Howard Johnson by Wyndham Merrillville

The outside of the building looks apocalyptic. Weeds overgrown, people obviously high out of their minds wandering around. Industrial fans blowing in a very warm building. The pool was half covered by a tarp. The inside felt like it hadn't been updated in about 20 years. Broken furniture littered the hallways. The room was dirty, the hallways leading to the room was dirty. The aircon didn't work anywhere in the buliding.

Room was clean, water pressure was good. Bed was fine. The property outside of the room was run down and overgrown. That being said, all I wanted was a clean room and that is what I got. So, I’d stay again.

Poor condition cleaning ladies dropped the ball.even the toilet didnt work look at pictures see bugs in the picture.could of stayed at motel 6 if i wanted trash.the pictures made it look so nice.hallways are very nasty spilled shakes down the stairs .my door looked kicked in barely worked.this stay was not worth $134 or to be on expedia

Room was awful. When we first got there a piece of the ceiling fell on my wife's head. We complained to the front desk and while they did move us to a different room, there seemed to be no apology or remorsefullness in the staff. The overall stay was awful. Most things were broken or didn't work well. The staff was rude and unapologetic. Would never stay there again.

Was good for the price.

This hotel was very out dated. Horrible customer service. I had to ask for towels over and over and never received them. Her response was they don’t have enough staff. It was molded. Construction was going on in the middle of the hallways, The Pool area was dirty. I had to ask them to clean it. It’s felt like something out of American horror story!! Staff was not helpful at all. This place needs to be shut down immediately.

From the moment you arrive you see the deterioration of the place, nothing to do with the photos with which they announce it. Everything around is dirty inside and out. It doesn't have air conditioning in the common areas and they stink. The rooms are not very clean either, in a whole week no one got to clean the room and much less to change sheets and towels. The corridors with garbage and bad smells. Most of the employees with a very bad attitude. The breakfast was very poor and poorly cooked, plus at 7:45am there was not even coffee left. As soon as I arrived and saw everything I wanted to cancel even if they charged me for the first night but they told me that if I canceled I had to pay for the 6 nights I had booked so I chose to stay, but it was totally unpleasant.

They are in the process of renovating old, neglected property. Our room was clean. However, the breakfast was skimpy to nonexistent, the TV had no cable service to it, and the pools (inside and outside) were out of service. I would not recommend staying here until the renovations are completed. The staff is very nice though and apologetic of the conditions.

The place was dirty, bags of garbage in the hallways that had not been picked up in 2+ days. The room smelled like mold and there were pieces of mold being blown from the AC unit. The shower didn’t look like it had been cleaned, so I ended up buying my own cleaning supplies to clean the room. Things were so bad, I ended up checking out a day early. Don’t let the pics fool you; this place is a dump, seriously.

Friendly staff
