Hyatt Place Topeka

Worse stay of my 65 years and with 41 years of Federal Service, I’ve stayed in more than 300 hotels. When you first arrive, the front of the hotel looks like it was hit by a tornado that ripped the roof off. You then have to drive through a maze of massive pot holes surrounded by orange cones. Once you make it to the parking lot, it’s full of 4-30 yard roll off dumpsters, and 5 or 6 Shiiping Containers. The room was nice and once inside, it was flooded with the echo of a jack hammer until 6pm. Ready for a good night sleep, my wife and I had to keep adjusting the heater. While set to 67, it kicked on every 20 minutes heating the room to what felt like 80. We finally found a setting at 63 that didn’t toast us. Finally in bed, we were awaken at 10:24pm, 2:24am, and 5:25am to the sound of the horn from the passing freight train. This will be a hotel we avoid next year when we pass through Topeka again. If you’re going to tear up the hotel and create a loud environment, close the hotel. Definitely not worth $172 for a night.

Pool wasn’t working when we stayed there, room was on a motel 6 level full of stains made me question their cleanliness. When I emailed the manager about a partial refund of my monies for my week long stay, it took the manger over one month to respond with multiple follow ups on my end. She told me she would comp me for my troubles. I requested a full refund at this point, she refused and gave me one night stay. It didn't even equal to the exact amount of monies her hotel was worth for one night stay. The parking lot was jet black, car could have been robbed. Hotel unit elf is extremely unmaintained and dirty. Never again at this hotel. It is not the Hyatt STANDARD WE as members are used to. Pretty sad considering it’s one of the nicer hotels in that town and it’s by the highway.

This is a nice place to stay normally. (As of Nov 19 of 2023 they are doing a remodel so it's a mess). The entrance looks like a war zone and the parking lot is a hazard. The pool is under construction too. As for the room, it would be nice if the tv tilted to the side so you could watch it from the bed. There is paint missing on the walls. We had no place to hang our clothes in the room because the clothes rod was missing. They have no hand soap so they gave us shower gel. There is no housekeeping unless you ask for it. The bed is set too close to heating/cooling machine on the window side. Otherwise the hotel is as nice as usual. They have good breakfast. The staff are friendly. They brought us a microwave to the room as requested.The bed was comfortable. It would be nice to have more variety of types of pillows. The door to the gym doesn't close properly (settling?). Anyway, we'll likely stay there again. Hopefully it will be remodeled by then.

During my recent stay at the Hyatt Place, I had a mixed experience. On the positive side, the staff at the hotel were quite cordial and accommodating, which always makes a stay more pleasant. However, there was one unsettling aspect – the hotel basin had a red stain, which was a bit creepy and made me question the cleanliness standards. One thing that surprised me was the absence of a microwave oven in the room. Even lower-tier hotels typically provide this amenity, so it was an unexpected inconvenience. On the upside, the rooms themselves were spacious and comfortable, which provided a good overall impression. In terms of the facilities, I found that the restroom didn't quite match the spaciousness of the room. It felt a bit cramped in comparison, which could be improved for a more comfortable stay. One highlight of the stay was the breakfast options. They served a variety of warm breakfast items, such as sausage, eggs, and French toast, which were delicious and a great way to start the day. Additionally, the availability of different fruit options was a nice touch.
