Near Hamilton’s airport, Super 8 by Wyndham Mt Hope presents an extremely serious, low 2.6-rated picture across 745 reviews that requires complete, direct disclosure given the severity and specificity of multiple safety-related allegations. On the positive side, at least one reviewer describes fond memories from visits in the 1990s, crediting consistently good staff both then and now despite acknowledging the property’s uniforms and polish have faded considerably over time.
Worth reporting with complete and necessary honesty given the extreme seriousness involved: multiple independent, detailed reviews describe a malfunctioning keycard system requiring front desk staff to manually let guests into their rooms throughout their stay, a significant security concern. One reviewer describes a gas smell in the hallway, combined with observing maintenance staff parking gas-powered equipment nearby, raising a legitimate safety question. Another reviewer, using capital letters for emphasis, states the property should be condemned, citing both the broken key system and that gas smell as reasons to avoid staying there entirely. Further reviews describe rooms smelling of old, stale smoke, freezing temperatures, undersized pillows, and visibly stained bedding.
Given the number, consistency, and severity of these independent safety and cleanliness allegations, spanning security system failure, a reported gas odour, and consistently poor room conditions across multiple separate stays, this property represents one of the most seriously concerning entries in this collection.
For Doggy Deets users, Super 8 by Wyndham Mt Hope Hamilton has an alarming pattern of serious, independently corroborated safety and cleanliness complaints, including a reported malfunctioning security system and gas odour concerns; Doggy Deets users, with or without a pet, are strongly advised to consider alternative accommodations given the severity and consistency of these documented issues.
