Super 8 by Wyndham Thurmont

Check-in was a bit bumpy, not to the fault of the staff as they were just working with the systems they had in place (eg. Have to page front desk for service, credit card reader issues, key encoder not working properly) and all in all was fine. In my room though I noticed an odd odor. Not quite like someone smoked in the room but like someone smoked outside and it just came off their clothes. It was still strong though. The facilities were mostly clean. Although the sheets had been stained. Not like it had been anything recent, just that they were so old it had accumulated over time. However the worst was how the window was damaged. The window pane was bent open for easy access into my room and the glass appeared to have been taped with clear duct tape.

The room was very clean and appealing, and the check-in person friendly and welcoming. My only complaint is there was no breakfast even though the website said complimentary breakfast.

Could use updating but still very clean. Darrell in the office is super accomodating and welcoming. Definitely will stay again some day

Everything was fine. Facility is old but is well kept. Room clean and nicely decorated.

This is quite possibly the worst hotel I have ever stayed in… I’ve visited over 30 countries around the world across all continents bar Antarctica… travelling for work and leisure. I’ve stayed in Super 8 motels before too, but this particular hotel is by far one of the worst! If it hadn’t been the only place available so close to where I needed to be I would’ve packed straight back out of the door!

A CRUMMY MOTEL - i GUESS OK FOR A NIGHT, IF ALL YOU DO IS SLEEP & USE BR. "Breakfast" consists of a Granola Bar & a cup of coffee!

So, I didn't expect much from a Super 8 and I got what I expected. Sometimes you get what you pay for. There was FREE parking & FREE WiFi. There was a heat/air unit that worked after the manager came down to the room and fiddled with it for a few minutes. As for the rest there were three small pillows on a King size bed, two practically see through towels that were much smaller than a house bath towel, no extra blanket, no "bathroom amenities" other than a bar of soap, no in-room iron or ironing board & the FREE breakfast consisted of a brown water that was similar to coffee and a kids size granola bar. To be fair, I DID ask the front desk for an iron & ironing board which they provided, so it is possible that if I asked for extra pillows, blanket, towels etc. they may have been provided also. The shower had plenty of hot water & good water pressure but the showerhead was full of mineral deposits and the tub did not drain quickly so I stood in two inches of water during the shower. A little scary was a back door to the inside of the hall of the hotel that looked like you needed a key card but was actually completely unlocked even at 10pm. The surrounding area was beautiful and within a mile are two National Parks and two State parks that have hiking trails & a visitor center.

Nobody at desk with a sign will be back in a few hrs.. tried twice

Cigarette burn on the old blanket. Pillow cases were pilled and 1 had animal and curly hair on it. New linens were definitely needed. I didn't see any breakfast. I came out to get breakfast, then couldn't get back in my room No shampoo was provided. Shower pressure wavered. The front desk person was very nice. I've stayed in worse places in emergent situations. But this definitely was just a place to sleep, shower and go.
