Top Fort Hays State University Hotel Reviews

Hilton Garden Inn Hays

6/10 Okay

"There were teenagers running up and down the hall yelling and making a great deal of noise. The hotel staff refused to address it with the other guests."

Fossil Creek Hotel And Suites

6/10 Okay

"Curtains need to be fixed or completely changed. They did not close fully. Breakfast was disappointing. Eggs were almost gone at 8:00 and there was no staff around monitoring it. Parking was convenient. The one person we had any contact with was not very cordial. No thank you, enjoy your stay, or letting us know Breakfast hours. We were disappointed because we had stayed there years ago and still expected the same experience. We won't be back."

avid hotel Hays by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"This was the second time staying at an Avid Hotel and I was just as impressed as the first time. The room was comfortable, well maintained, and nicely decorated. It felt upscale but was priced to be affordable. The check-in process was efficient and staff were professional and friendly. I only needed a clean room and good nights sleeps but got much more value at Avid for the same money as a room down the road. Avid will be the first brand of hotel I look for when traveling and needing to make reservations."

AmericInn by Wyndham Hays

4/10 Poor

"I booked this hotel based on the reviews and was sorely disappointed. Checking in the guys at the front desk “Mario” was unprofessional and was using profanity while on the phone with a calling guest who has having trouble locating the property. Please nice being check in, we walked to our room and opened the door to a foul smell, we had to open the window to try to air out whatever they had going on. The bathroom was absolutely disgusting. It looked like the shower floor had not been cleaned and there was hair from other guest on the shower floor and in the disgusting bathtub. I turned on the water to shower and it would not warm. My husband had to mess with it for about 10 min before we finally got hot water. The location of the hotel is convenient, but I would never stay here again. The photos they have on the hotel are most likely from 15 years ago because it is run down and gross now."

TownePlace Suites by Marriott Hays

2/10 Terrible

"We made a reservation at this hotel through Hotels.com. Unfortunately, due to an unpredictable highway closure, it was physically impossible for us to reach the property. We called hotels.com immediately to explain the situation. According to the representative there was not a manager on duty but according to the manager when called as soon as we could, they could have made an accommodation. but the hotel management completely refused to offer a refund, a partial refund, or even a credit for a future stay. To make matters worse, the hotel was 100% booked that night. They almost certainly resold our room to someone else—meaning they pocketed our money and took payment from a second guest for the exact same room. I understand hotels have cancellation policies, but exceptional and dangerous circumstances (like a closed highway) warrant basic human decency and flexibility. Taking a double payment while hiding behind "policy" is greedy and exploitative."

Days Inn by Wyndham Hays

6/10 Okay

"This property is dated. If you're wanting something fancy, this is not the place. If you just want somewhere to lay your head to get some sleep.... this probably would work. Our air conditioner gave off a musty smell, the room would get too warm and then cold but warm right back up when the air conditioner wasn't running. The bathroom was clean, but like I mentioned, it's very dated."
