    The dirty walls! Looked to be blood but may have been a red sauce was 1st thing noticed
    T B.

    Dimples(so she says her name is) the front desk lady is or appears to be incompetent. I stayed here last week because I drive trucks and pass through weekly if not twice weekly . I stayed here last week! She checked me in same info and same company card!! Had to change rooms twice due to one not being clean and other one with no working lights!! She said she just started and apologized while trying to hurry back to a book she was reading on tablet! I come this week she says I am a VIP IHG member, give id and use same exact information (already reserved) she says name has to match exactly on card yet its a company card smh I ask her to contact manager she says she is the manager which I know to be a LIE because i was here last week when another customer on phone asked for one and she said they arent in and she would leave message! This Holiday Inn Express definitely will not get any more of my business or the anyone I send this way! Not like the rooms are cleaned it was mold on bed skirt!!! Noticeable too! And she sent to another room that should have been out of order for lights! Then she asked me to call company, its 11:30 pm Im not calling anyone this late she tells me I asked hwr to call manager smh what type of customer service does those lady have!!! I stayed professional and walked next door and they welcomed me in there (rewards member as well) rooms bigger better and cleaner ans customer service top notch and get this the same room $20 cheaper with free breakfast! Thank Dimples

    Trash in the cabinet under

    Count the red flags : 1) OU home game weekend, so the rates were jacked up to $300+ dollars... But that is somewhat expected. But for that much money... You expect a clean room... Which we did not get. 2) only 1 tiny trash can for a 2 room Suite. 3) only 3 towels and 2 hand towels and wash cloths... So had to go to the desk for more. 4) the pull out sofa bed had no sheets on it and there were none in the closet.... Had to go back to the desk for those too.... And no extra pillows 5) the carpet was really dirty 6) maybe the biggest issue... Under the bar sink was a lot of trash, see Pic. Empty coke cans... Half eaten bags of chips. 7) 2 room suite.. So 2 TV's... One of the TV remotes had no batteries.... Had to go to the front desk again 8) no do not disturb sign in the room On the plus side, the grandkids did enjoy the breakfast. I know a lot of places are struggling to keep up with employees in service type jobs these days... And any one of these issues by itself wouldn't have been a big deal... But added together.... Not a good experience.

    Bunch of dirty towels left in the closet.

    First night we found a bunch of dirty towels left in the closet, also bathroom sink won't drain properly; my wife told the manager the next morning, along with requesting for our room to be cleaned, then we were out most of the day, when we came back, room wasn't cleaned, dirty towels still in the closet and bathroom sink still not FIXED! We will NEVER, EVER stay here again, I'm not a person leaving bad reviews everywhere but this hotel definitely deserves it!

    Food was nice

    Bed was shaking. Food was nice. Staff was nice. Bathroom super clean. And a kinda nice view. And there was trash on the ground.

    The accommodations were fine, but the person working the front desk was by far the rudest, most egocentric person I've ever encountered.

My husband wanted to surprise me with a "Gilmore Girls" type wonderful inn experience and it was such a treat! We stayed in one of the cottages and it was absolutely charming. I loved the comfortable living area and cozy fireplace. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was wonderful and had amazing water pressure in the shower. I loved the way the rooms were decorated with cute old fashioned decorations that were Oklahoma themed (we had a birdhouse themed room one night.) One thing I really loved was how wonderful they were about accommodating my medical issues. I have gluten sensitivity and also severe migraines, which make me very sensitive to light. They were so nice about unplugging some lights out on the porch that were bright so that I could sit by the windows without getting a headache. As for the food, sometimes when you're traveling and have to find gluten free food on the road, it can be a bit of a challenge, but oh, the food here was DIVINE! Breakfast one morning was a gluten free omelet with all the fixings, plus a big varied selection of fruit, plus GF cinnamon toast, plus there were these great smoothies. So good! Another day, it was these delicious gluten free blue corn pancakes that I practically inhaled, plus really yummy home fried potatoes with pork, plus a selection of fruit and the wonderful fruit smoothies again. There were even gluten free cookies available upon arrival! We'll definitely be staying there again the next time we drive through Oklahoma City!

There is an area with a desk, microwave, coffee maker and refrigerator. The coffee maker didn't work. That's ok, because there were coffee machines throughout the facility and Starbucks. The highlight for me was the food. The buffet was pretty good. This week I saw pizza, spaghetti, prime ribs, BBQ ribs, chicken, very good breakfast options, burgers, steak and great sides. There is a bar area with amazing bartenders and social activities during the week. The facility has pool tables, a gym, massage room and great fitness area. I came when it was a little cool, but I did get a peek at the pool. The lobby area had lots of chairs. The training rooms were nice. There were some technical issues with some of the rooms. That was the only thing that I would recommend improving. I would definitely love to come back. The staff were so attentive and very helpful. I was really impressed.

The room was incredibly clean!!! You can tell they put hard work into making sure each inch of the place is cleaned and prepped for each guest. In this trip We've visited 13 states, and used multiple hotels and restaurants stop bathrooms.... The ThunderBird Lodge by far had the BEST toilet paper we've used since being at home. Small detail? Yes. Big difference? holy CRAP (no pun intended) yes! This was our first time in Oklahoma, and Mel made sure to let us know about tornado warnings and what channel to watch the storm on. She was very concerned about our safety, and made sure to notate which car was ours and which ones didn't belong to guests, to eliminate sketchy people and keep the guests safe. There was also a cute little cat that roamed the parking lot and let us pet him. A really great stay and really great atmosphere!

