Days Inn

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 09 Jun 2011 rated 2 out of 10.

No self-respecting person should stay at this hotel. All I expected was an older, nothing fancy hotel that was clean and everything worked.

Positives: The manager switched us to a room for no extra charge that did not smell as much like the coat of a wet dog.

Negatives: Filth, moisture damage, broken latches, holes in comforter, strong odor, shoddy repairs, pretty predictable, and disappointment everywhere you look.

The hotel address for this hotel does not match where it is.

Positives: Had a great breakfast that was complimentary.

Negatives: This was the hardest hotel to find. I spent two hours looking for it.

The staff is nice and helpful. The hotel is a dump.

Positives: The continental breakfast was nice.

Negatives: It was dark and had roaches.

We were traveling with 5 grandkids to meet our son half way. He lives in North Carolina and we live in Texas. We were taking his kids back to him after a summer visit. I chose a 2 and a half star hotel. I didn't expect luxury, but I did expect something decent and clean. The first rooms we got only had one bed each - for 4 adults and 5 kids? They charged us extra for 2 more rooms with double beds. The next 2 rooms the air conditioners were not working very well, the rooms were hot and the AC was already on high. The next 2 rooms, one had a HUGE hole in the floor under the carpet the other room smelled very badly like mildew. When I called the front desk we were told "just don't let the kids walk where the hole is at". After some rude words, they finally switched us to another room, except it was on a different floor. We specifically told them we wanted the rooms together. After switching rooms several times, we finally got two rooms next to each other. The beds were lumpy as were the pillows. The light in one bathroom didn't work. The rooms still smelled, but just not as bad. Everything was dirty and/or dingy. It rained very hard outside. The rain came in through the closed window in both rooms. We had to use the towels to keep the rain from running on the carpet. Then the cleaning lady got mad when we asked for more towels! My husband and I both sleep with C-PAP machines. We had to plug them into 2 different outlets. Both outlets would come completely out of the wall when we plugged them in and unplugged them. The grand daddy of them all: we had to get our room keys reprogrammed 9 times for a one day stay. I have severe Rheumatoid Arthritis. The trip alone was hard on my body. My husband has a bad back. But we had to keep taking turns walking down the hall to the elevator, then down another long hall to the front desk to get our room keys reprogrammed and then back. I think they were having a bit of fun with that. We weren't. We have no.

Positives: Nothing.

Negatives: Poor quality, not clean, windows leaking water, unfriendly staff.

The hotel was ok but was not a 2 star hotel. I have stayed in 1 star hotels that were cleaner, quieter and that had better breakfast.

Positives: I liked the location.

Negatives: I did not like pool noise and the breakfast was not very good.

This hotel was nasty. When I say that we had to fight the roaches I mean just that they were coming from everywhere. If it would not have been 3 AM when we arrived I would have not stayed at this hotel. I could have stayed in a truck stop bathroom and felt more clean.

Positives: I didn't like anything about this hotel.

Negatives: Roaches were everywhere, hot, dirty.

I would recommend this hotel and would stay here again. The customer service was outstanding. The hotel was nicer then I thought it would be. We really had a great time!

Positives: The customer service was awesome!

Negatives: I could hear people walking upstairs all night.

They slapped on a coat of paint and made the lobby pretty - unfortunately, they neglected the rooms.

Positives: Easy to find.

Negatives: Hard uncomfortable beds. Stained carpets.

Nice comfortable room with microfridge and a good quick start breakfast. Great location for seeing Mobile.

Positives: Easy to find and quick start breakfast.

Negatives: Stair ways and halls in bad repair.

It was horrible. The person who was giving directions didn't sound like they even knew how to speak English, then when I did understand what they said they gave the wrong directions, the room was not clean from the previous person and it was a waste of money.

Positives: It was a place to sleep.

Negatives: It was dirty, unfriendly.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 09 Jul 2008 rated 1 out of 10.

