"We really enjoyed our stay overall. The location was excellent—quiet, peaceful, and set far enough away from town to avoid traffic, but still close enough to get anywhere quickly. The outdoor space was a big plus, especially for our dogs, who had plenty of room to roam. The beds were also very comfortable, which made for a great night’s sleep. The only downside was the cleanliness. The property was noticeably dusty, and the inside of the refrigerator could have been cleaned more thoroughly. With...

Top Carbondale Hotel Reviews

Super 8 by Wyndham Carbondale

Super 8 by Wyndham Carbondale

8/10 Good
"The room and bed/sheets were clean. Unfortunately the air conditioner wasn’t left on so the room was really hot when we arrived. The stair well had a funny smell but the room itself was nice and did not smell. The property seems well taken care of, but you get what you pay for. The bathtub is in need of refinishing. The hair conditioner was empty. The most important thing in a hotel for me is that the room is clean and the bed is comfortable and they do offer that. For the money, I would stay again, but don’t expect anything extra."
