Categories

Cleanliness
3
Multiple reviews report serious cleanliness problems (feces on bed, blood stain, cockroach, strong mold smell in places). While some guests called rooms 'super clean', the documented severe hygiene issues drive a low score.
Service
8.5
Generally friendly and helpful front-desk staff noted in many reviews and easy check-in experiences; however, there are isolated negative interactions and a report of poor manager responsiveness that lower the score slightly.
Location
9
Frequently described as convenient and within walking distance of stores and restaurants; multiple guests highlighted the good location.
Room Quality
7.5
Mixed feedback: some guests praised large, clean rooms, while others noted issues (old A/C, hole in floor, noisy fridge, smelly pillows) that reduce the room quality rating to a moderate level.
Amenities
7.5
Amenities are present (pool, hot tub), but there are recurring problems (hot tub foaming, no elevator, entry/lock concerns, pool-adjacent rooms with musty smell) that temper the score.
Value for Money
9.5
Several guests called the price affordable and felt the stay was a good value, with explicit mentions of willingness to return at this rate.
Food and Beverage
7
Breakfast is available but described as limited (pre-made omelets, few choices) and could be improved; not entirely negative but below excellent.
Overall Experience
8
Guest experiences vary widely—from repeat satisfied guests and helpful staff to severe cleanliness incidents. The overall picture is mixed-positive due to strong location/value and service offsets despite major cleanliness concerns.

Roach Motel
Pros:

When first walking in it appears clean. Once in the room, I noticed feces in the side of the bed, a blood stain on the fitted sheet. I killed a cockroach there also. When I talked to lady at front desk, she told me it was not a cockroach. It most certainly was. The front desk clerk could not put me in touch with a manager, no email, no number, nothing. I asked her to take my name and number and have him get in touch with me. She told me she could not do that for a few days, she had something going on that night and then court the following day. I was shocked she could not connect with the manager while working. She made it sound like she could only contact him in the evening because, he was at another hotel working. There was no help for our issues, I cleaned the feces off the bed myself. Never was told there wasn't an elevator, wandered around with two handicapped people looking. Finally had to ask. Had to have room switched from second to first floor. Room was right by pool and smelled musty. Took your breath away when walking in.

Pros:

Our room wasn't in very good shape. Old A/C unit and a hole in the floor between the bathroom and living area. The exhaust fan in the bathroom didn't work. Also the fridge sounded like a washing machine, very annoying. It was hard to sleep. The pillows also smelled. Not very happy with our stay.

Super clean for an older place!
Pros:

The first thing we noticed when we walked into the building that our room was in was how CLEAN everything smelled! The room was super clean, and well stocked with extra towels for the hot tub in our room. The staff we encountered were so friendly and helpful. If you're looking for a clean, no frills place, this os absolutely perfect!

Pros:

Alpena is a small town. We had never been there so deciding on a place to stay wasn't easy. We could not have been more pleased with this Wyndham Days Inn. It was in walking distance to a Wal-mart, Applebees, and several other stores. That was nice. Also the room was huge in size compared to other places we stayed. We stayed 5 nights and would do it again!
