Ramada Hotels in Vineland

Overall, pretty disappointing stay. Would not stay here again. Would not recommend. I booked this hotel through Priceline 2 weeks before my trip. Priceline told me it was a ”3-Star” hotel, and the reviews and photos looked good online. When I arrived at the hotel in the evening, I could tell right away that it was shabby, and there were crowds of people at every entrance, smoking, yelling, etc. The front desk for the hotel faced the front desks for an on-site steakhouse and a bar & grill. I arrived at around 8pm, and there was most definitely a party going on. The hotel and restaurant staff were playing loud music, dancing and carrying on. They were friendly, but the language and atmosphere seemed unprofessional, and I would NOT have wanted to bring my kids through the room. The check-in process was fast and smooth. I was given a room on the 2nd floor (no elevator). I immediately noticed that the hallway carpets were very dirty and stained, and the air was thick with cigarette smoke. I made it to my room (right next to the broken vending machine), and opened the door to a room filled with cigarette smoke. Yells and screams and sounds of fighting in the hallway and rooms next to and around mine were loud; women, children, and men shouting constantly, until around 11pm. The room, in addition to smelling like an ash tray, was dirty. the flooring has been updated, but the furniture was old, dirty, and scuffed. The paint was sloppy, and chipped in multiple areas. The soap/shampoo/etc was the cheapest I've ever seen. The photos are misleading. I find it difficult to believe that this is a 3-star hotel. Overall, pretty disappointing stay. Would not stay here again. Would not recommend.
