“Excellent mattress & enough light to read by”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 February 2011

I have stayed in hostelries where a lousy mattress ruined my sleep so the king-sized, pillowtop, firm mattress at this Days Inn made my stay. Our clean, spacious room included a couch, desk, bureau, flat-screen TV, microwave, refrigerator, plenty of mirrors, and even enough lamps with sufficient wattage to read by! Yes, the motel is by a freeway exit but rooms away from the street are quiet enough for sleeping. The drawbacks? A heater too noisy to sleep with and no heater in the bathroom. Also, the new(ish) black & silver furniture has a '70s vibe, and not in a hip retro way. But the front desk clerks are friendly and the wi-fi actually works so I give it a thumbs up and call it a bargain as well.

“A plush Days Inn - much better than Midwest ones”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 February 2011

This is a wonderful Days Inn, with stuffed, comfortable rooms. I visited for one night, and will stay here again. The nearby Vanguard Bingo Hall is a 2-3 miles drive, and after a 5-hour volunteer evening selling Flash, the restful bed is just what I needed.

I've been to several Midwest Days Inns, and they all pale in comparison to this wonderful property.

The one big regret came at check-in. After sharing my Illinois driver's license with the young woman at the desk, she remarked, "There sure are a lot of black people in Chicago."

“Good rooms for price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2011

Place was good for what we paid. Attended a sharks game and was fairly close. Taxi was about 15$ one way to HP Pavillion. Girl at front desk was great with getting us a taxi and a weather report for morning. Breakfast is nuthing great but had fruit and bagels to tie us over till lunch. Room was set up good, only problem was the juccuzzi tub had grime in jets, so never used so next time would skip on the upgrade. Just showered instead.

“Pretty nice for a good price”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 September 2010

We were happy with the Days Inn. The staff was friendly and the room was clean (aside from the bathroom, which had some mildew) and comfortable. They even offered a computer in the lobby for guests to check emails, which was very convenient.
The continental breakfast was your basic bagels, cereal, apples, coffee, tea.... but was laid out nicely.
