Unsanitary and run down, found cockroaches in room and had to find an other stay in the middle of the night. Requested refund that night and was told it wouldn’t be done till the next morning. Called the next morning and staff was upset, had me on hold and call was later disconnected. Had to go in person as was told I had to wait two business days to receive refund. Was very disappointed in the quality of the room and lack of compliance from staff.

The room was nice enough for the price, and the hotel was located close to restaurants and shops. The hotel was located very close to a freeway which was convenient, but there was a lot of freeway noise at night so ear plugs might be a good idea for some. The main problem for my 13-year-old son, and I was that when we walked past the check in desk to have our enjoy our continental breakfast, there was a homeless couple at the table next to us that I guess had snuck in for a free breakfast. They were arguing because one had taken the other ones drugs, and she wanted them back! It was a bit scary for us, because those situations can turn nasty so we took our breakfast and retreated to our car to finish our toast and coffee. I mentioned it to the two staff that were at the front desk, but they didn’t do anything. Then my son and I watched from our car as the homeless guy left and continued walking up the highway. Not a nice way to end our stay. 🤔

Inexpensive but NOT a good experience
I had high hopes for Days Inn but I have to say I was very disappointed in my 5 day stay there. While this location is inexpensive, it is in need of much renovation. The front door had water damage at the bottom, the bathroom faucet was very difficult to turn on, my boyfriend fixed the bathroom faucet (room 149) because it was wonky. The bathroom sink also needs to be snaked. Moreover, the bed squeaked because it is so old and when i sat on the end of it, I noticed one end was lower than the other. All of that said, the thing that bothered me most was the loud construction noise in the room next door to mine. This started around 10:30 am and checkout time was noon. When I called the front desk to complain, I was told, "we cannot stop the renovation". Still Kimberly (the front desk person) asked them to stop and they immediately did so for exactly 30 minutes before starting up again. As far as other noise, on 2 consecutive nights, someone was blasting his stereo and I also heard loud dog barking more than once. Overall, I would say there were only two positive things about this place: 1) the continental breakfast (we made our own waffles and there were oranges, pastries and coffee otherwise). 2) Kimberly-- who is a newer front desk agent with excellent customer service skills. I am the type of person who NEVER writes negative reviews but I really felt the need to do so in this case. They really need to be more aware of the customer's experience.