This hotel is very deceiving. Upon check-in the lobby is beautiful. Once you get to the hallway where the rooms start it was downhill from there. There was a constant stinky smell or mildew/mold; in both the hallways and room itself. The bathroom was absolutely filthy. There was used soap still in place and hairs all over the place! The floors were damp looking and absolutely dirty. I wouldn't allow my child to walk on these floors without socks at all times and they always ended up completely filthy. We will never stay at another Days Inn again.

Positives: Nothing.

Negatives: The room stunk, bathroom was always dirty, floors were filthy, etc.

We slept well. The rooms were clean and neat with new carpet - the halls and pool areas could have been cleaned more often. Good location - I would stay there again.

Positives: Recently remodeled, new carpet, cold AC, good location.

Negatives: The hallways needed to be cleaned more often. Couldn't understand the desk clerk.

This hotel has not been updated since it was built in the 70s. The bathroom was small and dingy. The safety lock had been broken off the first room we were given like the door had been kicked in. The hairdryer did not work in the room and took a long time for a replacement to be found.

Positives: Nothing.

Negatives: Bad service, bad staff attitude, outdated room safety concern.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 05 Jun 2008 rated 2 out of 10.

I could not sleep the beds were HORRIBLE, it was hot in the room because the air did not work.

Positives: Nothing.

Negatives: Everything.

This location was not kept up at all. The rooms were extremely old. I ended up sleeping on the floor one night because the beds were so uncomfortable. My son, after crawling on the floor, ( age 1) was covered in black. The perimeter of the campus seemed unsafe.

Positives: It was in a central location.

Negatives: Not clean, incredibly outdated, beds were worn slap out, not a comfortable stay at all.

This hotel was very nice and kept. Our Jacuzzi suite was very nice! The only thing that I did not like was there wasn't any air in the hallways walking to your rooms. It was like 90 degrees in them. Other than that it was a great location and a wonderful staff. We kept messing our electronic strip up in our keys and they always fixed them without a problem!

Positives: The Jacuzzi suite was huge and very nice and very clean.

Negatives: There wasn't any air in the hall ways, it was almost 90 degrees in the hall ways but our room was cold.

However, I found the recent remodel very clean, staff was accommodating, and the breakfast of waffles and cereal was filling. The breakfast lacked fruit. The location was excellent with easy access to i-65 and i10. Weather was beautiful, and the pool was a plus. Their wireless access worked flawlessly, and the staff cleaned our room daily. The microwave and refrigerator provided an opportunity to save on eating out. We were attending the USTA Super Seniors Nationals, and the hotel provided an easy 7 minute ride to the mobile tennis center.

Positives: Great service, clean rooms, superior location, great breakfast, recent remodels looks great.

Negatives: Breakfast should include fruit and yogurt.

The hotel stay was good. It is a great two star hotel: clean, good beds, good linen, etc. The breakfast, however, is not good. It is merely continental at best and has only one waffle maker machine.

Positives: Cleanliness of rooms.

Negatives: Extra price for double rooms and poor breakfast selection.

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 29 Apr 2008 rated 7 out of 10.

Very acceptable for myself. Room and bed comfortable. Common areas such as hallways could have been cleaner.

Positives: Great wireless internet.

Negatives: Common areas needed to be vacuumed.

Very poor. I had a bad experience both nights. This hotel should not be considered a 2 star. I am very disappointed.

Positives: It was close to my location.

Negatives: Horrible breakfast and poor cleanliness.

The Days Inn was a poor experience. Upon checking in the clerk gave me a smoking room which reeked heavily. I returned and asked for non-smoking, and he responded that no non-smoking room existed except for rooms with two double beds, which he told me would be an additional 10 dollars! Given that the parking lot was only a quarter full I did not believe this, but he refused to work with me. Also, the rooms were quite dirty and dusty.

Positives: There was nothing to like about this hotel.

Negatives: Very dirty rooms; smoking rooms only; very unhelpful staff.
