I feel like because we booked through Expedia they gave us the subpar version of the King room with Mandalay view. I have a sense that they set aside these lower versions of what is supposed to be a higher end tier room. This has happened a few times so far-I think I’m getting a good deal on a better tier room and at check in the desk people put us in what they believe Expedia booking should be and not what a regular person booking through the hotel site would get. This particular room had peeling wallpaper, an old beat up tub, and in general looked a bit worn and dated. I don’t truly know if the rooms themselves just needed a refresh but I will say it looked worn for the level of room it was. We were in room 2611.
I gave this property 4 stars overall as there were definitely some areas for improvement. We stayed for New Year’s Eve 2023 and booked a king room with the Mandalay view. The view itself was beautiful. Looking out as the sun set and at sunrise was the best part of this room. The dining area also is not a cozy type of dining area but very open so when guests are arriving and leaving you can see all that motion. The seats also in the restaurant left much to be said, they were very uncomfortable. We usually book at the Marriott nearby for our staycation and decided to take a chance on the Omni but I think we will not return to Omni.
Overall, the view was great but the rooms and amenities need to be refreshed.
