Wingate By Wyndham Southport

8/10 Good

"Nice to have large room, nice furnishings. Window A/C has more noise. Glad to not have traffic nearby, peaceful grassy view on back side. No fun to have sausage biscuit in wrapper instead of the expected hot eggs/bacon/sausage on the first day, but it was back after that day. Nice dining area, 2 choices with most items for breakfast. Elevator was creepy with the shuddering and noise as it came to a stop. Shampoo squirt container in shower was empty (found out after already in shower). Taller fridge than I usually see in hotels (no freezer). Loved having four lamps in the room - and they all had “real” light, and not just a 15watt bulb like most! Room was updated and comfortable. Bathroom had roomy countertop. Responsive front desk personnel. Great central location! Will stay there when I come to Southport again!"
