Oh my!!! 😬😳

I decided to give this hotel another shot after my first stay left quite a bit to be desired. So I swung for the fences and booked a suite; 606 to be exact. At first glance the room looked lovely, but then....😳😬 Pretty sure the place to do any sneeze cheese in Wausau, has been done in suite 606 🤧😵 (pic attached). But wait, there's more....hairs stuck to the shower walls secured by snot rockets, random plaster crumbles along the floor, broken coffee maker (which I'm going to take as a blessing since who knows what fungus has been lurking in there☠️), questionable stains on the bed sheets, couches, etc. The pros, you ask? I was an hour early for my meeting in the morning (checked out way earlier then I planned) and the hotel has a geat location. End scene 🎦

Comfort rules!

Very friendly staff, comfortable mattress an pillows. this may sound goofy, but, they have the chair height toilets which is so much better than the usual cheap hotel toilet that’s about 6” tall. Only disappointment was that the restaurant was closed on Sundays. Judging from that one would assume that the food isn’t good enough to bring in local customers.
