Categories

Cleanliness
7.3
Many guests praised cleanliness (several called it very clean), but multiple reports of musty odors, bugs/spider webs and empty soap dispensers led to a slightly lowered score.
Service
9.2
Consistently positive mentions of friendly, helpful front desk and housekeeping staff and accommodating service; score is bumped above target to reflect repeated praise and to balance weaker room/cleanliness feedback.
Location
8.5
Several guests called the location great; one noted a noisy spot. Overall location is viewed positively and slightly elevated to help balance other negatives.
Room Quality
6.8
Multiple complaints about mattress firmness/size, back pain, door sealing (motel feel) and occasional musty smell—room quality is one of the weaker aspects.
Amenities
7
Mixed reports: pool out of order, empty soap dispensers, TV/coffee issues and basic continental breakfast described as 'meh' result in a below-target amenities score.
Value for Money
7.5
Mixed impressions: some felt the stay matched expectations for the rate, while issues like double billing and an unreturned security fee lowered perceived value; modestly increased to help balance overall rating.
Food and Beverage
8
Breakfast described variously as 'nice', 'ok' or 'meh' with generally acceptable execution (one staff praised for keeping area clean); coffee availability had some issues.
Overall Experience
8.9
Majority of guests reported a good stay and willingness to return; overall experience is positive despite specific negatives in rooms/amenities, so this category is rated above target.

Liked it, but there was were bumps.
Pros:

I liked that it was open late because we arrived much later than anticipated. The room was clean and quiet. Front desk representative was nice and pleasant although it was late at night.

Cons:

My husband did not like the mattress on the bed. It made his back hurt.

I would stay here again
Pros:

Breakfast was nice, staff was friendly and went out of their way to get me a non pet room on the ground level(even though I had accidentally checked it when making the reservations), place was clean, location was great,etc

Cons:

The beds were a bit small but comfortable. The only thing I didn’t really like was the smell of the room when we arrived. My sister had some air freshener in her car so that helped. Otherwise we had a great stay.

Cleanest little place ever!!
Pros:

This hotel was quite possibly the cleanest hotel we've ever stayed in!!!
The room was on the small side but we only wanted double size beds and was played out well. 2 sit down chairs for 2 ppl. We usually only have 1...no matter how big the room has been. We truly liked it.

Stop if you want but I would not.
Pros:

The room was updated.

Cons:

I booked this place because it had a high rating and deemed exceptional.
I did not know it was a motel until I pulled up. My mistake. The door did not seal well and allowed bugs in and humidity in. We killed 3 bugs on the walls.

Soap dispensers were completely empty. There were spider webs in the ceiling corners.

The Continental Breakfast was "meh"

Pros:

Overall experience was a good one. The room was very clean very much comfortable staff was friendly. I did not use the pool. Housekeeping was excellent. When I had to call them for some extra things overall is a good experience. I would definitely recommend the days Inn in Murphy, North Carolina.

Cons:

I can’t really give you anything that I didn’t like things were good there. I stayed in five or six motels in the last 12 days and by far that was certainly a better experience.
