Super 8 by Wyndham Sheldon

I wasn't expecting much, but this place surprised me. The space was clean and cozy, the staff was very friendly, and it was quiet and secure. For the price, it was truly a positive experience. Perfect for an overnight layover—I would go back if I'm in the area again.

We were totally disappointed right from the start. We checked in on a Sunday night for two nights. There was no one to be found at the front desk and after pressing the buzzer we waited for 5 minutes for the worker to come out of a room. The hall stinks of having too much chemical put down on the carpet. We walked into a very cold room and discovered that the heater was unplugged. The ceiling on room 114 bathroom has mould. The cracks in the floor were dirty, the shower head sprays water all over the place and the sink was heavily chipped. The bathroom heating lamp timer didn't work either. We were on a business trip and I wished we would have stayed somewhere else. There is a pool on site but the area is taped off and sign saying pool is closed. The "free" breakfast is super skimpy as well. We had to again wait for someone when we wanted to check out. Either Wyndham is letting this property run down or they are short staffed. I will gladly pay more for a motel in another town than stay in this property the next time that I am travelling to this area.

We always enjoy staying at the Super 8 in Sheldon, Iowa. It is always clean and neat and the owners are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast is good with waffles and other items. We have stayed here many times while visiting family and we are always comfortable and welcomed.

Motel is long overdue for a renovation. Been coming here every year for last 5 years and this will be the last unless it is free. Be aware that this is privately owned and not corporate run by Wyndham/ super 8. The owner is very nice and friendly but very low budget. The pool has been closed for 4 years. The towels look and feel like thin sheets of sand paper that you can see through. Rooms are very run down and filthy, they claim it’s due to lack of help. They will ask you upon check in if you would be needing maid service. The bedspreads haven’t been washed or replaced in at least 5 or more years. In fact everything in the rooms have not been updated or have had a good cleaning. All the decor looks of the 90’s. The breakfast is basically a waffle and a cup of coffee. I’ll just stop there. The only good thing is the $80 price on *******. But be prepared for a rough stay, bring your bleach and sanitizer.
