My room had a water issue. Managet was proactive and called before we got there and gave us an alternative arrangement. I liked the room decor. Nice and bright. My one big negative was the electronic locks. Didn't engage/disengage at first swipe. He to play with it a little. Just a slight annoyance door did lock. Just had to work a little to get it open.

I just needed a place to sleep for a night and this was just fine. It’s not as nice as a high end hotel, but it’s at least half the price. I didn’t want or expect a high end hotel, but this one was plenty good for the price

Couldn’t reply to this query until I came home to get a WiFi connection. Needed maps to navigate unknown city. Useless connection/coverage. Not again. Would pay more if Wi-Fi was actually included in the rental cost but this seems like bait and switch. Receptionist needs to pursue improvement in speech, does not pronounce consonants which leads to misunderstanding instructions.

After trying many other reasonably priced hotels in the area, we found this Days Inn location. We have stayed here periodically when in the area for over a year and it continues to be a good value, clean, quiet and just what we need.

It was convenient for my stay. The room looked clean, and it was small, but a good size. During my stay, we were put in an upstairs non-smoking room. The person under us kept blocking the staircases to get access to our room. He also was smoking, and even with the AC on or off, we could still smell the smoke inside the room. As soon as we got outside, the smell was so intense.m, it hit us like a wall. The rooms arround us blasted music so loudly, we could hear it in our room. I woke up around midnight, and they were still playing. My partner stayed up and was able to still hear the music till 1-2am. They advertised black out curtains, but our room was facing a building with a bright light that still steeped into our room. Dining room was small, but it was kept clean. The selections for the breakfast was small, but good for the price. (Mostly breads) Overall the Room wasn't bad, but the
