We had a mixup in airline reservations and had to spend an extra night in the Phoenix area and chose this Day's Inn. It looked very good in the photos, was close to the airport and had a free shuttle, and the price was reasonable.

This was not a good choice. Other than the free airport shuttle (which arrived 25 minutes late), the free internet, and a decent bed, there is nothing that I would recommend about this hotel. Once inside, the room proved to be threadbare (carpet pulling up, wallpaper peeling, and cobwebs on the ceiling to name a few). My wife found the room to be so dirty (especially the tub and toilet area) that she would most likely never stay in a Day's Inn again. She made this statement after seeing that the hotel chain had given this motel 5 stars the previous year.

If price is all that matters, this hotel might be okay. Otherwise, stay away.

I was traveling with my 16 month old baby, 20 minutes after check in I noticed that his knees, hands and feet were black with filth. I thought it was the carpet, but just to make sure I washed him off and put him back down. Within another 20 minutes he was filthy again. I called the front desk for a room change, they told me it would be a while, called back an hour later, was told that it would be a little bit longer. After waiting 3 hours, the baby was covered in filth, I carried him down to the front desk, plopped my dirty kid on the counter and told them I'd wait for my new room right there. (Great way to start a vacation, huh?)

Finally, we get the new room, and wouldn't you know it.... it's filthy too. We stayed there 3 nights, had prepaid for 4 more nights, but couldn't stand the filth. We were all starting to get sick, my guess is that the sickness was caused by the filth because after we checked out, the sickness went away.

Other than the carpet induced filth and illness, the place was still a dump. Bathroom light wouldn't come on, thin and stained towels, needed caulk and paint everywhere and the internet only worked if you sat out by the pool.

At first I couldnt find the hotel since the address changed - or it has two addresses. Nonetheless, the hotel is surrounding by...nothing. If you want a bite to eat, to shop, or you need to meet someone you will need a car! The hotel itself is run of the mill. I doubt you will be interested in swimming in the pool as it is out in the open for everyone to see.
Overall not so great

This place is in dire need of some quality control. Mold in the bathroom area and non-smoking room smelled from smoke. Got out of the shower and my feet got black from walking on the filthy carpet. Be careful when you stand in the tub for a shower as the non-slip has worn off. Showers are made for people under 6 feet tall. Place needs a good coat of paint and the corners sealed in the shower. Sink would not drain, and I had to turn off the water supply to the toilet tank as it kept running all night. Light bulbs were burnt out and remote did not work for t.v. Great transit system, right outside the door. No decent restaurants within short walking distance.
