Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Michigan City

Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Michigan City

8/10 Good
"Room was clean enough as was the property, however really needs lots of upgrades. My room was way in the back, I am sure there were open rooms closer to the front. The hallway in the back it was so hot I couldn’t stand it out there. When I left to grab dinner I was very uncomfortable when I stepped outside. An old beat up van parked next to my car had 4 younger males that were sketchy looking. There was another 20 something year old guy standing against the building, he also looked sketchy. Made me very uncomfortable. When I returned from dinner I parked in the front, which was way out of my way to get to my room. I at least felt more comfortable."
