“Excellant place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012

Friendly and efficient desk person. Very nice clean room, reasonable rates, plus, the desk person helped me print a map of my next stop. Room had fridge, microwave, hair dryer, and coffeemaker with complimentary coffee and tea. Also free breakfast was from 6 to 9, but I slept through it! I would recommend this place to any weary traveller and I would stay here again!

“You get what you pay for”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 September 2011

I didnt get a lot for the room, but then again I didnt pay much for it either. The room was quiet, but was in definite need of some remodeling. The shower curtain had an unpleasant mildew smell to it and it appeared some amatuer attempts had been made at patching and painting parts of the room.

Probably my biggest complaint for the hotel overall is the non-smoking/smoking rooms seem to be mix and match in terms of location. Fortunately, I was in a section of many non-smoking rooms.

“Don't Stay Here.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 August 2011

Stay away from this hotel. This goes beyond "clean sheets" and "quiet rooms". The management team is unethical and lie. Don't believe their "cancellation policy". Once they have your credit card number, you won't see your money again.

Spend the money and go somewhere else. Only stayed there because they took pets. Hotel smelled like bad Indian food.

“WoW! Better than other hotels!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 April 2010

While traveling through Iowa, I needed a place to stay. I stopped at other hotels and they were over priced. Then I went to the Days Inn and found out that they had just remodeled. I had been there in the past and it was OK, so I thought that I would try it again. I stayed in room 216 and it was GREAT! IMy bed at home isn't as comfortable as the new ones that they have there. I will be back. They had new beds, new carpet, new paint, towels, everything. Chad at the front desk was wonderful.
