I won't recommend this place to anyone. The room was smelly, the shower curtain has mildew and the mattress is saggy. Towels are old, thin and don't smell fresh and clean. The bathroom needs thorough cleaning. However, if you are desperate for a place to stay for a night, then it would do for the price.

We had reserved a few weeks ago on points. Drove up to find it closed. Were lucky enough to find other accommodations down the road. Found out it was closed for at least five months!! They still took our reservation though! Lucky us as no credit card was charged - UNBELIEVABLE!! Will never book a Days Inn again.

This was the ABSOLUTE WORST hotel I have ever stayed in! The rooms were dirty and nasty, the cleaning crew never cleaned the shower during their daily so-called cleaning of the room, and they left the used coffee urn in my room for my entire stay. If that was not enough, the front desk staff were VERY VERY RUDE! And... More

As we got a discount and it was only $5 more than Motel 6, it was a good value. All of the staff was friendly and helpful. The room was very clean and adequate, but I didn't find the bed that comfy. (Of course, I'm used to a pillow top mattress.) I didn't care for the foam chip pillows. The... More

We had a great time at the Days Inn in Arcata. The best part was the bar and Killer Smoke,...Oh my gosh. If you want great smoked ribs, this is the palce to go. The smoker sits right out front of the motel. You can smell the meat smoking as you pull in to the parking lot. The hot wings,... More

I travel with a budget. I am glad the Days Inn is right next to a grocery store and a buffett restaurant. The room size is okay, typical contenental breasfast with fruits. We slept well except I felt the carpet was not cleaned very well.

Walls were thin, we heard televisions and our neighbors talking throughout the night. When another room is taking a shower it is very noisy throughout. The beds were pretty uncomfortable and there was not enough counter or table space to place anything. Bathroom was incredibly small. However, it was the best priced hotel in Arcata and within walking distance to... More

We checked Hotwire for hotels in the area and this one came up for a decent rate. Read a manager response on here and he asked people to come in and ask for the managers special walk in rate. We went to the hotel and asked but it was about $20 more than the Hotwire (through hotels.com) rate. I asked... More

I stayed at the Days Inn because I found a coupon for it -- you know, in one of those free highway coupon books I look forward to whenever I cross into a new state. Usually it works out fine. In this case, it was a mistake. First off, it was a bit of a shoddy property, across two parking... More
