We arrived to this hotel at 4:00 am after a long day of driving and gladly paid full price for a room. At 11:05 we were awoke by a hotel staff member standing in the room looking at us asleep in our beds.

We've not had great luck with Days Inns and this was no exception. For those who smoke (not us) they do have smoking rooms and a sort of game room with pool table, etc. The room seemed clean and was comfortable but towards morning we were awakened by the scrabbling of a mouse.

Pro: Beds were comfortable. Place was clean enough. Con: for the money, the place was older and outdated. Breakfast had few choices, Not even real orange juice. Weak coffee. Food low quality not very good. Said breakfast ended at 9 so I jumped out of bed only to find out they continued to serve until 10. That hour of sleeping... More
