hotel. Constuction material still in various places. Parking lot area overgrown. The saving grace was the room and bed were clean. Stayed Oct 4 - 5 2025

The staff were nice upon check-in. However, our room was very uncomfortable. It was so hot and stuffy, and the AC obviously did not work. It did not cool and hardly blew air out. The bed was comfortable, but it was hard to sleep with it being so warm. There weren’t all the usual toiletries in the bathroom, for example, no soap and a lack of washcloths.

Dark, dirty, broken a/c in lobby, broken elevator, should be closed for business. Checked out 10 minutes after checking in.

Enough

Room was clean staff was nice. Property needs a lot of maintenance.

DO NOT STAY. Horrible. Stale smoke throughout. Room key would not work Latch on side of door missing plate. Exposed sharp metal. Floors were sticky. No new toilet paper. Left roll from last customer. Mold in bathroom. Bed made horrible sound when sitting on. TV did not work. Should have left immediately! Do Not Stay!!

Terrible conditions

All good

this hotel isn’t perfect but its cheap, $300 for three nights not so bad if you decide to get a hotel cheap don’t expect it to be perfect. my experience was okay the lights flickered and shut off nothing a window cant help though. bed was clean and everything was decently clean they do need to check under things while cleaning bcz i found some deodorant and condoms😂but overall it was fine we didnt stay the whole day we went out. nobody came into our room and bothered our belongings so thats a plus. If your on a budget go here no bed bugs no bad things but if you are a little more bougie find somewhere else

Off the main drag made it nice
