Recent Reviews in West University

Ramada by Wyndham Reno Hotel and Casino

8/10 Good

"Biggest issue I had were the people hanging around outside. Just seemed a little seedy. The snack and soda amenities are pretty much non-existent. I asked for a refrigerator to store diabetic medical supplies, but they wanted me to upgrade my room for that. Not a chance!! They had some sort of air freshener throughout the entire building that was a bit on the heavy side which was a turnoff. The diner there is great! I had a cheese steak one day and their pancakes and sausage special the next day and they were delicious!"
