Travelled with family and small children, Business traveller
Worse experience ever! When we got to our room, we noticed the blinds were broken and could not go down. I immediately asked for a room change but was told they were booked. It was pretty late at night and we were tired. I asked for a solution and was given a bed sheet and some thumb tacks. The whole night I could not sleep because there was so much light shining in from the street lights. The next morning we found a live cockroach crawling around. To add, we felt unsafe because there were so many homeless roaming around and the room is not securely made, I can hear everything out of my door and was also paranoid and annoyed.
The floors and ceiling were dirty in the room. The faucet in the shower dripped and wouldn’t shut off. It was very noisy and I did not feel safe given the people staying in and around the property

Liked: Staff & service
I wanna say that I love this hotel and staying at this location for many years even before it was the days inn! But for days inn it's pretty rundown in certain rooms, my room had no refrigerator, a plastic lawn chair in the room, art missing off the wall, and there were no towels when I got to my room. NOW I've have stayed in some rooms that were really nice., and I love the location. This hotel probably has one of the best staffs ever very friendly welcoming. But this is more like a cheap motel six than a day inn. But I'll continue to stay there cause I love the location and the hotel.
