Horrible rooms

As far as the customer service, it was phenomenal, but the room itself was horrific. The first room that I was in. Sewage was coming out from the drainage where the shower is….and when I moved into a different room, it smelt great. It looked great, but the air conditioner did not work. I had to borrow a fan from the front desk just so my boyfriend and I won’t be hot. I don’t think that I would stay at Days Inn by Wyndham Durham/Near Duke University again.

Difficult to find the facility ( located behind gas station and another hotel), needs renovations, adjoining room door did not fully close- had to jam a chair up against the door knob, the room smelled terrible. Only regular electric outlets- no usb ports for charging. On a positive note, AC worked great, bathroom sink looked new and was very clean. Would not stay here again unless I was desperate.

The door to our room opened without the key. Management worked quickly to get us a new room, and were very nice. The faucet in the tub incessantly leaked and had to throw a towel down so we wouldn’t have to hear it. Door didn’t seem to shut all the way and showed the light from the outside.

This whole facility seems to be on his last legs. The grounds are a shambles. We had to let the water run for more than 10 minutes in order to get hot water to the taps. But it was quiet, and the bed was comfortable.

Dark-Days Inn

The pool was the best part. Breakfast was being handed a small paper bag full of bodega snacks. Found a dead roach in the bathroom when we first got there. You could see the crust in the bathroom. There was a weird smell in the corner of the room. Heard similar stories from other guests we met at the pool.

The room was clean and we had hot water. This property is in desperate need of maintenance. There were bulges in the ceiling from previous leaks, mold in the bathroom fixtures, the smoke detector was in the nightstand and most outlets weren’t operational. The property next door had drug and police activity one night. I would not want to stay here without my husband due to safety concerns.
