Teacher: You are given a review about a place. You need to provide a rating from "1 star" to "5 stars" for this place.
Teacher: Now, understand the problem? If you are still confused, see the following example:
Although I did enjoy the food here, I was completely unimpressed (and slightly annoyed) by the overpriced margaritas. I ordered a platinum which contained "fresh" juice. It tasted like it had sprite in it, so I thought surely she gave me the wrong one. It turns out that "fresh juice" is really margarita mix on tap from the same gun as the sprite. I asked for something fresh to replace the horrible margarita and received a rocks glass with just muddled lime and a salted rim. I'm not sure it contained any tequila. Horrible! It's not that hard to make a fresh margarita!
Solution: 2 stars
Reason: The writer has been annoyed in this place and has enjoyed the food. So, "2 stars" sounds reasonable for it.

Now, solve this instance: I had to go to Phoenix and was looking for an affordable hotel near downtown. The Wyndham had a special on Suns game nights, with a rate of $79/night. A step up from Motel 6 and way cheaper than the Sheraton, so I booked it.

I arrived around 10pm and there weren't many people in the lobby (which is quite swanky, by the way). However, their machines were down and they had to hand-write all of my information to check in. No problem, even though it took a little while. They gave me a key and I headed upstairs.

Let's just say that whatever renovations they've done do not include the hallways. The ceilings are very low and everything just looks really drab and dated. I get to the door, put in my key card, and no dice. Call downstairs and they say they'll send someone up. Well, five minutes later the security guy comes in and keys me into my room but I still have to go downstairs to get a new key.

I got one of the renovated rooms, which looks nice with the same polka-dot and square motif as the lobby. Nice big headboard and peppy green wallpaper in the bathroom. But... the TV doesn't work. And then I try calling an 800 number to change my flight and the in room phone doesn't work. That eventually got resolved but I couldn't really take advantage of anything in the room except the bed...

And the bed was comfortable. I could have gotten a good night sleep. Except that at 5am I start hearing a conversation. Like really loudly, as if there is a group of four people talking right in my ear. I realized that the room adjacent to mine had a group of girls who were getting ready and the soundproofing was so bad that I could hear every single word. When I checked out the concierge asked me how my stay was and I noted this. He said that after renovations they've realized that there are some soundproofing issues because they replaced parts of carpeting with tile and also left larger gaps under the door.

Also, the water pressure in the shower was mediocre but worse, I couldn't get the water hotter than "slightly above luke warm." On top of that, most of the staff that I encountered (between check-in, changing my key, checking out, etc.) were rather unfriendly.

So nice lobby and aesthetically pleasing rooms. But if you want to do what you came to the hotel for - i.e., sleep - then go elsewhere.
