I stayed at the Skyline twice, once in August of 2006 and again in December. The two visits were quite different.
The quality of your stay may well depend on which part of the hotel you stay at, the older more motel like one, or the newer section. For my August visit, we stayed in the newer section. The room was excellent--large, clean, appeared to have been recently decorated. I had no complaints.
My second visit, in December, was not quite as good. We were in the older part of the hotel, and when we got off the elevator, found there was painting going on in the hallway, with the resultant smell. I called down to the front desk to see if they coud give us a room away from the paint smell. No, they were full and had no other rooms. So we tried to settle in.
The room had a standard sort of motel look--furniture a few years out of date, a bit worn but serviceable. The room was clean but small.
The bathroom floor was bizarrely slippery even though it was dry. You could 'skate' on it. I must say, I was impressed by the lovely floral tiles on the the bathroom walls.
Once we took our shoes off, we realized that the carpet in the room was soaking wet, not just in one spot but all over. I called down to the front desk and spoke to someone else, who did find us another room. The carpet was soaking wet in this room too! I assume they had just finished cleaning the carpets. Good of them, but.
I wanted to change rooms again, but my companion didn't so we just made the best of it.
