Wyndham Garden Galena Hotel & Day Spa

Wyndham Garden Galena Hotel & Day Spa

8/10 Good
"We spent 3 nights at the Wyndham Garden Inn in Galena, Illinois. The staff is wonderful, our room was good. Since our last visit they have done some remodeling. What I don't understand is why they put the drawers to hold your clothes at the very bottom of the area under the TV. There are 2 small drawers, above that is the coffee maker & microwave. They are so low, that you cannot read anything on these 2 appliances, unless you crawl on the ground, with a flashlight in hand! The toilet in the bathroom obviously belongs in a preschool, it is so low to the ground! Maybe the designer of the redo was only 4 feet tall. And then the morning we were leaving, the toilet seat broke! There was also a standing lamp in the corner that had no shade on it, so it was useless. We have stayed at this hotel for many years, back when it was a Ramada & have always loved going there. I would go back again, but maybe I will ask for a handicap room & things will be better."
