Although typical for a Day's Inn (with USA Today, internet, microwave, fridge, iron and board, in-room so-so coffee, and towels on the small and thin side) this one had beds dressed up a bit like more upscale ones, with extra pillows arranged at an angle over bedspread which was turned down, showing blanket encased in two sheets duvet-style. The room was decent sized, the bath small with vanity and sink in the dressing area. The place was clean, although I thought the bathroom floor was dirty until I realized that the two-tone effect on the tiles was due to a grout sealent that had been applied an inch or so onto the main tile (the grout did look clean!) The continental breakfast was generous, with ample choices including decent muffins and bagels with cream cheese, waffles, and hard-boiled eggs in addition to the usual assortment of cereals and pastries, and a dispenser of actual orange juice. (though not fresh-squeezed). A good choice for this price.

First and most importantly, this hotel was very clean. It also had great extras like free internet, free breakfast, free USA Today, microwave and fridge in the rooms, HBO. These are pretty important things for me when I consider where to stay and the Days Inn checked all the boxes. So why did I say it's not for everyone? To put it in a way my teenagers would understand - it is very "old school". Rooms are small, TV is not flat screen, one queen bed instead of a King, and most importantly the room all open to the outside and you park in front of the room. As a woman who travels A LOT on business, mostly alone, I would not have stayed here because of this. Traveling with my husband, this was not a problem. And I don't want to imply that it is not safe - because I did feel safe. But I think this is an important consideration because I expected that it would be a more typical hotel with the rooms opening on to a corridor and an entrance that is monitored. Would I stay here again with my husband? Sure - front desk was friendly, room was clean with lots of extras - and for most people this is the most important part of any hotel stay.

A Wyndham promotion attracted me to this Days Inn, and the price was right. The room was nice but not fancy and included a fridge and microwave. There were some hairs and old soap in the tub and the control for the shower was broken making it difficult to control the temperature and pressure. The doors to the rooms open to the parking lot and you have to walk outside (in the rain) to get to the breakfast room. The coffee was good and hot, the food OK but there was no cold cereal. The desk staff is friendly and accomodating. Close to the highay but not a lot of road noise. Pretty easy to get in and out. Close to restaurants and shopping.

We stayed for two nights in August 2011 and found this motel clean, comfortable and well-presented. It is located on the main Dupont Highway which bypasses Dover, close to Dover Mall and other stores and restaurants. It's not quite accurate to describe the location as "downtown", as it's at least 20 minutes' walk to the Dover Green Historic District and State House. However, the walk is pleasant and we came back via Silver Lake Park, which is literally at the back of the motel.
