Super 8 by Wyndham Port Elgin

Location: Many users mentioned the excellent location, close to downtown areas, beaches, stores and restaurants.

Im traumatized. I really wanted to like this place but im never going back here or anywhere that has carpet. I had an antiety attack when i saw what i saw. My kids had a snack right before we were going out to dinner. Ive lived in places with carpet so i was very paranoid of them dropping food. We left about 20minutes later i came back to the room and i noticed 2 black spots on the ground between the beds. Seemed odd to me wasnt sure what it was, and so i got closer! And im not exaggerating when i tell you i kept repeating to myslef "dont freak out dont freak out dont freak out. 2 pieces of popcorn COVERED in ants, i couldnt make out what it was at first. And then i see lines of ants coming from under the beds! It was a night mare i instincly reacted and grabbed toilet papper doubled it up and scooped the mountain of ants and flushed it and sprayed all the carpet with bug spray. We did not sleep that night! I ran out of the hotel in the morning. If it was just me by myself i would have slept in my car that night but we have 3 young children so we did our best to just get through the night. Unfortunately this wasnt the only problem we had. When we first got in, the fridge wasnt working, the front desk employee came to check it and after like 10 minutes they realized it wasnt even plugged in. The A/C wakes you up everytime it turns on, it BLASTS and then stops, you start sweating buckets and then it BLASTs and you're freezing.. at one point the whole cover of the unit fell off.

Perfectly adequate Expected more for the price, especially based on reviews. Perfectly adequate hotel. Beds were comfortable and good noise insulation between rooms. Rooms are tired/beat up and not super well maintained. Our door would jam half way when opening due to improper installation of the door closer. Chair had tears, furniture was scratched. Rooms need a paint job. Our “patio” only had one chair. Picnic tables with umbrellas around the exterior of the outdoor pool area fence are nice. Smoking should not be permitted around the outdoor pool area. Fitness equipment is limited, but of good quality and in good condition. Breakfast was hot, which was a pleasant surprise. Lots of free parking. Check in was a bit of a gong show. One employee checking in a lineup of guests out the door, while other front desk employee sat outside on break. 2 employee eventually came in, but didn’t open 2nd computer, just looked over shoulder of first employee.
