Cleanliness
7
Many guests praised clean rooms, bedding and towels and several called the property very clean; however there are multiple reports of carpet stains, damp rugs, odd bathroom smells and one report of bed bugs that lowered confidence.
Service
8.5
Staff are frequently described as helpful, friendly and accommodating (early check-in, assistance for elderly guests); there is one significant complaint about staff demanding payment and holding a room which tempers an otherwise strong service record.
Location
8.5
Multiple guests liked the location (near Walmart, restaurants and local points of interest); one comment noted the property can be awkward to enter/exit due to nearby chain businesses.
Room Quality
7.8
Beds and bedding are frequently described as comfortable with working TVs; some rooms had issues (strange smells, damp rugs, bathroom cleanliness concerns) and lack of elevator affected guests needing ground-floor rooms.
Amenities
8
Property offers useful in-room amenities (microwave, fridge), pool and hot tub and generally clean public restrooms; Wi-Fi strength and breakfast variety were inconsistent across reviews.
Value for Money
8.5
Several guests called the hotel affordable and said it served its purpose well for the price; overall perceived as good value despite isolated negative experiences.
Food and Beverage
7.5
Breakfast received mixed feedback — some guests praised variety and quality, others reported limited options; overall food offerings are adequate but not outstanding.
Overall Experience
8.2
Most stays were described positively with guests willing to return; a minority of serious negatives (bed bugs, rude staff/payment issue, smells) lowered some experiences but overall sentiment is favorable.

Pleasure to stay at staff was very nice and accommodated my needs with no problems.
Pros:

Clean rooms were nice liked that they had full size products for showers less waste for environment.

Cons:

Easy to get in and out of hotel. Staff was helpful and allowed us to check in early to get to a wedding and they gave us a room on main level. I had surgery on my leg and couldn’t walk up stairs yet.

Days Inn is always a pleasant stay!
Pros:

Nice, friendly, as well as patient front desk staff! The public restrooms were very clean. I didn't use the pool area but it was really nice and clean. Breakfast was really good and there was a lot of variety.

Cons:

Location is hard to get in and out of being across from large chain businesses. However this is not the hotels fault.