She went above-and-beyond in every way to make sure our stay was great (even brought water bowl & treats up for my pup!). Some things to keep in mind: - it's an older place so don't expect "fancy" furnishings, but everything is extremely well-cared for, clean, and thoughtfully arranged - the overall grounds are fun to roam around--make sure to visit the gazebos and pool area turned into dog park! - they are updating some things like the TVs and making it even more dog friendly (it's already extremely dog friendly!) so stay tuned for more ... We'll be returning next time we're in Norman for sure!

    I do recommend this restaurant and gave it four stars for the following reasons:…read moreI rated the food as average--not bad nor great. The staff and chefs were obviously maintaining the food so it was freshly prepared. I rated the service as mostly excellent, even though we had to wait a bit to be seated. The waitress checked on our table several times as we dined. I rated the restaurant as very clean with cleaned tables, surface areas, and floors.

    Since this is the whole Casino itself, will be reviewing the establishment itself…read more I've been to other Casinos from my home country and Las Vegas and I would say, definitely a far cry to those Casinos. Some said there were some designated smoke areas but it seems like people smoke anywhere regardless. People are also dressed like they're just going to walmart or something. There were actually other eating places here, but we went for the Riverwind Buffet. Unfortunately, the rules were not really upheld because it was mentioned that the whole party must be in line but some people in front of us kept going in and out of the line. Not really the fanciest buffet compared to the ones I've been to especially Las Vegas. The selection is also very limited and personally the only best thing here is the Snow Crabs and their good selection of desserts. The calamari may be a good contender. Thankfully my baby loves their one and only soup which is the Broccoli and Cheddar. Unfortunately, even their one and only best thing had issues for me. I felt like some of the served crabs were not fresh and it gave off a really bad smell and weird taste giving me the impression that they've gone bad already. So, I would advise people not to just eat the crabs willy nilly without properly assessing it. Wish they had a cracker and some gloves to offer as well to help with eating the crabs especially the claw part. The server that we had was kind and attentive but lost our receipt. Thankfully the lost receipt wasn't an issue during our stay. The ambiance, like I said, isn't the best compared to other buffets to the Casinos I have been to in the Philippines and Las Vegas. Like personally, unfortunately, the Philippines Casino and Buffet is heaps better and most of the Casinos (which is most I have been to) in Las Vegas is like miles away from the Riverwind Casino and thats also in terms of their Buffet and ambience. It could have been better being one of the only few Casinos near OKC. One major complaint I have is the lack of bathroom inside the buffet area as it only had a one room/stall for each gender. Like you have to go outside the buffet to use the bathroom and even wash your hands if you can't wait for it. Thankfully the bathrooms in the casino area seems to be well taken care of as someone keeps cleaning it. The way to the bathroom in the buffet area is also disgusting as you would see all the left overs and unwashed plates on the way there. Overall, for a family birthday celebration, it was still okay and not the worst but not the best. Despite the crab issues, it is still worth coming back for it as the price justifies it especially if you love crabs (which is only available on Saturdays). Would definitely advise you all to come early as we spent majority of our time (like probably 1-2 hrs) waiting in line for the buffet.

    Review for Hampton Inn…read more As a full-time character to my husband with brain cancer, it's often that I need respite which includes a nights rest out of the home. So I chose the Hampton Inn and suites. It's not too terribly far from my house and close to some comforts that I enjoy. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The hotel was clean and smelt clean but not in a 'hey we just bleached/Lysol the place' way. Because lest be really no one likes that The room was nice and quiet. For 50+ mph winds it was more quiet than my house! There were even dogs two rooms down and I only knew this because I came out of my room the same time they did. So I LOVED the peace and quiet this hotel provided me. The towels were soft the water was nice and warm. I loved that the bedding wasn't just a thin layer and I felt comfortable throughout the night. The thermostat was easy to use and there wasn't a delay or awkward smell that came from the vent. (can you tell I've stayed at some questionable places lately ) I overslept for breakfast (which was open until 9am oops) I had such a good nights rest! The second night I barely squeezed into breakfast to snag an oatmeal bowl before they fully closed and I was pleasantly surprised how good the oatmeal was and it was still perfect temp! But if you're really not into what they have or you much prefer your favorite drink, like a grande mocha to pump at Starbucks (my hubs go-to), no fret! Starbucks is walking distance from the hotel. Or maybe you're more of a McDonald's person that's close by too. The downstairs area is very welcoming and spacious. They have a downstairs bathroom, which is nice and big and clean. I did not check out the pool area or the laundry area though my dog neighbor said the laundry area was great. This is the perfect stop for your travel journey, a work trip, or a staycation like I did. Though my husband wasn't with me- Notes- Plenty of blue parking spaces. Easy entrance to navigate with automatic doors. Wide hallways and spaces typical size elevator. Surprisingly lighter weight doors than most of the handicap accessible rooms I've been in. I didn't reserve an accessible room since it was just so I can't speak on those features. But the downstairs area had plenty of tables where he could've rolled up and the downstairs bathroom had plenty of space. I could've taken him in there and cleaned up if needed.

But the price has been OK so it has been acceptable in the past. Tonight I came in after a long day's work and the kid at the front desk refused to give me a bottle of water (costs them less than a dime) even though I'm a diamond member of long standing. He turned me down with a smug smirk and pointed to a sign suggesting that because this is run by a franchisee, that Hilton protocols don't have to be followed. So it's attitude. And this guy's attitude stunk to high heaven. I will never stay at this property again when in Oklahoma City and ask other prospective guests to reconsider and stay at a different Hilton property instead. Hilton promises on signs to make problems right or the night is free. Even a call to customer care did not fix that, so don't think that as a guest you have any protection from abuse because you really don't. The only way to settle their hash is to stay elsewhere:
