WoodSpring Suites Hammond

We were only there for one night, so the small TV wasn’t a problem. If you’re staying longer and like watching TV, though, be warned that it’s pretty tiny. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and for the price it was a great stay.

The management was amazing, and the staff were always willing to help however they could. There’s security on site, the service was excellent, and the room was clean. It’s also the most affordable around here, while being much nicer than the other options and having more to offer. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else in the area.

The only things that made this place worth two stars were the guest laundry, if you bring your own soap since the machine takes your money without dispensing any, and a very good Cracker Barrel one block away. Otherwise, it felt like a last resort when you can’t drive farther and need a cheap bed. The parking lot was covered in trash, and the outdoor bin was overflowing. A loud, screeching elevator kept us up, and bright light came through the flimsy window blind. The bathroom sink was disgusting, clogged, and had gunk or mildew around it. There was no ice machine. Our room had a kitchen but not one pan or utensil, and only full beds were available, no queens or kings. It was dirty and poorly maintained.

The sheets didn’t seem to get changed, and there was lots of other people’s hair underneath them. The pillowcases were dirty and greasy, and the bath towels were dirty too. A call to corporate got transferred to the local hotel, and I’m still waiting for a callback and a refund. Don’t be fooled by the low price. This was a horrible place to stay.
