Wheeler Vacations

Positives: Our 1BR apt. had a wonderful bed and amazingly comfortable bedding. The staff was fantastic. There are many nearby sights and restaurants to enjoy, including Cheryl's on 12th, which we loved. The price was much lower than competing properties. They had lovely events available though we didn't attend them. We appreciated the complimentary bottled water. Needs attention: The rest of the room's furnishings were lacking. The seating in the room was cheaply made, old, and uncomfortable. The furnished kitchen had one fork, a few spoons, and some coffee cups, and an anemic selection of cookware but no drinking glasses. An HVAC unit stood in the floor and vented outdoors. It was either freezing cold or very hot in the bedroom because of this. The shower is tiny and had a shower head that did not work well. The remote was not made for that TV, so even though it brought up a menu for Roku, there was no way to access our Roku account or any of the stations because there were no buttons to allow up/down/left/right navigation. The location: The Pearl district is a vibrant, busy area. There is a high degree of homelessness and drug use in the area. Fun for people watching, but less so if you plan to walk around at night. Expect constant traffic noise and people yelling outside the window, especially when you have to open the window. We felt that it was adequate for the price, though it would be so easy for the hotel to pay attention to furnishing the room better.

Pros- clean property and clean rooms. Friendly staff. Cons- VERY thin walls! I could easily hear the traffic, my neighbors, and even the elevator door, which was very creaky. Made it very difficult to sleep.

Horrible to be stranded at front desk while no one was there for 25 mins (?). The time is less a factor but it was myself and others were waiting for access to our room and parking. I had another upcoming reservation but cancelled

Perfect
